Drawers

Japanese: ドロワーズ
Drawers
A pair of loose, short-legged undergarments worn by women around the waist. They were worn under long, puffy skirts. In Japan, they were called Zurosu, a loose pronunciation, but they were similar to Bloomers, short in length and with elasticated cuffs. They began to become popular after the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923 and the Shirokiya fire of 1932, and were widely used until the popularization of modern-day shorts.

腰まわりのゆったりした半ズボン状の女性の下ばき。長くふくらんだスカートの時代にはその下にはいていた。日本ではズロースとなまって呼ばれたが,丈が短く裾にゴムを入れたブルーマーズに近いもので,1923年の関東大震災と1932年の白木屋の火事が端緒になって普及しはじめ,現在のようなショーツが普及するまで広く用いられた。
