Give one example showing how national or regional dress developes to meet practical needs?

One example of national dress evolving to meet practical needs is the Scottish kilt. Originally designed for ease of movement and comfort in the rugged terrain of the Scottish Highlands, the kilt is made from durable wool that provides warmth and flexibility for outdoor activities. Over time, it has also become a symbol of Scottish identity and heritage while still serving its practical purpose during various outdoor events and celebrations.
