Umm, not really! I understand that เสี้อชั้นใน is an undergarment, but I don't understand exactly what they are suggesting should not be worn. Is it a particular type of undergarment they are talking about, or are they saying that you should not wear only one undergarment? That is, are they saying that you should wear both underpants and an undershirt (or bra, for a lady)?

In those day there were no air conditioning or electric fan in houses, so ladies wore just undergarment walking around. Men did not wear any undershirt. What they were saying is that you should not wear only undergarment out in public. Ladies undergarment in those days were not bras. They were homemade loose fitting with spagghetti straps and gather around the chest area. I don't know whether this style of lady undergarment is what was worn through out the country or just in the countryside but this is what my mother wore when she was at home and not dressed up for any occasion. It is a variation of เสื้อคอกระเช้า. I think if you google the term you can see the sample of what they look like.
