The matador uses a cape, either the capote or muleta, as a lure and decoy to attract the bull. The bull has never before encountered a man on foot and assumes the cape is part of the man and charges at its motion. However, the bull quickly learns that he is being deceived and if the animal is not killed within a short time, the matador will be in serious trouble.
It is just the custom. Rose colored stockings are not required, however. Former matador Jesus Solorzano from Mexico was noted for wearing almost any color stockings - green seeming to be his favorite color
The costume, called a traje de luces (suit of lights) has been traditional for many years. It is not a dress. It is very tight fitting so no loose parts of it will get snagged on the horns of the bull. The rose colored stockings are also traditional but there is no rule that they be of that color. Matador Jesus Solorzano was a bit of a non-conformist and would often wear green or some other color during the corrida.
Matadors can wear almost any color they wish. However, because of superstitions, many will not wear a red suit or traje de luces.
Yellow or pink is good with grey No socks though

Yes to some shades of purple. Pink socks, instead may look too daring. If you like that color you must go for it, that's my philosophy, you just have to wear it with confidence to pull it off as a fashion statement, so stick to purple until you feel ready for pink socks ;).

They make pink socks because pink socks rule! Also, because they make socks in almost every color, so they can't leeave ppinkk out can they?
