[edit] Usage in Europe and the US
This article says "Outside the U.S., higher-status women (judges, cabinet ministers, physicians, corporate executives et al.) generally avoid wearing trousers in public." I doubt. Please discuss at Talk:Skirt#Usage in Europe and the US --Derbeobachter (talk) 22:25, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] DRESSES: OBJECTS OF FASHION OR SKIRTS OF DEATH???
Uh, this (above) is an advertisement. The link leads to a dress shop. 63.226.248.97 (talk) 07:55, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
I've deleted the link. Centrepull (talk) 10:52, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
[edit] History
I think history needs to be fleshed out a bit--the way it reads now is that dresses were invented in the 19th century in the hoopskirt style. I think I could find other sources that contradict that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.88.170.40 (talk) 17:22, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
[edit] Definition
The definition appears to be incorrect.
Dress
–noun 1. an outer garment for women and girls, consisting of bodice and skirt in one piece.

Outfit
–noun
2. a set of usually matching or harmonious garments and accessories worn together; coordinated costume; ensemble: a new spring outfit
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/outfit
Looking up multiple definitions of dress no where does it say it can be more then a one piece clothing article. What is described in the round brackets is in fact and outfit.
