From Zulu warriors and Roman gladiators, to Buddhist monks and medieval nuns; it takes a look at the outfits worn throughout history to show the rest of the world the job we do, or the group we belong to. How did different styles of uniform develop? What are the traditions behind different uniforms and symbolic clothes?
