Whoever thought that a game that follows very, very strict rules would have a strict dress code, time code, ethics code, or any other kind of code? Oh, that's right, anybody smart enough to play chess well. Fucking duh.
Sticklers gonna stickle, or let all adults play nude to wearing anything.

Go on then, show us which rule she broke.
We'll wait.
