walrus moustache

Bushy lip curtain

A walrus moustache is a large, bushy moustache that droops over the upper lip and hangs down at the sides of the mouth, resembling a walrus's whiskers.

The style was popular in the late nineteenth century and is associated with figures like Teddy Roosevelt and Mark Twain: He grew out a walrus moustache that completely covered his upper lip.
