Good question.

In the North, there was no great shortage of materials, because the factories were running at fult tilt.

In the South, there was a big gulf between the rich wives who could afford the luxuries that the blockade-runners brought in from Europe, and the rest, who had to mend and make do. (Like Scarlett o'Hara.)

The women did not have to dress up like men to sneak into the fighting forces in World War 2 like they did it the Civil War. They joined up (300,000) to serve in the women's forces. The women who had to work in the factories wore one piece jumpsuits if needed or jeans or slacks with tops. They did not have to dress up as men. They wore what was practical for them. It was taboo for women to wear men's clothing in those days.
