We contnue to see children wearing plaid dresses in the 1890s, both boys and girls. They continued to done in many styles, but with increasingly boy oriented styles, including plaid patterns. Mst were aher plain, but there wee some with ellaboate embelishments. While we continue to see boys wearng plaid dresses, we do not see as many as in the 1880s. This was probably not because the laid material for boys was becoming less popuar. Rather the comvention of youngr boys wearing dresses was in decline, especially after 1895. We still see younger boys commonly wearing kilt suits, but fewer and younger boys wearing dresses.
