So let me get this straight. The precursors of the IRA got their dress sense from the British Army?

I'd not thought of it that way, but apparently so.

Regarding the skirts from season 1 - reminds me of a description I read or heard somewhere about Deanna's look for the first few seasons - intergalactic cheerleader. Granted, at least she would have looked good in the skirt...Glad she got away from having her hair in that bun all the time after season 1.
