What is tap pants?

Tap pants, also known as French knickers or dance shorts, are a type of lingerie or sleepwear that resemble shorts or loose-fitting shorts. They are typically made of lightweight and breathable materials such as silk, satin, or cotton.

Tap pants are characterized by their high-waisted design and loose, flowing silhouette that is comfortable and flattering on a variety of body types. They often feature delicate lace trims, scalloped edges, or decorative details for a more feminine look.

Originally popular in the 1920s and 1930s as loungewear or sleepwear, tap pants have made a comeback in recent years as a stylish and comfortable alternative to traditional underwear. They are often worn as sleepwear, loungewear, or even as outerwear for a sexy and vintage-inspired look.

Tap pants can be paired with a camisole, bralette, or loose-fitting top for a relaxed and feminine ensemble. They are a versatile addition to any lingerie collection and can be found in a wide range of colors, patterns, and styles to suit individual preferences.
