Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | The Sailor Fuku is to the characteristic "sailor suit" schoolgirl uniforms worn in Japan. Sailor fuku uniforms are actually based on late 1800s early/1900s "rational dress" girl's fashions (themselves based on European naval uniforms), which progressed into the "middy" dress that was seen in the west till at least the 1920s with Sears offering over dozens of variants, both as one piece and separate tops, for children, teenagers, and even some for adult women and even some articles appearing in the 1941 Montgomery Ward Catalog. Despite their western history, the prevalence of sailor-suited school girls in anime, manga, and other forms of Japanese media show how iconic the sailor fuku is in Japan. This is true despite many Japanese schools having switched to more Western-patterned uniforms. However, there are some American schools that use Sailor Fuku. |
