Why are glycosidic ester and peptide bonds called dehydration linkages?

They shouldn't be called that. The condensation reactions that form those linkages form the linkage + H2O. When the link is broken it causes the lost of a water.

Does a shirt contain ester linkage?

Ester linkages are formed between organic molecules (such as alkanes) and the carboxyl group of a carboxylic acid or other organic compound containing a carboxyl group. If you mean, does a polyester shirt have ester linkages, then yes. Polyester is a polymer created by many ester linkages.
