Our Split Drawer Bloomers, also known as pantaloons, are a historically accurate and comfortable alternative to the restrictive dresses worn by women in the 19th century.
Made from a white, breathable polyester-cotton blend broadcloth, these bloomers feature elastic at the waist and bottom pant leg for a comfortable fit. We have added white lace at the bottom of the legs for an extra detailed look.
They are suitable for Victorian, Civil War, and historical reenactment events, as well as for costumes and cosplay. They were developed in the 19th century as a healthful and comfortable alternative to American women's heavy, constricting dresses. They take their name from Amelia Bloomer, a prominent women's rights activist who advocated for the garment as a symbol of women's liberation and equality.
These undergarments are designed to be worn as an alternative to traditional petticoats.
