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.

Beautiful alluring classic ivory goes with everything and is certainly beach worthy. Ivory is deliciously clean, and can take bright colours, high contrast (black, navy or dark brown), macaroon pastels, rustic light natural tones (beige, tans) or MORE ivory. 

Rigorous testing was completed by Lori Jade (@greyhoundvintagetoo) with a 1920s flair(image 2) Here you can really see how wide they are! Yes, they do crease a little (and that's more obvious with lighter colours) but that's true of natural fibres such as linen. 
They are thick enough not to be see through but I suspect you will need skin coloured underwear. 

The fabric is lovely, and we were so glad to get our hands on it (It sells out each year). It is a stretch linen-Viscose with 27% Linen, 70% Viscose and 3% spandex.  The Linen lends it weight and that richness of long summer days at ease, the viscose lends it extra drape and swish (gotta love a swish) and the spandex helps the garment keep it’s shape.  Now a warning: It did shrink up a little when washed at 30 degrees, It went from 31” inside leg to 29.5” after ironing. This is common for linen and viscose and we have left 1.5” hem allowance to help if you need the length. 

Please do not use a dryer for viscose (any viscose, not just ours) as it will shrink in both length and width and you will not regain it when ironing it out. Washing will cause slight shrinkage

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.
