This is my 2nd blog about feature films, TV series and documentaries with boys, girls, men and women in sailor suits, Lederhosen and other historical clothing of the 19th century and beyond. I collect informations, trailer videos, low-res images and personal comments/ratings. This blog was introduced in 2011. 2012-2020 on Wordpress. Now I'm back. Update will take a while.

Story 93: Sailor collar: eye catcher and distraction
One other interstesting thought. After rewatching Le temps des secrets (pictured, rating 8, after Marcel Pagnol), I found this scene at 24 minutes and I thought again about the purpose of a sailor collar.
Richard Oiry wearing white clothes and only the blue collar is different (also funny how it is folded by the wind).
Maybe the collar should lift the eye sight and deflecting from other, lower body parts? Remember Catholic or other religions and moral thoughts in these early days.
Younger kids were mostly clothed by their parents (moms) and the main purpose for a sailor suit was maybe the pride for the Marines and to look alike. See also other story entries, especially
/2012/01/18/story-16-sailor-collars-types-2-and-purpose/
and blog search for "wind" "flying" and "blowing".
I also have updated the previous story entry and a pic about a folded collar. (Sorry no more Lederhosen yet).
