The Victorians of course didn’t have sweatpants, but could this historical fashion garment be the closest equivalent?
This is one of my all-time favourite garments, and for historical clothing, they’re also fairly easy to sew and beginner-friendly.
The example I made in this #shorts is all completely handsewn, created with a Scottish wool tartan and lined with linen. I could live in this thing forever, it’s so comfortable.
