Unidetified Family: Clothing


Figure 1.--Here are the children with their mother and I think an older sister. Notice how long mother's dress is.

Notice that none of the children wears hats despite the strong summer sun. The girls all wear simple summer frocks without collars. Two of the dresses have patterns. We do not know what color they were. Two have defined waistlines, theother one is a simpe A--line dress. The boy who looks to be the youngest wears a colored tunic suit. We are not sure why color the tunic was either. All three have long stockings. Two of the girls have white long stovkings. We'te unsure about the third girl. The boy has black long stoicking. One of te girls has button shoes which helps dae the portrait to the 1910s. Whie we still see high-top shoes in the 1920s, we no longer see button shoes like these.
