Argentine School Smocks: Chronology--The 1970s

Argentine boys school smock guardapolvo escolar
Figure 1.--The older boy here wears a white lab-style front buttoning smock (dental). This was a popular style for boys. The girl and younger boy wear the more standard European smock stle with side or back buttons (guardapolvo). We believe this photograph was taken in the 1970s.

School smocks were commonly worn in the 1970s. They were the standard school wear in primary schools. We believe that white smocks were almost universal. The children here all wear white chool smocks. The boy on the previous page from a private school wears a white lab-style front buttoning smock. This appears to have been a common style for boys. Girls more commonly wore back buttoning styles. We believe that similar school smocks were commonly worn at state schools, but have no information yet to conform this. Most of the smocks we have noted were white, but in black and white photographs we also notice some colored smocks. We are not sxure yet just ehat the colors were.
