What is a Chemise?
The big question that might have brought you here is what is a chemise exactly? To find the true origin of the chemise meaning, we need to go back to the 18th century when chemises were much more than the sensual pieces that they are today.
The original ‘undergarments’, a chemise warn by both men and women to keep clothing protected from oils on the skin. Acting as a barrier layer, they were straight-cut pieces of white linen that wash regularly, unlike outer clothing.
Now, a modern chemise is much more delicate and revealing than its ancestors, hence its sexy and sensual reputation. To be technical, a chemise is a sleeveless garment that hangs from the shoulders and fits loosely at the waist, and women today wear them in a plethora of different ways. If you’re ready to inject a little luxury into your wardrobe, then keep reading to find out how you can benefit from a satin chemise in your collection!
This may not seem like the glamourous and sleek chemises that we know today, they were soon popularise by Queen Marie Antoinette of France when she used ‘chemise’ to describe a new style of unfitted dress, the chemise à la reine.
