Although clothing has numerous variations, there are only a few basic types.

All links are from Wikipedia:

• Close-fitting upper garment: Shirt, blouse
• Close-fitting lower garment: Trousers, pants
• Close-fitting over most of the body: Jumpsuit, Boilersuit, coveralls, overalls
• Wrap-around lower garment: Skirt, kilt
• Wrap-around over much of the body: Dress, gown, Robe, Toga, sari, kimono
• Footwear: Sock, Shoe, boot, sandal
• Handwear: Glove, mitten
• Headwear: Hat, cap, Helmet

In the Western world, men have worn pants since the early Middle Ages, and women have recently caught up: Women and trousers That catching up was rather limited in the mid-1960's, when TOS was made, but it was much farther along in the 1970's, when the first ST movies were made.
