Bragou bras
Bragou bras were working trousers which were worn throughout France at one time. By the time this postcard was made, just over a hundred years ago, the custom had just about died out. Plonévez Porzay is in Brittany.
I love such pants. I love the pants the Indian women wear. They are so comfortable, wide and look good. I had one outfit I bought at a designer store made out of thick material and it was my favorite pant and jacket set.I wore it so much it wore out. lol

Perhaps they got the idea for these trousers when they went to colonialize Africa? :-)
Peter: Perhaps they did. I can't help wondering who ironed all of those pleats - no electric steam irons in those days.

A Lady's Life: I rarely wear a skirt. I'm a jeans person trying hard to wear something else...
