Hello everyone!
In my WW1-WW2 collection I've a Black Watch military kilt, and I would love to set up a dummy with him.

Currently I haven't any BD, only shirts; I was thinking to realize a summer setup. It is correct put the shirt inside the kilt, and then add on accoutrements?
What do you advise me to add?

Some examples from the web (I know it's not a Black Watch :roll:)

In this pics I mean the setup in the background

It would be correct only wear the shirt or is it better that I get a BD?

Kilts were not commonly worn in WW2. In fact the Scottish regiments stopped wearing them in combat before the Canadians. Pipers would still wear them and evidence suggests that shirt sleeves are acceptable in warm weather.
