Big Russian Choir of Russian TV and Radio: Age Group Uniforms


Figure 1.--This 1976 photograph is one of the uniforms of the younger group. The girls wear dresses with white bows. I'm not sure of the color. The boys wear matching short pants suits with sleeveless jackets looking rather like vests. There is alsoa smll tie in the same color as the jacket and shorts.

The uniforms for the two age groups choirs are very different. We note several styles of uniforms. The younger boys generally wear vests and matching short pants with white ankle socks. We note at one function the younger choristers wearing two styles of uniforms. Here we see the younger boys wearing their plaid vest-like jacket short pats suits while other boys wear white shirts, bowties, and black shortpanrs. The girls also vary with some wearing plaid jumpers and other white or light-colored dresse. It almost looks like they are from two different choirs (figure 1). In recent years the younger boys have begun earing long pants like the older boys. The older boys wear jackets and long pants. One of their outfits includes Nehru jackets.
