There were two basic styles of collars -- attached and detacable collars. The Eton collar was, for example, a popular detachable collar. It was worn with shirt waists that were done wuthout collars. The sailor collar in contrast was usually attached as part of the blouse. We note very few examples of detachable sailor collars. They were not unknown, but the vast majority of sailor blouses has attached collars. The detavle sailor collars we have found seem to be primarily used on blouses mother sewed at home. The great bulk of ready-made sailor blouses had attached sailor collars. We are still working on this topic, but this is our preliminary assessment.
