MODERATORS
I welcome your punishment. It is well deserved
Added another moist for emphasis.
Side note: humble brag...I speak and moderate periodically at conferences. My friends give me a list of 5 words to slide into my speech. Moist was one of them. That's the hardest word to just slip into (as it were) a presentation. I was successful.
Hows your project going these days, oh is moistly done now
Broadly, and without evidence:
Women in formal situations were decoration, another piece of fashion attached to a man.
I think this answer is on the right track but not the complete story. why don't men in the culture also use their own fashion to demonstrate their opulence? we have to look at not only why women but also why not men
where the only acceptable style is jacket with pants?
Well, there's the Scottish, who can do a gussied-up kilt.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highland_dress
Formal evening wear (white tie)
The traditional white-tie version of Highland dress consists of:
Men:
Formal kilt doublet in barathea or velvet. The regulation, Montrose, Sheriffmuir and Kenmore doublets are suitable in a variety of colours. Velvet is considered to be a more formal material. The Prince Charlie jacket (coatee) is considered to be less formal,[by whom?] although when introduced it was to be worn with a white lace jabot. Tartan jackets are also seen.
Waistcoat in white marcella, tartan (usually to match the kilt), red or the same material as the doublet. No waistcoat is worn with the Kenmore or Montrose doublets.
Kilt with formal kilt pin
White stiff-front shirt with wing collar and white, gold, or silver studs and cufflinks for the Regulation doublet, or a white formal shirt and optional lace cuffs for the Montrose, Sheriffmuir, and Kenmore doublets
White lace jabot. A black silk or a white marcella bow tie may be worn in place of the jabot with the regulation doublet (Highland wear often includes a black bow tie even at white-tie events).
Black formal shoes or black buckle brogues
Tartan or diced kilt hose
Silk garter flashes or garter ties
Silver-mounted sporran in fur, sealskin or hair with a silver chain belt
Black, silver-mounted and jeweled sgian-dubh
Highland bonnet (Balmoral or Glengarry) with crest badge (only worn outdoors)
Short belted plaid with silver plaid brooch (optional)
Scottish dirk (optional)
Beau Brummel's influence is the reason, though he would have detested the uniformity of it all.

A good Behind the Bastards on him: https://open.spotify.com/episode/00n2CANk00e5P2L0H348h1?si=1VhgCCRnQQueiPBFSfjJLg
Tap for spoiler
possibly the only non bastard to make it onto a non-Christmas episode
Did they even agree he was a bastard? I vaguely remember this episode. I recall it being pretty tame.
Kind of. A bastard in the sense that he was a major influence to modern men's fashion and fast fashion as a whole, but otherwise he was really a victim of the system that sought a way out and unwittingly contributed to the very same system, not to mention that he was kind of a jerk.

Derek Guy breaks it down some in this podcast. But it was a shift in the house of commons in England as it was working Man's clothing and was a way to signal you were with the people and not aristocracy.
