"Lounging Pyjamas with Train" is a black velvet garment designed by Denise Vandervelde-Borgeaud, a Dutch fashion designer who died in 1936. The piece, housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the elegance and comfort of early 20th-century loungewear. Its loose silhouette, flowing train, and luxurious fabric suggest a time of relaxed sophistication. The garment's simple yet striking design reflects the minimalist aesthetics of the Art Deco era, a time when fashion embraced clean lines and functional beauty.
Comments
In the 1920s fashionable young women wore pyjamas as loungewear. Around 1930 they also began to wear them when they went out to dine with friends. These pyjamas may have been the creation of the famous French fashion designer Gabriëlle Chanel. A label is sewn into the left trouser leg on which is written: ‘Pyjama Abdulah, Chanel.’
