Thread Name: BS: British National Dress?
Subject: RE: BS: British National Dress?
The thing about a country's national dress is that it's only a snapshot of the sort of clothes people in that country were wearing during a fairly specific period of time. So the question would really be, what was the national dress in Britain during the 19th century, or the 16th century, or whatever. And the answer to the question of what is the British national dress would be dependent on the time period being discussed.
