The modern house dress is an amazing thing. What could possibly be better than yoga pants hanging out at home? Well, let me tell you- it's a fabulous vintage idea for the modern woman!
I gloss over the history, so if you'd like to learn more, The Vintage Dancer (link below) goes over it pretty well as it pertains to particular decades, and, well, Google is a trove of info. A slightly more detailed, but still pretty superficial history is available on Wikipedia. Fashion history in general is pretty interesting- because hidden in the folds you can also see women's history- we've been telling our story with our clothes all along.
There's also a pretty good article on Refinery 29 about what it means for the modern woman living in these times rather than our grandmothers': https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/2020...

Dresses on forms from The MET, all designed by Claire McCardell- do go take a look, reading about individual designs are often fascinating in and of themselves:

And the screenshots of dresses were grabbed from Target, Amazon, H&M, Zulily, and Old Navy's websites, as named in the video. I trust you don't need links to find those stores :p But here's a few links to some good house dress candidates on Amazon, just in case :)
