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
