In the 80s and 90s this was a very popular piece of clothing. On the plus side, it didn't ride up out of your trousers and there was no visible clothing line either. On the down side, it did ride up elsewhere and the poppers were a bugger to refasten after a few drinks. Had there been overhead cameras in the girls' toilets of clubs and bars across the country they would have witnessed women wrestling with these over-sized babygros, bouncing gently off the toilet walls before finally managing to snap two of the studs together - although of course it would be the upper left to the bottom right. If you were lucky the two sides would hold for the rest of the evening, rather than popping apart while you danced to Sit Down by James, necessitating another trip to the ladies and a further uncoordinated dance in the cubicle.
So please, tell me I'm imagining this. If not, they should come with a health warning: 'This item of clothing will result in you spending most of your evening in the toilet. Wear at your own risk.'
