Bloomers are an article of clothing
invented by
Amelia Bloomer to change the way women
dressed. The earliest known bloomers were
like baggy pants (worn below a skirt), to
preserve Victorian decency while being less
of a hindrance to women's activities than
the long full skirts of the period (see
Victorian dress reform).
In the 20th-century, they became gym shorts
for girls to wear.
The modern Japanese version of bloomers has the entire legs exposed and are pronounce burûmâ:
- The Dragon Ball character Bulma is named after bloomers.
- The Street Fighter character Sakura Kasugano wears red bloomers under her sailor fuku. Most Westerners confuse bloomers with panties since their designs are almost the same in Japan, but bloomers are a bit thicker and come in bold colors.
