Yes, it works very well. Here in An Tir, I've only gotten a few
comments, mostly about my husband's lack of non-mundane pants, from
humorous, well-meaning people. On the other hand, it seems that, at
every event we go to, there is an obligatory cast of characters who look
like they aren't even trying! I always make it a point to sit by them
and remember, for myself, that some of us approach the SCA from the
costuming/clothing angle and some do not. It's a very welcoming place
and, in the end, nobody who gives you any crap is really worth listening
to. :)

Suzi,
"I'm new" is a great defense.
SCA Rules ask only that their members make an *attempt* at period
clothing. You've gone well above and beyond that. HUZZAH you! :-D

Hi, I have been reading the differing opinions about what to wear.
Hadn't thought about the few snobs that I had run into. Usually, no
one would hassle you. Especially since you will be new to the
group. I
have been playing for 3 years and most people have been most kind,
even
those who would correct something that was "wrong" with my garb. So
go
out watch, enjoy the event, check out the arts and science, and most
of
all have fun. Sincerely, theresa
