In 1799 a law was passed in Paris to stop ladies wearing trousers, a symbol of the French working class and associated with the revolution, the more aristocratic amongst them wearing knee high culottes. That is where the expression which is still used by the French for the more socialist women characters " sans culottes" Anyway the law has just been revoked and we ladies can wear what ever we jolly well like.
