History of the Modern Pyjama - Ana + Zac

We love pyjamas and we also love a little history so we delved deeper into how the pyjama got started and developed over time. Read on to learn about the history of the pyjama.    Pyjama sets have been around for hundreds of years. Early accounts of the pyjama date back to the 1600s. They were popular among both men and women in India, Iran, Pakistan and Bangladesh. They were typically loose fitting cotton pants tied at the waist and paired with a belted jacket.  In the late 1800s, Europeans adopted the styles from India and the drawstring waist and jackets became popular among mostly men as loungewear. During this time, pyjamas were seen as a luxury comfort item. Nightdresses were still very popular among the masses. Interestingly enough, the Zeppelin bombings of WW1 popularized the modern pyjama as we know
