About this product
By
the 1880s, drawers were worn by most women, although "combinations” –
chemise and drawers in one garment – might be worn under or instead of
the drawers. They were usually white, until the end of the decade when
coloured underclothing became popular among the fashionable set.
Drawers
were open at the crotch and back seam. They had to be, since they were
worn under the corset, and there was no way to get them off – much less
back on – without totally undressing.
This
pattern includes 4 pages of instructions with historical tips, and 2
pattern sheets.
It is printed on bond paper, and enclosed in a white
paper envelope.
All sizes Petite – X-large are included.
