As a female that portrays both a solder and a women in the field, let me vent on each.
lets start with the historic ways a women would dress. As most know a typical under dress for a women is chemise, pantaloons, corset/ stays, hoops, petticoats, and dress.
now the average a tent that we sleep in is a 8/7.
my point being here is realistically women couldn't of worn hoops all the time less they were high class and had maids / servants. there a huge fire hazerd and watch everywhere you move.
any women that has cooked over a fire knows the practicality of a field dress. ( bear with me as im not sure if they go by another name)
ok part b of my rant.
most of you know i put on wool and serve with Corp. on cannons. one thing that angers me is people saying its not historically correct. there were meny women due to the bad medical exams that took on the look of men and males names to serve. some even wern't found out till death.
my point being if a women wants to put on wool and play let her.
