@sim Well, there's robes that fit a male body and are dress-like. And as you said, anything can be custom made to look good. I'm prone to long coats and... whatever the spanish "faldones" is called in english, the side skirts on medieval or riding clothes? for warmth of the upper leg and protection from weeds and the like. It's mostly a matter of making the cuts and shapes fit the body they'll go on. That's why a normal dress would look stupid on a guy, as you pointed out, they're designed to accentuate female shapes. Dresses have enourmous practical value in hot areas though, like Spain. They let an air current and can be easily pulled up to cross streams or whatever, something you can't do with pants.
