Its also nice that every culture had their own style. Now everyone wearing jeans and a t shirt is bad, but the awful american dad sneakers and white socks with baseball cap does it.
We need to go back. At least on special occasions or something. Don’t think going the UK and everyone wearing a suit or going to Japan and everyone wearing a Kimono is better?
I mean, by people I think you mean people with money. People dress appropriate to their station. People then doing manual labor couldn’t afford clothes like the dude in the post and wouldn’t have wasted money on clothes that weren’t durable and easily cleaned.
T-shirt and jeans became the standard due to their cheap cost to manufacture, durability, and standardized sizes and popularity in the mining, farming, and railroad industry, and again with WWII.
Not a lot of jobs these days that allow for fancy dress and not many people can afford their own tailor. Not to mention temperatures were much cooler back then allowing all those extra layers, where as now you’d melt in some parts.
People did used to look batter back in the day.

Of course I don’t mean the lower classes would wear a suit like that.
They would wear different clothes. But trousers, waistcoat, shirt are standard British clothing for all classes.
Here’s some miners
The only people that actual seem to dress British are people that work in finance and schoolchildren. Thank God for uniforms.
Fair enough
