The new fashion statement:

OVERALLS!

The working man's costume.
The rise of the proletariat.
And they're real comfy.
If you're a Democrat, you wear OVERALLS!

6. I've only worn one more comfortable and functional garment
in my life. That was a USAF flight suit, circa 1970.

3. As a chesty chick, that's not the most flattering look for me...
Maybe I can keep them for special occasions, like when I'm protesting the man?

9. Sorry
my extremely Freepezoid brother-in-law wears overalls... or coveralls, as he calls them. And he's fat, so it's not that nice a look, either.

Now I have a bad association with them.

12. We're takin' back "liberal" and we're takin' back "OVERALLS".
We're talkin' POCKETS here.

11. if i take those shoulder straps...
and sew them on as bondage straps to the legs, and then take the front and back chest panels and turn them into a frayed jean ultra-mini vest and arm bracers, do a below-the-navel V-angled waist, take out the crotch, and then couple it with a flannel bra... i think i might have something to sell over here in San Francisco! I'll call it "Horny Heathen in the Heartland" look. yes, this might be a good product to use.

13. I am blown away.
Truly.
You're a fashion designer, right?
On the flannel bra...Burberry plaid? For the jet setters?
(Is that a passe term now?)
Or something more Black Watch?
I think you're on to something here.

14. oh lordy no, just hang around them.
not a professional or in-training to be a professional designer. but we have lots of creative types up here, many of the design students on campus make their own clothes. some of their stuff is divine. their works with texture, patchwork panelling, and bias cut is outrageously beautiful. i envy their one-of-a-kinds. if i could persuade them to do a side project perhaps. i'll go bounce this idea off on them.
