词条 | Buster Brown suit |
释义 |
A Buster Brown suit was a very popular style of clothing for young boys in the United States during the early 20th century. It was named after the comic strip character Buster Brown, created in 1902 by Richard Felton Outcault.[1] It typically consisted of a belted, double-breasted tunic or jacket worn with a large round collar, floppy bow, and shorts or knickerbockers. It was often worn with a round straw hat and a haircut with bangs.[1][2] Along with the sailor suit, the Eton suit, the Norfolk suit and the Fauntleroy suit, the Buster Brown suit is cited as one of the key looks in boys' clothing of the period.[3][4] The suit was typically chosen by mothers for their sons against their children's wishes.[5] It was perceived by mothers as a symbol of neatness and gentility but could lead to its wearer being mocked by other children and called a "sissy".[6][7] Mark Rothko, who arrived in the United States as a child immigrant with his family in 1913, was deliberately dressed in a Buster Brown suit made in Daugavpils in order to camouflage both the family's poverty and their Russian-Jewish origins.[8] The Buster Brown suit was also occasionally worn by older boys and men, such as the teenaged Eugene Bullard, a fan of the comic strip, who in the late 1900s purchased a Buster Brown suit with knickerbockers for Sunday best.[5]References1. ^1 {{cite book|editor1-last=Olian|editor1-first=JoAnne|title=Children's fashions, 1900-1950, as pictured in Sears catalogs|year=2003|publisher=Dover Publications|location=Mineola, N.Y.|isbn=9780486423258|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=fyhz9yZIL2YC&pg=PR7#v=onepage&q&f=false}} {{fashion-stub}}2. ^{{cite book|last=O'Donnol|first=Shirley Miles|title=American Costume 1915-1970: A Source Book for the Stage Costumer|year=1989|publisher=Indiana University Press|isbn=9780253113733|pages=15}} 3. ^{{cite book|last=Griffin|first=Irene Frances|title=Children's Costume: Its Development and Stage Reproduction|year=1955|publisher=Department of Speech and Drama, Stanford University.|pages=183|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=JagUAAAAIAAJ&q=Buster|quote=The three most important innovations in the last part of the century were: the sailor suit, the "Little Lord Fauntleroy" suit, and the "Buster Brown" suit.}} 4. ^{{cite book|last=Stamper|first=Anita|title=Clothing through American History the Civil War through the Gilded Age, 1861-1899.|year=2010|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=XmbhEx69ziwC&pg=PA351#v=onepage&q&f=false|page=351|publisher=ABC-CLIO|location=Santa Barbara|isbn=9780313084584|author2=Condra, Jill}} 5. ^1 {{cite book|last=Lloyd|first=Craig|title=Eugene Bullard, black expatriate in jazz-age Paris|year=2000|publisher=University of Georgia Press|location=Athens|isbn=9780820321929|pages=21–24|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=XCb5kGoEy9QC&pg=PA21#v=onepage&q=Buster_Brown&f=false}} 6. ^{{cite book|last=Hirschhorn|first=Clive|title=Gene Kelly : a biography|year=1975|publisher=Regnery|location=Chicago|isbn=9780809282609|pages=27|quote=From the age of seven Gene remembers being dressed in his neat Buster Brown suit and being taken to a dance school in downtown Pittsburgh by his determined mother.
