I’ve been a self employed massage therapist for 10 years and have been wearing a black T-shirt and black pants every work day. I never have to worry about what to wear, all my clothes are darks, you can’t see stains and I’m always color coordinated. On my off days I wear a black T-shirt and jeans. What is important to me are my shoes, jackets and hats :)
It goes back much further than Medieval times! Ancient Greeks and Romans wore very simple clothes draped around the body or fastened with clasps and brooches. Usually made of wool or linen, the tunic was the most basic item of clothing for men, women and children. Only male citizens of Rome were allowed to wear togas, a large piece of cloth made from wool around 18 feet long and 6 feet wide, worn over a plain white linen tunic it was draped across the shoulders, around the body and over one arm, togas were extremely expensive and not a very practical garment but it was Roman. The Ancient Greeks and Romans never wore pants and equated the wearing of pants with savagery. Pants were originally associated with the Persians, Scythians, Sarmatians, Eastern and Central Asian peoples. Romans thought that wearing pants was a sign of barbarism and found them so ridiculous that in 397 CE, pants were declared illegal in the city of Rome by the Senate. The ban was repeated twice, and dire penalties were threatened against anyone depraved enough to wear trousers in public. they felt the same about closed toed shoes as their traditional shoe was the sandal.
When I was in Catholic elementary school so many years ago, uniforms were required for all students. The boys wore khaki pants and shirts with a black bow tie. We looked like little service station attendants in training. If you remember the ‘50’s then you know what I mean, if not then Google it. On the rare days when the rules where relaxed I remember that we all wore pretty much the same thing. T-shirts, jeans and sneakers.
@@romanski5811 At the time I remembered we all complained about having to wear the same thing every day. As I grew older and had kids of my own I thought it was a great idea. The overall cost was lower and the time needed to select what to put on I the morning for school would have been eliminated. Today, I rarely look back at my childhood school days and I can’t say that my feelings for uniforms was good or bad.
This was good. I moved to a city with a more eclectic social code of dress and I've experienced a subtle sense of relief and freedom. I don't care what you're wearing, I DO care if you stink. That's it.
life expectancy has increased, quality of life has improved, leisure has increased... all of all these situations seem to make people more interested in clothes..The demand for purchasing clothes more reasonably is likely to increase...the value of clothes will be expressed in various ways.. we live in the world where individual expressions are important..the way people express themselves will be imposing their value^^
You look at the US politicians, especially ones that are male, they all wear the exact same thing. In comparison, look at the politicians in the Indian parliament.
Under most of the Ottoman rule, it wasn't allowed to wear colors that represents other ethnicities or religions, hood of other professions etc., (of course via a practical judgement of others/authorities letting some reasonable pace of evolution sneaking into the rule )
I can see reasons for mandating some ways of dressing, safety, hygiene, indicators of belonging to a groupe, there are practical reasons for it. There can be conflicts, such as the hijab, which can be used to hide ones identity. Fashion sence seems to be something you have or you don't , many don't so they tend to follow the trends. Ironically the trends seem to be created and spread by young people, say 11 to 15. At that age they tend to try new style of dress maybe as an attempt to establish an identity, I don't know. But pay attention to what your children wear that is their choice and different. It may or may not catch on, but if it does it will move up the age line. This likely happens as older people wanting to appear younger. Then there's provocative clothing, which can cause all sorts of discussion regarding what appropriate or not, what's offensive or not. Popular opinion often wins out, Hooters restaurant is a good example, the girls working there make very good money in tips which wouldn't happen is they all wore baggy coveralls. There's practical clothing, many motorcycle riders wear leather, for a reason, You come off your bike at highway speeds you better not be wearing beach attire.
2:16 good for him 6:20 bill wasn't covering up a body brace. 8:05 because that is proper attire. 8:30 they are silly. why does he talk Like he's begging mommy for a cookie. also that is not proper "ted hands" use he stands like he's going to make a break for it at any second or drop one. you'd never know from my dress that I am super successful. in fact you probably won't even notice me.
Is there some kind of worldwide gas leak? I've been reading the strangest stuff online these last few days. WHAT are you talking about? Or have I suddenly lost my ability to understand the written word??

I'd like to read more of this professor.
He has a book called Dress Codes that was published last year.

Hello frm Mauritius,
Very interesting.
Very fun and interesting 🙏🏻🌹
This talk is good, very informative, but the end was kinda weak.
Denzel should play this guy in the movie lol
The province of Quebec has a law preventing women from wearing hijab. A teacher was forced to leave her teaching position due to this Quebec law.
Great law. You should be ready to assimilate if you chose to become a citizen of another country.
@@RTL2L I agree.
This is why i never wear anything
😆
Very interesting. Sorry its over.
