Attention Forum Fashionistas, The Suitsy!

[armadillo]

""If you want to look presentable without sacrificing comfort, this creative onesie is sure to suit your fancy.

 

The Suitsy, which was created by San Francisco real estate developer Jesse Herzog, resembles a business suit, complete with dress pants, a faux button-down shirt and a jacket.

 

However, it can be put on with a single zip — no folding, tucking or buttoning required.

 

“Imagine looking professional but feeling like you're in pajamas,” Herzog writes in his proposal. “Consider wearing a suit and a onesie at the same time.”

 

As of Monday morning, The Suitsy had gotten 793 votes on Betabrand, an apparel crowdfunding platform and online retailer.

 

The number of votes will determine if Betabrand goes forward with The Suitsy and brings it to the masses.""

Great idea! Now, if they sell it in 54 portly ... in navy pinstripe ...

 

And what about the tie?

There are days when I wouldn't mind wearing one. Betabrand also sells dress sweatpants. I've considered buying a pair or two.

Maybe it's just me, but I think it looks like hell. I get the feeling, that once worn a few times, people would be able to tell that it wasn't a real suit. Kind of like a Dickey or a clip on tie. They always looked like something you picked up at JCPenny on the sale rack.

This was in a Abbott and Costello movie, from many decades ago. The only difference is that Costello had a bow tie attached to the zipper, so he zipped it up using the tie.

 

I thought it was a joke then too.

Heh, I was thinking of posting about this company a few months ago. They've tried a bunch of PR moves already. One is using female PhD students and faculty to model their clothes.

I think you should FF. "This is right up your alley". The kitten would look stunning modeling clothes.

Thanks, BVB. Unfortunately, their shoot was done by the time I saw this. Too bad..
