Had we ever heard of loungewear before quarantine? Is it still acceptable to sit around all day in pyjamas and when did loungewear become a fashion statement? Let's explore the history of relaxing, unwinding, and looking gorgeous all at once. In the 1930s, lounging pyjamas often referred to as beach pyjamas, were a popular look among elegant ladies who preferred to dress in exquisitely crafted, cosy, and fashionable ensembles as an alternative to the more constricting day clothing. Famous for combining comfort and elegance, French fashion designer Coco Chanel was known for dressing in baggy pyjama- style trousers and a loose-fitting blouse. The comfortable lounge appearance immediately gained popularity among wealthy women who wore variants of these beach pyjamas as at-home entertaining lounge pyjamas or exquisitely detailed versions for going out to dinner and dances. At first, it was alarming because it was not a gender-specific style
In the 1930s and beyond, adopting the pyjama look for day and evening wear was liberating for women. This look became an early feminist statement as women embraced the freedom from tightly corseted clothing and accessories, their lounging pyjamas with pearl necklaces or maybe a killer pair of heels like Coco did. With COVID-19, our world was flipped upside down in 2020, and it compelled many of us to work from home or stay in quarantine. The emphasis changed from office job attire to at-home comfort as much of our interactions took place via screens. The sophistication and understated glamour of loungewear returned because we didn't want people to think we had lowered our standards and turned into slobs.
So what distinguishes stunning loungewear from gorgeous pyjamas? Technically speaking, one is for relaxing and working from home, while the other is for sleeping at night. What makes a difference, then? Nothing at all, if you pick the ideal pyjamas. Choose pyjamas that fit perfectly on your body, are made of breathable fabric, and don't cause you to perspire or feel hot. Choose materials with vibrant colours and patterns or soft, whimsical designs that reflect your personality and feel. If you spend a lot of time working from home on screens, you might want to pick colours that go with the interior design of your house. Invest in pyjamas made of lovely breathable fabrics like cotton or bamboo that will last and wash well without fading or pilling. If you make a wise purchase of some lovely pyjamas, you will have instantly multiplied your investment because you may choose throughout the day whether you want to lay around in pyjamas or pose in them.
