This is my personal blog / database about Bib overalls in feature films and TV series. It's my first blog. I collect informations, trailer videos, low-res images and personal comments/ratings. This blog was created in 2011. From 2012-2020 on Wordpress.com and now I'm back. Many links are wrong but exist (blog search).

-Comment: At least David-Alexandre Parquier in light blue bibs. Bib at low position.
I haven't checked the complete movie but I assume very few scenes as most of the scenes are probably set in the jungle with other clothes.
English title: The Frenchman's Son.
Sorry, I can't say much more yet. There are definitely better movies, actors and bibs scenes.
Rating 3 for now only.
Update: Completely checked. Obviously only one longer scene at ~19 minutes. Handsome boy, bib at low positon, few good scenes, no or few rear views.
What does it mean for the bib to be at low position? Just curious
ReplyDeleteBibs I often call the complete overalls.
ReplyDeleteIf the height of the front bib piece is much lower than usual, like below the breast or nipples then I call it "bib at low position".
Often the overalls are then also too small or short (but depends) if they are baggy. Sometimes it's just a fashion (mainly girls). Otherwise the overalls size might be too small (and often tight as well).
It should be clear by watching the pics.
Maybe a list or tag would be good.
Sometimes the bib position is very high and just below the neck (short strap) which is more rare. Then they might be too large like when a kid or teen wears overalls designed for grown-ups. But they could be worn baggy and then the bib is lower. I think too large overalls are mainly shown in the 30s and 40s for farm work. And baggy ones in the 2000s.
Ok I see. Usually it looks better in the low position if the bibs still fit good.
ReplyDeleteUsually for a girl what looks best is just above the breasts, but at the bottom of the chest (a tiny bit below the nipple) is good for a boy. It just depends on how the bibs fit.
ReplyDeleteThat's the problem. Often they don't fit good and are way too small and tight. I prefer baggy bibs and a bib at upper or regular postion. But of course depends on the actor and if he or she is shirtless.
ReplyDeleteI think if a male is wearing bibs shirtless, just below the nipple is about right. But that's just as far as what looks right. But that's more a detail. I would like to find more films with bibs shirtless but there doesn't seem to be enough around. I just always liked it as a style
ReplyDeleteIf you mean entries here shirtless, you can try a blog search.
ReplyDeleteBut yes, there are rather few (good) movies.
