Perché è masculine?

Costume is masculine in French. While it does derive from Italian "costume," the gender assignment is better explained by French phonetic patterns: nouns ending in -e that are borrowed from Italian or Latin often become masculine in French when they refer to concrete objects or garments. The word entered French as a masculine noun referring to a style of dress or outfit, and this gender has been consistent in usage.
