This is kinda stupid, and just for “culture” but I sometimes see women wearing overall or jumpsuit are fashion accessories, but when male do so it’s professional clothe (and sometimes sport clothe).
It’s seems that if a man over 10 year old wear an overall of a jumpsuit it’s a professional attire rather than a fashion thing. I am not really sure on why it totally skip the “male fashion step” ? I get that the “plumber overall” isn’t really that of a dream, but a pilot jumpsuit seems like many men’s dream job.
Are you just trying to make actual sense out of fashion? Good luck.
It would be easier to understand, if it was making an sens :)
It’s work safety attire. When men wear it it’s “why are you wearing those work clothes” women can wear them because no one will assume they’re work clothes because women don’t (normally/traditionally) do those jobs.
In the same way that men don’t wear suits in a casual setting they don’t wear other work attire in a casual setting.
Generally if women wear something, men will avoid it to not appear affeminate. Increasingly so throughout history as fashion is incorporated into gender roles.
Depending on where you live, it’s absolutely male fashion. My dad wore overalls over a plain flannel almost exclusively.
Wore. Past tense.
I.e. “previously was in fashion”
Or they died.
Yeah well he died so I guess he doesn’t wear them any more, lol.
For a guy, it wasn’t a new fashion. The women are going through pocket overcompensation. Next, they’ll be in JNCO jeans.
Shit I need to cash in on this and make cargo skirts.
upvoted for pocket overcompensation i am seen
Are comfy versions of overalls and jumpsuits even made for men? I just assume manufacturers make men’s work wear and women’s fashion versions and skip out on their counterparts.
Yes, check out swoveralls
It’s hot when women wear clothes that are seen as “men’s clothing”
Like shoes
When we started to let them wear pants…😉😉😉
Follow up question: How are overalls/jumpsuit even remotely practical,especially for women who don’t pee standing up mostly - and especially in the US with its legendary public toilet doors?
As a man I simply don’t get it.

Women look better in them.
I’m guessing it’s because parents also dress their kids in denim overalls (because kids are messy), leading to some kids growing up to experience wearing them. Girls like the “vintage” style of kid’s clothes at least as far as high school, at which point they can become a nostalgic choice.

Not a lot of people wear their uniform as high fashion unless it’s one that carries an inherent prestige
Major title gore…
