Growing up I was a big fan of I Love Lucy and one of my favorite looks that she wore was a pant suit that had a sheer overlay, so chic for a bandleader's wife. Saunder's look would probably not get past the censors in Lucy's day, hence the need to wear pants and not just bloomers. Its no mistake that I get a 50's Lucy vibe from this look, Tim Blanks referenced Claire McCardell (american fashion designer in the 50's) when he wrote about Saunders show for style.com See that I am on the same page as a well know fashion writer, I just got there from another frame of reference.
