Deuteronomy 22:5
The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God.
No specifics are given in the text. No specific prohibitions on bifurcated attire are given anywhere else. All that we're told is that men aren't to wear things made for a woman, nor a woman things made for a man.
All cultural examples are not edicts, and if fact, they are only implications we as individuals draw from Israelite and surrounding culture. And if we can draw from any cultural example biblical or classical, we can draw from our own.
Just an observation...
I'm sitting here in an ice-cream shop as I people-watch. I see women wearing both pants and dresses. Most dresses and pants and shirts are being worn immodestly in my opinion. A couple guys are in immodest muscle shirts, one is in jeans that are too tight.
As I observe the jeans women are wearing, I see that they are cut differently, designed to pertain to a woman. I wouldn't wear them, nor would any other male I know. They pertain to women.
