EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming print captures a piece of history from the 1920s - a Gym Tunic that was popular among children during that era. The tunic, also known as a gym slip, was an essential part of school uniforms and could be purchased for ten shillings and sixpence in brown or navy colors, with other shades available upon request.
The simplicity and practicality of this garment is evident in its design, which allowed for easy movement during physical education classes. The affordability of the gym tunic made it accessible to families from all walks of life, ensuring that children could participate in sports and activities without any financial barriers.
Looking at this image evokes nostalgia for a bygone era when fashion was more about functionality than trends. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when children played outside and enjoyed the freedom of movement provided by their trusty gym tunics.
Whether worn by girls or boys, the gym tunic symbolizes innocence and youthfulness, capturing a snapshot of childhood in the 1930s. This historical artifact is not just a piece of clothing but a representation of an entire generation's experiences and memories.
