Beach Pajamas: From Sleepwear to Sportswear, an interview with Janine D'Agati and Hannah Schiff (Dressed Classic)
This week we revisit our 2024 conversation with fashion historians and vintage collectors Janine D'Agati and Hannah Schiff who joined us to discuss their book From Sleepwear to Sportswear: How Beach Pajamas Reshaped Women's Fashion. Their groundbreaking new research on beach pajamas uncovers a missing piece of the puzzle in women's adoption of pants in the early 20th century.
