A few men in our 17th century society like to wear black shirts and claim historical justification, but the practice is generally frowned on.
As for when shirts ceased to be considered as underwear (i.e. it became acceptable to be seen in public with a large part of the shirt showing), I agree with Ron that it wasn't until the 20th century.
