History of occurrence

The master’s underwear was sewn in Russia since the time of tsarism. Later, when the revolution took place, they continued to manufacture linen and tried to maintain quality and bright colors. However, in the 20s of the last century, everything changed. In order to equalize all rights for the fair sex, they began to produce clothing that was affordable for every Soviet woman. In stores and on the market, you could only get a discreet combination, which some even managed to boil to remove stains. Only the wives of large officials had the opportunity to order beautiful silk underwear from foreign catalogs.

After the war, women's combinations for dress made of natural silk were gradually imported into the Soviet Union. Soviet ladies at first perceived them as ordinary holiday clothes and wore them for going to the cinema or to a concert.

After some time, namely in the 50s of the last century, the government introduced new standards in the production of underwear. So, a silk combination appears in the wardrobe of a Soviet woman. And after a couple of decades, the production of combinations of fabrics with the addition of synthetics (for example, viscose, nylon, etc.) begins.

Underwear

As for the fashion trends of that time, during the Union of Women, in order not to flaunt the body in a transparent dress, a combination was necessarily worn under it. Moreover, the latter should have been slightly shorter in length than the upper dress, so that the edges do not protrude, which was considered very indecent in society.

In the 1990s, gradually women's combinations under the dress were transformed from ordinary everyday things into clothes of an erotic nature.

Modern tendencies

Today, underwear on the market is represented in such a variety that combinations are no longer the only option. However, there are several types of similar shirts that are offered for different occasions: for sleeping, at home and putting on a dress.

The first option is usually the simplest, because for sleep, as a rule, they sew an unremarkable shirt with a minimal amount of decor. Typically, such combinations are made from natural materials.
