And if they are exclusive rather than prescriptive β as were many laws from history that dictated how people of different rank could dress β they do demonstrate that our clothing choices are still influenced by outside forces.
The precedents are endless. Upper-class Grecian women were banned from wearing embroidered robes in the 7th century BC, lest they be mistaken for prostitutes. Money talks, too. The Elizabethan law of stating that all men aged six and above who were not gentlemen should wear a cap was an attempt to boost the wool trade; and clothing materials were rationed during the Second World War to save supplies.
But an arguably misplaced paternalism can also play a part. Nowadays, rules, regulations and customs about clothing are as widespread and politically charged as ever. The arguments for preserving decency or national security, and creating social cohesion remain. And though Tudor sumptuary laws have been scrapped and social codes relaxed, clothing has lost none of its old symbolism.
Why, otherwise, would some supermarkets have banned the wearing of pyjamas in supermarkets in recent years? Why else would some establishments bar young men wearing baggy trousers with their underwear showing over the top? In the current political climate, though, nothing is quite as controversial as the head-coverings worn by many Muslim women, which are subject to varying restrictions or diktats across the European continent and Islamic nations.
