Kwiminyaka ye-1920 kunye ne-1930, i-silk-printed i-cloth yokugqoka isambatho esinxitywe ngumdlali uCarol Lombard kwi-movie ethi "Twentieth Century Express" ngokuthe ngcembe yaba "yi-protagonist" yegumbi lokulala.
Kwiminyaka ye-1950 kunye ne-1960, iingubo zokulala ezine-nylon kunye nekotoni ecocekileyo njengeempahla kwaye ziprintwe ngemibala enemibala kunye neepatheni eziyingqayizivele ziye zaba "iintandokazi ezintsha," ezingafaniyo neengubo zokulala esizibona ngoku.
Emva kokuthetha ngeegawuni zokunxiba, iilokhwe zasebusuku, neengubo zokulala, unokubuza, sizinxibe nini ngoku iiPyjama? Oku kubulela kuCoco Chanel. Ukuba wayengazange aqulunqe iisuti ezibini ezidityanisiweyo eziphothiweyo ngoo-1920, abasetyhini babengenakukwazi ukwamkela iipjama eziziqwenga ezibini ezilandelayo.
Ngenxa yokukhululeka kokunyakaza, iipajama ziye zathandwa kakhulu, kwaye umthamo wentengiso ungaphezulu lee kwiipajama ezinithiweyo kunye nesilika, kwaye izitayile ezininzi zenoveli ziye zafunyanwa.
Ngo-1933, abafazi baseFrentshi abanencasa yefashoni ekhethekileyo baxubene kwaye badibanisa iipjama ezinamaqhekeza amabini, iihempe zasebusuku, kunye nezinye iimpahla zokulala, zaba ngabokuqala ukuqalisa indlela “yokunxiba iipjama zangaphandle.”
Emva kweminyaka emininzi, uninzi lwabasetyhini basezidolophini bawushiyile iteyiphu ebomvu yokunxiba iimpahla zokulala ngexesha leVictorian, kodwa bazuze ilifa labafazi baseFransi "abanxibe iipajama zangaphandle." Nangona kunjalo, bayitolika njani into abayinxibayo ngaphandle kweepijama zabo?
Ndingatsho nje ukuba baye baba nesibindi ngakumbi kwaye banika umdla. Bafumana inkuthazo kwiimpahla zokunxiba, iilokhwe zasebusuku, iilokhwe zokulala ezazithandwa mandulo, yaye banxiba iimpahla zokulala xa besiya ngeentsuku, ukuya ezivenkileni, kwanokuhamba kwikhaphethi ebomvu. Ngaphezu koko, ngamanye amaxesha iphuma kwelona nqanaba liphezulu lokunxiba iipyjama-ayibukeki kangako njengeepyjama.
