A Few Differences Between Male and Female Fashion

Style

Men’s shirts are cut and sewn straight from top to bottom without styling or shaping, whereas, female shirts are cut and sewn shapely, to give the wearer a proper fitting. This is mainly because of the body structure of both sexes.

Women are curvy and shapely so their shirts are sewn straight from the top and then it curves in from the waist. Some female shirts are also sewn with darts on them, to further shape it and give fitting to the wearer.

The men’s shirts are not sewn this way, however, some may be very tight and look fitted on the wearer who is of the same size as the shirt. This doesn’t mean that it is curvy like the women’s shirt, it is just sewn tighter, to fit just the accurate size.

The Sleeves

Sleeves show another difference between male and female shirts. The location of the arm cut on the sleeve, where you have the armpit on a female’s shirt is slightly different from that of a male. Depending on the style of the shirt, the female sleeves are mostly sewn tighter and more fitted than the male’s.

Whether a long sleeve or short sleeve, its length on a female shirt is shorter than a male shirt. Also, the female shirts have the option of a ¾ (three-quarter) length, unlike the male version, it is either nonexistent or rare.

The Hips

For pants, the sewing of the hips is different. Depending on the hip size of a woman, trouser and pants and cut, shaped and sewn to fit the size and the wearer, there is every tendency that if a lady with a different hip size, but the same waist size wears that trouser, it won’t fit. Men don’t have this issue.

The Chest

Especially in fitted T-shirts, they are sewn with additional space or allowance in the chest region for the women, considering the bust. This is done so that it will naturally give a flattering form to the woman and give the fitted T-shirt a more comfortable feel on her.

The Buttons

The button and button-hole placement on the shirts of a female is different from that of a male. The female buttons are placed on the left and the button-holes, on the right. The reverse is the case for that of male.
