So in English, I suppose. Sorry, it does not seem very clear.
Eileen Cartoon (asker) Mar 14, 2009:
BLOUSON Yes, the question was whether the translation (i.e. same term) can also be used in men's fashion. I have always seen it for women.
Emanuela Galdelli Mar 14, 2009:
Is your question about the translation into English or about the use of the term in Italian?

blouson

Yes, it can also be used for men's fashion. As you may know, it's a jumper or a jacket. It's unisex, and even children wear them.
