A sign of status (a really fancy dress), occupation (a chef's uniform) or both (a military uniform with Rank Insignia).

Utilitarian Purposes (work clothing, stuff with pockets, gloves, safety gear and so forth).

Also they have a variant of the armor they use in their ships bonded to their bodies. The Shadows have reinforced their bodies with technology to the point where clothing is unnecessary.

Protection against the elements (a Parka, a spacesuit, etc.) What we're seeing is actually an encounter suit (Ie a suit of armor) and the Shadows, like the Vorlons are quasi-energy beings.

But this raises some comments about this sort of things relating to clothes.ДЄs I see it there are five functions of clothing.

There are a few other instances of aliens which go about in the buff and disparage humans for not doing so. Mind you Burroughs seems to have a thing for buck-naked perfect specimens of White Masculinity excelling when thrown into an exotic environment in general. This is particularly noteworthy since A: even going by the crude astronomy of the time where people could imagine Mars as a world with life, it was not in question that it would be Colder than Earth and B: Most of Barsoom is a desert for the most part desert dwelling peoples tended not to walk around in their skivvies (the Arabs for one, the Apaches for another).

I'll start with John Carter of Mars: a science fiction series in which everyone (even members of advanced civilizations) walks about naked all the time save for jewelry and some belts for holsters and scabbards and similar and consider it bizarre that people on earth 'wrap themselves in dirty cloth'. This is something I think about (and not in that sense). I'm back :DVideo 2 of this MH:World Beta Naked series Battle starts at 03:00.This was really fun I really hate Barroth since MH3Tri, to be honest, but I.
