Individual French Schools: Chronological List


Figure 1.--This is the Sixiéme A class at the Lycee St. Malo in 1920-21. The boys wear a military-styled uniform, mostly with short pants and knee socks. A few bits wear sailor suits and regular suits.  

HBC is attempting to assess French schoolwear trends. We have assembled a good deal of information on different types of garments, but an accurate assessment of trends over time and conventions remains elusive. Thus HBC is assembling images of invidual schools. One a number of schools have been assesmbled it will enable us to better understand trends over time and accepted conventions. Unfortunately often little information is available on the schools pictured in many available images. HBC will do its best to assess these images. Hopefully our French consultants will be able to add additional details. Here we list the schools chronologically.

The 19th Century

We have some limited information on French schools in the 19th century. Images from the 19th century of course are more lmited than the 20th century, especially early 19th century images before the deveklopmenbt of photography. We have, however, been able to find some information.

The 20th Century

We have archived information on quite a number of French schools during the 20th century. Some of the schools we have not yet been able to identify. The information is beginning to provide a good idea of how French children dressed for school in msny decdes.
