house·dress /ˈhousdres/
A simple dress worn informally at home or for quick errands. The term originated in the late nineteenth century only to repopularize through the pandemic and is nostalgic for me as the outfitting of family matriarchs throughout my life. As my everything and everywhere dress from quarantine, pregnancy, nursing, to postpartum, it is intended to be worn as leisure garment, and is equally wearable as a house dress, a dressing-gown, a beach cover-up or even a party dress.
