Pantdress? Jump Suit? What IS She Wearing: Simplicity 8062

The word jump suit dates to 1948 according to the Oxford English Dictionary which aims to identify the first use and then the evolving use of every word used in English. When first used it mean a “uniform worn when jumping from airplane” which obviously none of these young women intended to do in 1968 when this pattern came out. Although the garment functioned the same way--as a top and a bottom in one--they named it a “pantdress.” That word was first used in 1964 and does not seem to have caught on at all. 1964 was a banner year for fashion noun combinations as “pantskirt” and “pantsuit” also surfaced. Clearly, the idea of women in pants excited people enough to think up new garments and new words. And by 1968, women were buying and making pants of all kinds. 

This one is traditional in one way: as a sailor suit. First, worn by sailors and then by children in the late-19th Century and as a blouse for girls in the early 20th Century, this may be why this pattern looks a bit childish to me. It came in Juniors sizes which meanr it was for girls, but my copy was sold in a Misses size which meant the body of a grown woman. Of course, in the late 1960s, grown women’s fashion often aimed at making them look like children. Not the best look. 

They included a special guide on fitting because connecting a bottom with a crotch to a top creates all kinds of problems for the short-waisted or the long-waisted figure. You want the garment to fall smoothly from the shoulder without pulling at the crotch or falling weirdly low. I am not keen on jumpsuits for women as they make it so hard to use the bathroom. This pattern puts a zipper in the front which could makes it easy to get on and off, but if opt for the collar and tie you need to remember to untie it or pull it off first.  In short, one of those innovations which don’t catch on much because women soon learn they are annoying to wear.

Boy’s Suit | c. 1915 • • • Although the sailor suit craze had its roots in the 1840s it wasn’t until the 1870s that it really took off when Prince Edward dressed his own two sons in sailor suits. Advertisers were quick to capitalise on the Royal tastes by advertising sailor suits ‘as worn by the Royal princes’. By the 1880s it was widely worn by both boys and girls. The sailor suit was initially worn as casual wear for holidays at the seaside in white drill with a straw hat. For a prolonged seaside visit it was important to have clothes which would stand up to sunshine and salt water and the sailor suit was ideal. A seaside holiday was increasingly enjoyed by the growing middle classes who were encouraged to visit due to the construction of an efficient railway network. It was easy to make and was quickly drawn into the ready-to wear market which grew after the sewing machine became a practical proposition. The sailor suit was comfortable and practical for children to wear in both summer and winter, for both formal and informal occasions, and became adopted by both the upper and middle classes. It was so enthusiastically adopted that some Victorian boys wore nothing else. The sailor suit was the first garment to strip away class distinction and heralded the classless fashions of the future. It stayed in fashion in Britain until after the First World War and well into the twentieth century. • • • #whattheywore #historicalfashion #fashion #fashiondesign #fashionhistory #historyoffashion #vintagefashion #art #vintage #historicfashion #defunctfashion #historicalfashion #costume #costumedesign #couture #costumehistory #sailorsuit #childrensfashion #edwardianfashion #museumofappliedartsandsciences
