Talk:Unisex clothing

old talk
I think this should be "Unisex dress", not "Unisex Dress" by Wikipedia convention. Am I correct? -220.245.253.81 (talk) 08:31, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

Kilt not unisex only men wear it.Epicwolfman (talk) 20:00, 24 November 2012 (UTC)

Example given
Not sure the example of "a shirt and pants" is all that great. A man would not normally wear a shirt or pants made to be worn by a woman, and if a woman wears a shirt or pants made to be worn by a man, then the fit would likely not be too good. If a fit man and a fit woman each dressed themselves in a shirt and pants in order to appear stylish and attractive, then the result would not be too "unisex" in practice, even though they are wearing somewhat similar garments. The classic 1970s quasi-unisex clothing item was the jumpsuit... AnonMoos (talk) 21:12, 25 December 2013 (UTC)

"Professional clothing tends to be unisex."
Not sure what that sentence was intended to mean in context. Some kinds of skilled tradesmen (plumbers, electricians) can wear effectively unisex clothing (i.e. overalls, hard hats, and rubber boots), but clothing of "professionals" in the more usual sense (doctors, lawyers etc.) is not usually unisex (leaving aside surgical scrubs). In the United States, social norms did not allow women to wear trousers to office jobs until the late 1960's, and only women in low-status clerical jobs wore trousers to office jobs into the 1990s...

Maybe emphasis should be on the actual period of the main Unisex fad (late 1960s / early 1970s), rather than the 1890s. AnonMoos (talk) 04:24, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
