Overalls, coveralls, dungarees! No matter what you call them, they're sure good at covering up a person. Overalls consist of pantsnote or shorts, or a skirt attached to a top front bib, and straps from the back that hook over the shoulders to the front bib. They're often made of denim, a strong fabric that can take the brunt of hard work and harsh cleaning, and cover clothing to keep what's underneath clean. ("Overalls" in British English can also refer to a boiler suit or protective overcoat, rather than the bib-style overalls American English usually refers to, but they count as well.) Jumper dresses (called pinafore dresses in the UK) are a variant where the shorts or pants are replaced with a skirt instead, and can be made either of denim or of something fancier. One-piece strapped cover-up clothing was once solely the hallmark of blue-collar workers or farm folk, especially in eras where wearing overalls in public places (such as in town) was considered lower-class, rural, and improperly dressed for society — work clothes weren't for social occasions. Overalls have worked their way over the generations into an acceptable fashion choice for many people, but they are often heavily associated in media with a certain shorthand for characterization. An older character in overalls — teens and higher — is likely being characterized as one of the following: A blue-collar worker, or other level of lower/working class. Along with farmers, this covers other manual laborers such as plumbers, carpenters, janitors, construction workers, and the like who don't work sit-down office jobs. Overalls are a fast visual shorthand for a character who's either doing some hard work where their regular clothes would be ruined, working with their hands, or of lower class than the others around them; put one person in overalls and everyone else around them in suit pants and blazers (or even just collared shirts and khakis), and you can quickly tell who's the Working-Class Hero or assumed to not make as much as the nicer-dressed people around them, including their boss. Sometimes, advertisements and propaganda will use these to evoke the idea of the common man or worker and their connection to the lower class, even if the person wearing them is not. They're also worn by characters who may just need them temporarily to stay clean during hard work such as painting, dirty jobs, or farm work. For particularly hot and/or messy jobs, one may also chose to forgo wearing a shirt underneath, as it's much easier to spend five minutes rinsing one's own skin (or fur) than spending hours on end trying to get set-in stains out of a shirt, and wearing overalls is a much more practical alternative to outright toplessness. When needed, the front bib also pulls double-duty as an apron should one not have a rag (or discarded shirt) on hand. But without explanations for why they're being worn in this latter case, that gets a little generic. A rural character, regardless of employment status. Like above, the overalls symbolize they're some degree of lower class that either doesn't have the means to dress up in nicer clothing or can't be assed to. This can easily make the Country Mouse stand out among their City Mouse peers, or confirm that a Country Cousin is exactly that. Also applies to more "bumpkin" characters, even if they aren't specifically from the country (intended to imply that they're not as sophisticated as those around them), the poor (who may not have other nicer things to wear), and adult Tomboys or The Lad-ette (such as the Wrench Wench). To appear young, childlike, carefree, innocent, and/or playful, including emotionally immature people and Adults Dressed as Children. The level of success varies on how well the character pulls it off — they may appear playful and charming, or just look like they're dressed too young for their true age. This isn't the same as Kiddy Coveralls, though it does invoke the idea of them. The difference is that Rough Overalls are on a person who's clearly older and willingly choosing to dress in a way to appear younger than they are, while there's no ambiguity the Kiddy Coveralls are on a kid (and someone who probably doesn't have a lot of clothing choices, unlike adults). These are the three main uses, with two others that have gone in and out of prominence: An urban youth from the "inner city"; this was prevalent in the late '80s and '90s, but is falling out of fashion. The urban/inner city variant often has the wearer going either with one strap unhooked and hanging free to show the shirt underneath partially or the overalls oversized and sagging low enough to show underwear, showing the wearer's too cool to wear the set properly or to need the protective traits of the clothing. Some media might play overalls up for Fanservice by putting an adult in overalls without a shirt underneath and showing off the chest area, back, sides of the torso (or entire torso if the bib is down), and/or bare shoulders. Since everything sensitive is technically covered but it's the only garment present, this implies that the overalls are all the person is wearing. This is a gender-neutral look — anyone can look sexy in overalls and with men, it's evoking Hot Men at Work. It's also one of the few ways for females to pull off a Shirtless Scene without raising the rating too high, as the front bib will keep their nipples covered, though more "endowed" ladies will have to contend with Sideboob. Note that the overalls need to be part of the characterization or visualization when on the character, not just mentioning or showing a character who wears them once in a while without a purpose. Just wearing clothes isn't a trope. A Sub-Trope of Clothing Reflects Personality and Meaningful Appearance, and the Super-Trope/"overalls" half of Overalls and Gingham. The Working-Class Hero might be wearing these, depending on profession, including the Almighty Janitor and the Wrench Wench. Often seen Down on the Farm or in Arcadia, especially for a Farmer's Daughter or Country Cousin. If the character is a Funny Animal and has only the overalls on, this is also a version of a Half-Dressed Cartoon Animal. This trope is about teens and adults (at least around 13); for kids, see the Sub-Trope Kiddy Coveralls (even if they're evoking the rural, urban, or working aspects of the trope). |

The Three Little Pigs: The Big Bad Wolf — a rough country bumpkin — wears only red suspender pants, which pop and fall down after way too much huffing and puffing at the brick house. In two of the sequels, the Three Little Wolves are shown to take after their old man. Practical Pig, the one who builds his house out of bricks, wears blue overalls and a bricklayer's cap. This identifies him as a hard worker, in contrast to his two carefree brothers, who wear sailor suits. |

Crash Bandicoot: Crash's younger sister was introduced wearing overalls, with one strap off as per 90s tradition. While partially appealing to her Kid Hero status, it also overlaps with her Teen Genius character as she works with making gadgets and machines. She traded out the overalls in the post-Naughty Dog days, going through several redesigns until Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time rebooted back to her original outfit. | |

Fix-It Felix also wears overalls — a pair of blue overalls along with his tool belt and hammer — but being the Working-Class Hero handyman these present him in a more professional light than Ralph. |

The Hallmark Hall of Fame film adaptation of the children's book, Sarah Plain And Tall has farmer Jacob Witting — Sarah's husband — alternate between a couple of pairs of denim overalls while he's working his land. To hint at his lower class status, the left-side strap on one pair has been replaced with a strip of lighter-colored cloth. His young son Caleb wears them as well, and at one point his Mail-Order Bride Sarah "borrows" a pair of Jacob's to wear while she's helping fix a hole in the farmhouse roof. | |

The Party from Nineteen Eighty-Four has overalls as its primary uniform, since they are ostensibly meant to represent the working class that they profess to champion — blue for outer party members, black for inner party members. This is a reference to how the totalitarian regimes (both fascist and communist) that arose during the leadup to World War II did the same to align with the idea they were connected to the common man. The movie used the British-style boiler suits for the general uniform. | |

Naturally, Sadie: Prior to the Retool of the second season, Sadie often wore overalls to show her Tomboy nature and interest in studying nature, mostly wearing a pair when she volunteers at a zoo or collect samples in a swamp. This became a plot point in "Best of Breed", when an Alpha Bitch volunteers to mentor her on a speech contest but critique Sadie's overalls. Sadie in turn, learn some manipulative tactics and has the popular girl trade away her trendy clothes for her own overalls. | |

LEGO City Undercover: Farm Worker Bill, one of the unlockable Farmer characters, wears only a baseball cap and pair of overalls. He can usually be seen as a background character at Jethro Hayes' farm in Bluebell National Park, suggesting that he's (as his name implies) one of the farmhands. | |

Pokémon: The first few versions of Bird Keeper trainers — young men who specialized in working with Bird Pokémon — are in overalls, likely because birds can be messy to handle. Both Ranchers and Cowgirls in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl and their remakes wear overalls, fitting their occupations as farm workers. Pokémon Breeders in Pokémon X and Ynote Starting with the male trainers in Pokémon Black and White are dressed in overalls, keeping them clean while working at a breeding center. Later versions leaned more into the farmer's Overalls and Gingham look to evoke farming aspects of Pokémon breeding. The only versions that revert back to an apron over clothes instead are the remake games,note Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire and Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl where they originally had the look. |

Square Pegs: A young Sarah Jessica Parker and Amy Linker play a pair of unpopular kids seeking to be accepted by the popular group. As it was felt the two weren't 'ugly' enough, the show's staff made sure to really nerd up their costumes, both often wearing overalls (for Parker's character, in pinafore and jumper styles, for the Girly-Girl style compared to Linker's pant-style overalls, used to cover the fat suit she wears.) | |

Marmalade Boy: A notable early outfit of Miki Koishikawa is a pair of blue overalls with a heart on the bib over a pink shirt. This goes with her cheerful and cute personality, namely her Tomboy with a Girly Streak personality. This was lampshaded in an early episode when she felt compared against a Girly Girl, calling herself looking like a 'Big Clunky Kid' in her overalls. | |

Transformers: Animated: Mixmaster's robot-mode deco has a dirty-brown shade on the front of his chest and belly, down to a 'belt' line along with upper legs and waist of the same color. Two small patches near his shoulders loop over his back in the same color. This gives him the look of a dirt-encrusted construction worker in overalls, fitting considering he's one of the setting's Constructicons. Huffer and Pipes, a pair of working-joe Autobots, are drawn with much more overt overall designs (including strap buttons!) and big front pocket patterns on their bellies. No surprise there, as they're supposed to be industrial plumbers, and Shout Outs to Mario and Luigi specifically. |

She-Ra and the Princesses of Power: Entrapta wears overalls over the entire series, even during the Princess Prom. In the first half of the series, she wears them like pants with the upper parts hanging loosely, matching her carefree attitude. At the end of Season 4, she appears in Beast Island wearing them correctly with the suspenders on her shoulders, as a hint that she has become aware of the consequences of her actions. | |

The Punks, one of New York's street gangs in The Warriors, wear overalls over T-shirts for a tough lower-class aesthetic, which contrasts sharply with most of the other gangs who go in for more flamboyant uniforms. The Punks are also one of the genuinely tougher sets the Warriors have to fight. | |

Sailor Moon: Rei Hino, a hot-tempered shrine maiden who pictures herself as the epitome of elegance, is occasionally seen wearing a pair of pink overalls. The outfit demonstrates Rei's dual traits as both girly but also ready to jump into "less refined" activities. Their premiere episode shows this as Rei is first seen in the overalls while pretending to not at all be interested in visiting the studio for the Show Within a Show, the Sailor V anime. | |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: In the first few seasons, shy, naive, geeky teen Willow Rosenberg wears overalls multiple times and has them in multiple colors. This starts to change when she goes to college and gets more into magic, changing her look. It also helps that it was The '90s, but it's significant that she's the only girl in the cast to wear them in a colorful fashion. Buffy on occasion wore overalls, but it was nicknamed by the fanbase as her "Dungarees of Depression" due to how she wore them when feeling sad — such as when she had no powers but had to save her mother from a vampire in "Helpless" or when she believed she killed mother's boyfriend when he was really an android in "Ted". The exception to this was during a dream sequence in the Season 4 finale, where Giles dreamt Buffy as a Womanchild wearing overalls with her hair in Girlish Pigtails. |
