Leaving out of consideration the Adanlic fig-leaf, it is probable that mankind's first concession to modesty of animals, and these were the pro- genitors of modern trousers. At the dawn of civilization knee-length skirts and tunics and flowing robes hid masculine limbs from the public View. Brooches originated among the ancient Greeks, but this garment long indicated slavery. Brooches were also worn by the Parthians. DaL- clans, and other northern peoples. In Italy brooches were introduced at the time of Augustus Caesar. Brooches had a. long and hard fight for supremacy, however, and many centuries passed before the odiuIn of slavery that attached to brooches was forgotten. In the reign of Honor iOus, in the fourth century, the brac- carii, or breeches-nakers, were ex- pel1ed from Rome as enemies of public morals. Eventually breech- es of knee elength were adopted by the men of all civilized nations, and they retained their hold-w1thout however, the aid of suspenders, which were a mid -nfneteeenth century if1- vention-until supplanted by trous- CTS in 1874 and succeeding years
