Purpose

It is important to ask what your uniform says about your art.
What function does it serve?
Do you wear it for comfort, ease of movement, tradition?

If your intention is showmanship, then wear a shiny, bright suit. But do not think of this as being 'traditional'.
Gaudy, theatrical outfits were not traditional martial arts wear in China.
Such costumes are for performance art, not combat.
