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.
Oh, also, some women would have had access to overalls as part of fulfilling factory work roles during WW2 when male labour was absent.
Due to having to mostly return to their “normal” lives afterwards, this may have given the social period when less men were around to be wary of or tell them what to do, a magical quality of independence.
Some of that magic of female independence may have washed off onto the factory workers uniform: The Overalls.
