Coats

There was also a cloak style which was more popular in France. I can not read the text so can not provide much specific information about the specific styles. Many of these styles look to be for older boys.

Caps

The illustrations of the models all show the children wearing caps and hats. Headwear was very common in the 1900s and considered an important part of proper dressing. The boys are pictured in various cap styles including sailor and golf caps. One boys wears a Glengary and the older boys Fedora style hats. Girls wear broad brimmed sailor styles.
