The History of Men's Pajamas ()

(clothes to wear when sleeping)

edit

Pajamas have always been a symbol of western lifestyle. Speaking of the origin of this word, you may feel strange, because such a "foreign flavor" thing is actually an authentic foreign word. The word paejama originally comes from Hindi and is a combination of pai and jamah in Persian. Pai means "leg" and jamah means "clothes" in Persian. Pajamas, as the name implies, are leg clothes-pants. This is a kind of loose trousers worn by Middle Easterners and Indians when they go out. However, the ingenuity of European colonists gave it a new function-pajamas. At first, there were no pajamas. Later, after pajamas spread to cold Europe, people invented pajamas.

Pajamas have always been used as household clothes to relax people. But if someone walks in the street in pajamas, they will think that this person doesn't understand dress etiquette. However, I saw several news articles these days, which made me realize the function of pajamas again.

An underwear company in South Korea also has a "Pajama Day" once a month. All employees should put on their pajamas and start work when they arrive at the company. It is said that this can stimulate everyone's creative inspiration.

Many freelancers work from home, so there is also a pajamas culture.

Although wearing pajamas is comfortable, it will not appear solemn and impolite in the workplace. If you can have a business casual dress. Business pajamas may be better distinguished from pajamas at home. I always feel that pajamas are like my privacy. People should have their own space. If everyone wears pajamas to work, does that person still have his own private space? In the future, once people put on pajamas at home, they won't feel far away from the workplace and relax. On this basis, the designer later improved different styles, such as fashionable pajamas that can be worn outside, not only at home.

Development history

edit

At the beginning of the 20th century, pajamas, like other kinds of clothes, were influenced by affectation. Whether it's women's pajamas, lovers' pajamas, boudoir nightgowns, tea gowns, etc. There are exquisite and complicated ornaments and layered ways of wearing, but the practicality is ignored. Pajamas in this period were luxurious silk velvet custom-made clothes, belonging to the upper class.

With the arrival of World War I, robes became less loose, bringing a more masculine and simple style. With the development of post-war economy, the tourism industry in Europe and America flourished, so that clothing stores began to make sleeping bags, bedspreads, pillows and sheets, and matched them with women's pajamas, which led to the fashion of bedroom series. At the same time, because of the needs of travel life, the style of pajamas is becoming more and more light.

With the beginning of World War II in the late 1930s, nightlife gradually disappeared, so there was almost no demand for high-end women's pajamas. What is needed at this time is ready-made clothes that are easy to wear, such as a wool flannel nightgown, which can be worn all day or used as an evening dress; Small and lightweight chiffon silk pajamas that are easy to wash, iron and carry; Light pajamas with adjustable waist made of dyed cotton cloth.

1945 After the end of World War II, the economic recovery, singing and dancing, and feminine pajamas flying high have once again become fashionable.

In 1950s, pajamas, like other underwear, became the mainstream. With the innovation of industrial technology and the wide use of nylon fabrics, the clothing industry has been innovated, and a variety of underwear, pajamas, styles and styles from dignified and noble to short and sexy have emerged, as well as an unprecedented number of emerging underwear brands.

In the 1960s, with the rapid development of commodity economy, women's underwear and nightgowns with reasonable prices and good fashion quality were widely sold in stores as ready-made clothes, and pajamas and underwear entered every woman's wardrobe. At the same time, it is often worn out. Ladies wear dazzling robes and make evening dresses to go to the theater to see plays and have dinner. Pajama products appear on beaches, tennis courts or markets.

After 1970s, cotton and nylon blended products such as polyester became more and more popular, and pure nylon pajamas were eliminated. High-grade pajamas mainly appear in the form of silk, cotton, wool and blended fabrics, and the color form has also changed from the peaceful color in the past to the strong color in the late 1980 s. Luxury taste has also led to high consumption.

The 1990s is a stage of more modern values and functions, and this new passion is a supplement to the increasingly popular family life in the world. With the advancement of science and technology and the streamlining of enterprise personnel, women have their own careers, not only taking care of their children at home, but also working at home. The market for pajamas has expanded to include clothes that people wear when they go home, not necessarily when they sleep. In this situation, in addition to the pajamas series, the concept of household clothes has also been added. In addition to fashion, people are also very concerned about what to wear at home, and home clothes have already surpassed the basic needs just for wearing. Women may sleep in the closet, but they also want to have the latest fashion styles and colors. They not only need comfort, but also want to look sexier and more beautiful.

3. Cotton fiber and polyester are extremely weak in sweetness when burning, so they don't continue to burn directly or slowly, and the ash is hard, round and beaded.

Cotton and linen have the smell of burning paper, and the ashes are soft and dark gray.

Wool resembles silk when burned. You can see the difference between them visually.

The wrinkle resistance of silk pajamas is slightly worse than that of chemical fiber, so there is a saying that "wrinkle-free is not silk". If clothes wrinkle after washing, they need ironing to be crisp, elegant and beautiful. When ironing, air dry the clothes to 70% dry, then spray water evenly, wait for 3-5 minutes before ironing, the ironing temperature should be controlled below 150℃, and the iron should not be pressed directly on the silk surface to avoid aurora.

In order to preserve silk clothes, you should wash them first and then iron them dry. Clothes, coats and cheongsam that are inconvenient to disassemble and wash in autumn and winter should be dry-cleaned and ironed to prevent mildew and moth-eaten.

It can prevent many diseases. When people sleep, their pores are open and they are easy to catch cold. For example, a cold is related to catching cold after sleeping. Periarthritis of shoulder, more common in middle-aged and elderly people, is also related to periarthritis of shoulder during sleep. Patients with coronary heart disease are prone to angina pectoris and other symptoms after cold stimulation. Wearing pajamas after sleeping can effectively resist the cold.

Pay attention to hygiene. People will inevitably carry germs in their work, life and study. And sleeping in pajamas can solve the problem of cross infection. Sick old people who stay in bed for a long time will inevitably have mattress rash, which will further develop into bedsore if they don't pay close attention to treatment. Bedsore itching is unbearable, and it is not easy to heal after scratching, which will cause skin and soft tissue ulceration and necrosis, which makes many elderly people miserable.

Generally speaking, bedsores are all pressed out. With the help of family members, the elderly can often take measures such as turning over, massaging, scrubbing, sorting and replacing to avoid long-term pressure on local tissues. In addition, the elderly often wear silk pajamas, which can also prevent bedsores to some extent.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that silk is flat, pungent and non-toxic. Pajamas made of silk are not only smooth, soft and comfortable, but also have the characteristics of easy drying, good hygroscopicity and good heat dissipation, which can enhance the vitality of epidermal cells, promote cell metabolism, and have a subtle massage effect on the skin, thus reducing the chances of microorganisms breeding on the skin and having special health care effects on the human body. Wearing silk pajamas for the elderly in bed for a long time has obvious inhibitory effect on skin itching caused by "mattress rash", which is unmatched by any other material.

shopping guide

Wearing pajamas at home is not only a fashion, but also a wise move for health reasons. Buying women's pajamas is more complicated than buying clothes. Pajamas should be comfortable and healthy.

Pay attention to the fabric and hygiene of pajamas.

The most ideal pajamas fabric should be knitted pajamas. Why? Because knitted pajamas are light and thin, they feel soft and comfortable. In addition, the best raw material should be cotton fabric, or at least cotton-based synthetic fiber.

In fact, from the health point of view, cotton-padded jacket is the most ideal, because cotton-padded jacket has strong hygroscopicity, can better absorb sweat on the skin, and has strong air permeability.

Pay attention to the color of pajamas to improve the quality of sleep.

Dark pajamas are not good for human health, while simple but elegant or light pajamas can calm the eyes. Bright colors can easily stimulate people's vision, make people unable to relax, and make it difficult for nervous people to fall asleep.

The size of pajamas should be large rather than small.

Of course, pajamas are different from the clothes you wear. Sleeping is the only time of the day to relax. So, don't have any other unnecessary thoughts, just sleep comfortably, wear loose pajamas and let your body have enough space to stretch in your clothes.

Although silk pajamas are smooth and comfortable, beautiful and sexy, they can't absorb sweat, so they are a good choice as sexy pajamas.

Pajamas are also a kind of clothing. Although their styles are not as varied as ordinary clothes, in general, pajamas can be divided into the following categories.

The first one is a skirt with suspenders, which is mainly suitable for summer wear. It is full of fashion sense and can best show the sexy charm of women. The second is a split suit. This kind of pajamas is mainly designed from two aspects: convenience and comfort. Compared with skirts, suits are not too heavy and easy to move.

Choose the right pajamas

There are two popular pajamas brands: silk pajamas and cotton pajamas.

1. Silk pajamas are smooth and soft, which can have a subtle massage effect on the skin, absorb and help eliminate sweat and secretions on the skin, and keep the skin clean. Threonine and sericin contained in silk can improve blood circulation, enhance the vitality of epidermal cells, prevent skin aging and effectively protect human skin from ultraviolet rays.

2. Cotton pajamas have strong hygroscopicity, can well absorb sweat on the skin, are soft and breathable, and can reduce skin irritation and avoid allergies and itching, so this kind of clothing is the most comfortable to wear. .

Pajama color selection

In terms of color, most consumers will choose a more elegant light color, which is suitable for family wear and has the effect of calming eyes, while bright pajamas will affect people's mood relaxation, thus affecting rest.

Therefore, you should choose all kinds of pink pajamas, such as pink, pink green, pink yellow, beige and so on.

The style of pajamas

In the choice of pajamas, pajamas should have enough width before and after, and the style should be open. Because when you sleep, your chest, abdomen and back are tightly tied, and you will have terrible nightmares.

In addition, pajamas should be easy to wear, take off and wash, and fabrics should be diversified. All kinds of soft, breathable, crisp, smooth, easy to absorb sweat, elegant and colorful fabrics, such as brocade, printed Fuchun spinning, silk-wrapped cotton and other fabrics of pajamas, are favored by young people.

Matters needing attention

edit

Pajamas with elastic bands around the waist.

This kind of pajamas is easy to draw red marks on the waist, which affects the blood circulation of the body and makes the legs swollen and even numb. When you buy pajamas, you can choose a waist, especially if your waist and abdomen are fat. Be sure to make sure your pants are loose. When you sleep, tie your belt a little loosely so that your waist can rotate freely.

Red or yellow pajamas.

Bright red, orange and yellow can make people feel nervous and excited, which is not conducive to sleep. In addition, some dark pajamas may add more chemicals when dyeing, which is not only bad for the skin, but may even cause cancer. It is recommended to choose elegant and relaxed colors, such as pink, green and beige.

Siamese pajamas

This kind of pajamas will affect the movement of turning over when sleeping. For example, the corners of clothes are pressed under your body, or clothes are all piled up on your chest, which will not only affect your breathing, damage your bone health, but also make you catch a cold. It is best to choose split pajamas, which are comfortable to wear and easy to move.

Pajamas with a hood.

When sleeping, the hat will "hold up" the neck, causing pain, stiff neck and other discomfort, affecting the quality of sleep. In addition, the oppression of the neck will also lead to poor blood circulation, insufficient blood supply to the brain and shallow sleep. The collar of pajamas should be loose enough, try to choose a flat round neck or a "U" collar.

Thick knitted pajamas.

This kind of pajamas has a thick texture and hard edges at the seams, which will irritate the skin and lead to shallow sleep. It is best to choose cotton or silk pajamas, which are smooth, soft and comfortable to the touch and have fine stitches.

Tight pajamas.

Tight pajamas look fashionable and sexy, and are very popular with young women. But this kind of pajamas will cling to the body, which is not conducive to skin perspiration and body temperature regulation, and will also affect blood circulation and make people have nightmares. Therefore, choose pajamas that are easy to put on and take off and loose enough.

A little thick pajamas.

Some pajamas are thick and furry and look warm, but they will increase the friction with the bed and quilt, which is not conducive to the free rotation of the body, hinder the relaxation of muscles and the adjustment of sleeping posture, and make people more tired as they sleep, so they are only suitable for home clothes. Pajamas don't need to be very thick. Light and soft are good pajamas.

Pajamas made of chemical fiber fabric.

Chemical fiber and wool fabric are easy to generate static electricity, and direct contact with the skin will stimulate the skin, leading to decreased immunity and nervous disorder. At the same time, they do not absorb sweat, which is not conducive to body temperature regulation during sleep. It is best to choose pure cotton pajamas, which are soft, breathable and hygroscopic, and can absorb sweat on the skin well. Cotton fabric is less irritating to the skin and will not cause allergies and itching.

Selection and maintenance

edit

In summer, we should choose a light, soft, breathable and drape fabric, which can absorb heat and sweat, while in spring and autumn, it is required to keep warm, relaxed and comfortable. Fabric patterns should be elegant and regular, with small floral or checkered patterns. You can choose a slightly thicker color and pattern in winter. Pajamas should be washed and dried frequently, and silk should be dried in the shade, not exposed to the sun. Sweat a lot in summer, so you should change your pajamas frequently.

1. When cleaning silk pajamas, be sure to turn the clothes upside down. Dark silk pajamas should be washed separately from light ones.

2. Sweating silk pajamas in summer should be washed immediately or soaked in water, not washed with hot water above 30 degrees;

3. Please use special silk washing products, avoid using alkaline detergent, soap, washing powder or other detergents, and never use disinfectants for silk clothes, let alone soak them in washing products; When washing, rinse it with clear water several times, gently rub it with your hands when washing, and don't twist the silk underwear hard after washing, so as not to wrinkle the clothes. In order to keep the silk pajamas bright and soft, a few drops of white vinegar can be added when rinsing with clear water at last;

4. When curing, the silk pajamas should be ironed when they are 80% dry, and it is not appropriate to spray water directly. The reverse side of clothes should be ironed, and the temperature should be controlled between 100- 180 degrees. will

5. Soak the yellow silk clothes in clean rice washing water and change the water once a day. After three days, the yellow will fade. If there are yellow sweat stains, you can wash them off with wax gourd juice;

6. Pour a proper amount of shampoo into clear water (the amount is equivalent to silk detergent), and put it into silk clothes to wipe it lightly, which will be very clear, because the hair also contains a lot of protein, and so does the silk fabric.

7. When there are more than two colors on the clothes, it is best to do a fading test, because the color fastness of silk clothes is relatively low. The easiest way is to soak it with a light-colored towel, press it for a few seconds and gently wipe it. If the towel is dyed by silk underwear, it can't be washed and can only be dry-cleaned; Secondly, washing silk chiffon and satin clothes should be dry-cleaned.

According to the style of pajamas, pajamas can basically be divided into three types: suspenders, split, and one-piece nightdresses.

Sling skirt

Sling pajamas are mostly used in summer. Because of the hot summer, people's underwear is often wet with sweat. Therefore, it is necessary to solve the problem of sweat and wet, but also to consider the beauty, so suspenders pajamas appeared.

The quality of suspender pajamas mainly includes silk, spun silk, cotton and linen blended and pure cotton. Made of these materials

Putting on pajamas, it absorbs sweat and is not close to the body. That kind of elegant feeling is really fascinating.

Split suit

The biggest advantage of split pajamas is that they are comfortable to wear and easy to move. Most women who stay at home are willing to choose this style of pajamas.

The style of split pajamas is mainly reflected in the change of upper collar type. Western-style small coat with collar is the most common one. Its loose design and two large patch pocket fully demonstrate its practical value.

Another beauty of lapel design is to expose a woman's neck, so that women at home can decorate their necks. It is not only convenient to clean, but also avoids the disadvantages of wearing pullovers.

In addition to the small lapel style, lapel shirt style is also the most common. Lapel pajamas increase the flexibility of neck decoration, and the buttons on the neck can be tied or unbuttoned, which looks casual, but actually very innovative.

In particular, in order to cooperate with the Year of the Loong, some brands draw auspicious patterns of dragons and phoenixes on the front of jackets, and integrate the charm of national culture into clothing.

Siamese pajamas

In the pajamas family, it appeared earlier, and it is probably this one-piece nightgown that is called pajamas. The appearance of one-piece nightgown not only makes people's clothes work and stay at home, but also implies that people's living standards have really improved.
