#now including a random fashion history class that nobody asked for

ohh the housewife idea is good.. or like victorian clothing maybe, notorious for being v difficult to move around in (and even dangerous with like corsets and stuff, tho a lot of that is misconception it's still something you could definetly use !)

OHHHH ANONNIE

there are particular eras of victorian fashion that I absolutely Adore, so this is an idea that scratches my brain in soooo many ways, but this reminded me of something that I'll put under read more cause I don't wanna spam the dash

so, during covid I did a lot of research into late victorian/edwardian underwear, corsetry but also what goes Underneath, and I have a pretty solid collection of images on pinerest. (and while I do have a thing or two to say about corsets, I'm p sure Bernadette banner would be a lot more eloquent in addressing the misconceptions there)

but! an item of clothing thta rose in popularity were drawers, aka "frilly shorts to wear under your clothes" which could also be combined with the chemise on top as "a pair of combinations"

they look like whipped cream to wear right on top of your body, and while most likely not a Permanent outfit for dream, especially not when he's "playing outside", would most likely be something he wears

here's a few examples!

(Drawers, american, 1899-1905, MET)

(early 20th century combinations, America/Europe)

(combinations, early 1900s)

(combinations, 1903, part of a wedding ensamble)

(combinations, ca. 1905, v&a museum)

I know I went a little crazy about these but fashion history is something that I am very passionate about and this is a time period that definitely scratches my brain in the best ways possible
