No. I think they are better for men. Just unzip. Carefully.

id never wear one because id never get it off in time to have a wee lol..

I think they are meant to changed into when tired workers come home and just want to flop.

Grannya, it's an original Norwegian one I have got for DS. I think his idea is to save on heating bills!

They should never be worn out of the house.

Should say 'wear'
I would only wear one at home. I think it's a brave person who ventures out in one.
As for getting up in the night for the loo, the ones I've looked at say not to be worn as sleep wear.

number DD asked for one for her birthday in October.
I'd west one if I was a few stone lighter.

Saw a Panda in Morrison's car park yesterday and a fat fairy in the chip shop

I would rather shoot myself in the left tit foot than wear a Onesie .
Make your Ass look huge !

Wisewoman , I remember those , if you wanted "to go" had to nigh on strip off.tchwink

Remember hot pants? We were out at a restaurant for a meal once and the other female-half was wearing them. She went off to the loo then reappeared in seconds with an SOS for me to get her out of them smartish.

DD was completely unnerved when travelling home from London on the train last week she was chatted up by a man wearing a giraffe onesie.

The very thought of undressing every time I need the loo would certainly put me off. I remember in the seventies "boiler suit" type garments were very fashionable. I had one and visits to the loo were a nightmare - and in those days I could "hold on" for a long time. Nowadays when I need to go, I need to go. Great fun for young people with strong bladders.

Sounds like the ultimate lover's challenge|!!

My son and daughter in law (24) both have to wear formal clothing for work and love to change into their onesies when they're at home. They bought the original Norwegian ones about three years ago and the cost amounted to about the same price as I paid for my (admittedly cheap) first car!! tchconfused

The last thing I want to do when getting up for pee in the middle of the night or going anywhere else in one during the day would be having to take the whole damn thing off to do a pee. I would probably end up dangling a sleeve down the loo.
I saw a youngish woman in one in town on Sunday it was a dull brown colour and she did look a mess. They are the most dreadfully unflattering garments ever.

I paid one hundred quid for the first two sizes I sent for. They both looked huge and by the time I got to the third size, they had gone up by forty pounds due to demand. I suppose the weather will go mild now. tchhmm

jinglbellrocks Tue 17-Dec-13 15:39:55

Oi! I've bought my son one. tchhmm tchgrin

I know they`re getting terribly popular, but I don`t know of a single person who would appreciate having one bought as a pressie.

LizG Tue 17-Dec-13 11:46:37

They are adult babygros. What happens in an emergency tchgrin is what would stop me wearing one - well that and my looking totally stupid in it of course.

harrigran Tue 17-Dec-13 11:20:52

I would say so. We used to have all in one sleep suits with a flap and buttons over the derriere.

Lying in bed last night, listening to the wireless ( as one does) Winston Churchill was mentioned. It said they remembered him wearing a sort of overall thing. I presume this was his 'siren suit'.
Was this the original onesie, I wonder?
