what kilt hose to wear?

[Bugbear]

Would it be wrong, in formal attire, to wear solid colored hose with a contrastingly colored hose cuff?

For example, black hose with a gray cuff. I'm thinking of the STM's Royal Cuff kilt hose.

If there is an issue with skin tone and a color it can be buffered with a favorable color between it and the showing skin. One is probably already wearing a black formal jacket which is buffered by the white shirt.

And as I posted above, I understand that it is best to wear tartan or diced hose with the formal outfit.
