| Men's buttons are traditionallly on the right because most people are right-handed, and that is the easiest way to do the buttons up. The same argument accounts for the positioning of ladies' buttons - so long as they are being done up by a maid, which any lady of means might be expected to employ before the 20th century. Positioning the buttons on the left made things easier for a right-handed servant facing you to do the buttons up and also showed you could afford such a luxury. |
