Brown sporran with eveningwear?

[Luke MacGillie]

I guess I’m more curious about how rigid this convention is, or should be. Here’s a fashion designer in what appears to be a brown velvet tuxedo with brown shoes and black bow tie and lapels. It breaks several “rules” simultaneously, but I rather like the overall effect:

There is no accounting for bad taste, except in the pocket books of designers who try and sell such tripe to the public and a loss of social capital of the wearers. Appearing in such should lead to public snubs, and a distinct tapering off of invitations to social events, perhaps even hosts recalling invitations for already RSVP'd events. We don't do shame anymore, and that is a shame.
