I'm considering making one as a summer outfit.

They do look comfy, would probably be great in linen!

With the rope slightly lower (than my not-so-big-but-still-big belly): yes I could consider it (if stride is big enough)

No problem at all.

I'd wear one. I have already worn something similar.

YES

They look good, I'd wear one

Yes, have something similar in linen.

Already do in similar style when the weather is right.

Yes. Interesting the difference in position of the waist ties on the males and females. Anatomically based or not?

theoretically the male waist is a bit lower than a womans, learned that from corsetry.

I see nothing sci-fi about these dresses. They seem perfectly ordinary summer dresses that look very comfortable in warm weather. I already have several like this including a coupe in linen.

Yes I would wear one!!!
Please make mine in soft cotton and just below the knees.
Thank You!!!

I would wear one, but I would like one in a brighter colour. May be a deep purple?

Pretty sure that you already know this Rivegauche, but the clip comes from the 1960 film, The Time Machine, based on the novel of the same name by H G Wells, written in 1895.
Early science fiction one might say, and given the date of the movie, very early for agender clothing.
I'm not sure how old I was when I saw it for the first time, but they always struck me as "Roman" or neo-classical, I would call it now.
Could have been the mid sixties because we did a Roman occupation project around P5/6.
Historic rather than futuristic is my take anyway.
I cannot remember coveting one back then either, light cotton dresses in pastel shades or a tee-shirt with skirt or shorts were the girls' summer staples.
Boys had jeans or khaki shorts with a tee or actual short sleeve shirt, white or blue and all very boring too.
