Albert look run-down

Boy 1874
This young boy wears a suit with a Zouave-style jacket (fastened only at the top and with a curved front exposing the waistcoat below, similar to the suit shown in the 1860s-page). He has a small turn-over collar (fashionable at the time) and a narrow, small bow tie. He has 3/4 lenght trousers and stockings in a light colour. He wears leather lace-up high-top shoes.

This young boy holds a boater hat on the table, a style which originated in England and was commonly worn at many private schools. He wears a three-piece suit with a Zouave-style jacket (fastened only at the top and with a curved front exposing the waistcoat underneath. These suits first became popular in the 1860s). At the time collars were still relatively small. The boy has a small turn-over collar and a narrow, small bow tie. He has 3/4 lenght trousers. These shortened-length trousers would evolve into the knee pants common in the 1880s and 90s. He has light-colored stockings and he wears leather lace-up high-top shoes.
