Nov 27, 2017 · At that time, in my school and probably most others, the first and second year pupils wore gymslips (girls) and short trousers (boys). A gymslip, for those unfamiliar with the term, is not an item of gym wear but a pinafore dress, much like a skirt with a bib top.
Early school uniforms for girls were inspired by the demands of sport and physical exercise. Female pupils did not generally wear a regular school uniform in the Victorian era but functional kit was evolving for girls’ team sports such as cricket and rowing.

My parents explain that they thought I should wear shorts because I look better in them. I suppose the motives are not far removed from the reasons other parents have in the past. And of course the "aw doesn't he look cute" syndrome that only a mother could have when her son is dressed, well, cutely.
