Scotus,
Thanks for the compliment
I do believe that brightly polished chrome / silver waist plates should only be worn for evening/formal occasions. However I think that dull pewter, antique brass, and some colored enamelled ones can work with day wear. Though I'm not sure how traditional or long these types of waist plates have been around.
I think it has also do do with what other items are worn with the outfit. If one is wearing a tie then I think an antique brass waist plate is perfectly acceptable.
Cheers
