Well said!
There is a vast difference between knowing the rules and willingly pushing the edge of them (accepting possible consequences*), and ignorance of the rules and believing that what you are doing is just fine.
Most of the time I like traditional kilt outfits. But every now and then it is fun to show up to an event in my all black kilted outfit (black kilt, shirt, hose, flashes, and accessories with only chrome/silver accents to contrast).
Definitely not traditional, but I know this and am making a concious choice to go agaisnt the grain. I'll take the kudos and criticisms of such an outfit knowing that I am bending the rules here a little.
