bloomers definition and meaning

What are "bloomers"?

Bloomers are a type of loose-fitting undergarment that were originally designed to provide women with greater freedom of movement, particularly during physical activities such as cycling or sports. They typically feature a loose, billowy design with an elastic waistband and leg openings that end just above the knee. Bloomers are commonly made from lightweight, breathable materials such as cotton or linen and may be decorated with lace or other embellishments. While bloomers were originally designed for practical purposes, they have also become popular as a fashion statement in their own right, and are often worn as part of a vintage or retro-inspired outfit.
