I used to wear a chainmail shirt to elementary school. The teachers never knew what to do about it because there was no section in our dress code forbidding medieval armor.
In some ways, having absolutely no concept of self-consciousness and being utterly oblivious to social norms was a blessing… I did as I pleased and wound up with a cornucopia of funny stories from my childhood.
On the other hand, in retrospect it’s no surprise that I was bullied so much.
