London, July 28 (ANI): A 200-year-old bizarre ban that did not allow women in Paris to wear trousers might soon be lifted.
The ban, which was first introduced in late 1799 by Paris' police chief, stipulated that any woman wishing to "dress like a man" must seek special permission from police and provide medical justification for showing their legs.
But now a female French senator has filed a bill in the Senate last month calling for the ban to be finally repealed. She hopes it will be approved soon.
"I discovered this order this year, I was amazed," the Telegraph quoted Maryvonne Blondin, as saying. (ANI)
