Hatshepsut, the female pharaoh of Egypt, wore men's clothing as a way to assert her authority and legitimacy as a ruler in a male-dominated society. By dressing in traditional pharaonic attire, including the pharaoh's kilt and false beard, she aimed to project an image of power and authority typically associated with male rulers. This sartorial choice helped her maintain control and command respect from her subjects during her reign.
