We note boys wearing both white and colored dresses. White seems to have been a particuolsrly popular color, especilly for younger boys. Unfortunately because of the black and white photography, we have no idea about the actual colors. I don't think, however, bright colors wee very common boys, we suspected they mostly wore muted colors.
