French Blue Romper Suit (1950s)


Figure 1.-- We Here we have an unidentied blue romper suit. We believe it is a French outfit probanly dated to the 1950s or early-60s. All we know for sure is that is was a 45 cm suit. That would be a size for a boy about 4-5 years of age. The French would have called it a barboteuse. These outfits were very popular for pre-school boys during the 1950s-60s. They were done both as play and dress-up garments. This looks ti be a rathger dressy romper suit.
