These come up generous in comparison to our regular ladies swing trousers so you can choose a size down

Beach pyjamas of the 1930s were sold separately or made as sets, trousers and a top and perhaps a jacket to coverup with.

We are really delighted with this fabric. It is a nice medium weight so it isn’t see through and it is ever so slightly stiff, so it holds that wide leg in a beautiful shape. It has a little bit of stretch to it and it is really comfy. The floral design hides lumps and bumps and it’s truly delightful to wear. It is 97% Cotton and 3% Spandex, and is happy in a 30 degree wash. It will need ironing, but it does Iron beautifully and it doesn’t crease up terribly.

If you need to hem them, (and any trousers) do wash them the way you intend to always wash them first. If you use a dryer, then dry them too. All natural fabrics tend to shrink a tiny bit and it can become obvious when the difference between the perfect length and too short is only half an inch, as it is with trousers.

The colours are a light taupe/beige background to the lovely trailing khaki and grey leaves . The blooms are in pale peach, red , Ivory  and blue-grey.  We’ve matched them with khaki toned imitation horn buttons. There are small amounts of dark charcoal tones too – so it could lend itself to black accessories.

Size check – the slight stretch allows them just a little more room. You could size down if you are choosing between sizes

We are looking forward to dancing days, picnic days and holidays in these.

Both beach holiday worthy and look great on the dance floor. You could mix and match with one of our blouses, either as a top tucked in or knotted in front, or as a jacket over a sunbathing top.

We added an elasticated waistband at the back. It's not authentic, but we thought of everyone at the beach, eating ice creams and feeling hot, and sitting on the sand. A firm waistband just doesn't seem comfortable enough. So we made the decision for comfort, and added the sash so you can hide that elastic and swan about like a film star with a lovely long sash about your waist.

Once you've placed your order we'll ask our UK manufacturers to finish it for you. It could take up to a week. (We'll keep you informed regarding the delivery date)
