Haute Couture was more about the Haute, and gender designation was a secondary concern at least until the 19th and 20th centuries in which boys and girls got color-coded and men and women weren't allowed to look like each other.
New, modern fashion blends right in with the rise of preppy style and existing in sportswear rather than business attire, especially since New York didn't have aristocrats...allegedly.
Before then, what was more important to an elite was they looked elite. Aristocracy is, after all government by the best where the best means having the most money.
