Jumper - Jumper (English spelling)

(1) A jacket or shirt with a top length that is easy to work in, worn mainly by drivers and sailors. Made of materials such as gabardine, canvas, or serge, and easy to wear, similar styles are popular among a wide range of people. The cuffs and hems are tight, and the front is open or it is a pull-over style, and active, light styles made of materials such as cotton or synthetic fibers are widespread. (2) A fur jacket with a hood similar to the above (1) and worn by Eskimos in the cold zone. (3) A sleeveless garment with a continuous body and skirt, a jumper skirt worn over a sweater. (4) A pullover-type sweater, as it is called in England. Around the 17th century, a garment called a kirtle was divided into a jacket and a bodice or tunic, and the jacket, which was called a jupe, became a jump and then a jumper. In the 1920s, a type of over-blouse for women's clothing called a jumper became popular. (1) The type with loose and tapered hems is also called a blouson style, and is currently in fashion, being used for a variety of purposes and in a variety of materials for jackets and suits.
