Визначення та Значення "chemise"

What is a "chemise"?

A chemise is a loose-fitting undergarment or sleepwear garment that originated in medieval times and is typically made of lightweight and breathable fabric like cotton or silk. It is usually worn as a slip or nightgown and has a straight, simple design that falls loosely on the body. Chemises can come in various lengths, from the hips to the ankles, and may have different features such as lace, ribbons, or embroidery for added embellishment. They are commonly worn for comfort, modesty, and as an alternative to more restrictive undergarments.
