Foolishly bought a drapey plain navy jumpsuit for a wedding as I have to wear ankle boots to support weak joint. Added smart jacket. All fine, but cannot get zip up and down alone. Tried safety pin on a string but it won't go the whole way. With age,I suppose I am a bit bent. Any ideas? It cost quite a lot.

Oh Alison, the outfit sounds very stylish but I'm afraid I don't know what to suggest. Unless you have a close friend or female family member who can accompany every time you need to use the loo... ;)

There are some gadgets for sale on Amazon, sound similar to safety pin on string idea. Worth having a look perhaps? I haven't tried any. Jumpsuit sounds lovely.

Wear it back to front!

Whoever you get to help you had better come to the wedding with you or you will not be able to pee! grin

A paper clip with a coat hanger attached?

Oh, you can't really take a coat hanger in your handbag! blush a pipe cleaner?

You are right Lucky. I was never impressed by those adult babygroes "onesies" for nightwear for that reason. grin
