Greek School Smocks: Gender


Figure 1.--The photo was taken at the primary school of Avlonari, a village in the eastern part of the island of Euboea during 1951. Only the girls wear uniform smocks. Several boys wear singlet undershirts. One boy is barefoot.

We do not yet have much information or many images on school smocks in Greece. Thus as ith other topic, we do not yet have a good understanding of school smocks in Greece. The few images avaialble at this time suggests that the boys and girls wore smocks of similar style and color. A Greek reader reports, "Yes, I believe that they were the same. I am almost sure." We are not yet sure just how common smocks were in Greek schools. Apparently at some schools only the girls wore the smocks. We also do not know how common this was as our Greek archive is limited. We doubt if the reverse was also the case. We have never seen a school where only the boys wore smocks, unless of course it was a single gender school. We also do not have any information bout the color of Greek school smocks and if they varied by gender.
