Pass. But I do have to say that I don't like that look very much myself, even if it is well accepted and very traditional

But then again this is not about following "rules". It is about knowing what the traditions are, what the current fashions are, and then pleasing yourself. At least if you do something others would not normally do you are doing so knowingly, not out of ignorance of the customs
