After Pierrot's death, Pepe is getting progressively drunker, and his suit coat opens to reveal more of his shirt. His shirt has a monogram of "JG" on the pocket, which is the monogram of the actor (Jean Gabin) and not the character because Gabin often wore his own clothes and at that point in the film he coquettishly calls attention to the fact that he is wearing clothes from his personal wardrobe in a sort of sartorial wink at the audience."
