Figure 1.-- Here we see two of the Stern Brothers kilt suits for younger boys. These are two the suits that look to be made without vests. Notice the different headwear. |
The kiltsuit here is unlike any I have seen in the photographic record. The boy looks to wearing a tam with a pom. The jacket looks to be a Fauntleroy velvet jacket, but it looks to have lapels. Most Fautleroy jackets were lapelless. The jacket is worn open, but notice the tie so the sides do not flap. I have not noticed this before. Also unusuall is the plain collarless blouse. The kilt is the skirted grment that looks most like an actual kilt with a tartan plaid. Notice that there is no front pannel and there are no buttons.
