English Ladyship Lilliput : Short Pants Sun Suit (1940s)s


Figure 1.--We notice a sun suit outfit from the Ladyship Lilliput Leaflet for younger boys, sun or play drawers for children 1 1/2 - 7 year olds (No. L466). We would classify the outfut as a sun suit for summer play. Boys would have worn them for beach outings, but also for summer olay in general. Thwt werewool knitted garments done in three sizes, 1 1/2-3, 3-5, and 5-7 years of age. The model is the youngr size done with suspenders in the same knitted naterial as the short pants. We are not sure if the suspenders were just for the younger size. The price was 3d.
