The methods of research include a discourse analysis of Soviet advice books, brochures, and thematic articles in fashion magazines of the second half of the twentieth century, as well as a content analysis of a collection of Soviet postcards depicting children provided by the Russian National Library in St Petersburg.

Official recommendations to dress children in light and bright colours are regarded in the paper as utterances on childhood containing ‘programmatic epithets’ which constructed the conceptual field of a Soviet childhood. The paper raises the discussion about Soviet concepts of childhood and defines the place of Soviet children’s fashion in relation to world fashion trends.
