All gentlements garments in 18th century is lined with silk, but all ladies garments lined with linnen? Is there any natural explantation of this? I don't think that is necessarily true. I'm sure there are men's coats and waistcoats lined with linen. However, my two cents' worth--a man's shirt covered him more completely than a woman's shift, I think, so he had a fuller under layer of linen next to his skin.
