Would you spend your monsies on onesies?

The white ones look just like my one piece spraying suit, they just need to add the asperator and goggles.
No, I would not wear one, neither in public nor private.
On a practical note, as implied in the article, different parts of the body need different coverage and different levels of access.

I’m with Charlotte. Fine for women, if you want to be a retro-sporty Anneka Rice, or maybe even a practical alternative to a maternity dress, but why would any man want to dress up [or should that be down] to look like Jimmy Savile? Hopefully, people will come to their senses … .

In the Radio Times in days gone by, in between the adverts for garden sheds and corsets at the back end of the magazine, there were cute little line drawings of people donning their Cosijamas. Are these still around? [For our younger readers, I’m in the pre-duvet days of Brentford Nylons and their winceyette nighties here, with the slidy eiderdowns and the slippery pillows leading to a certain coolness in the night]. While I sympathise with Jen who justifies the joined-up jim-jams I choose Charlotte’s choice of chic attire.

I’m with Charlotte all the way. To be honest, I don’t even like to walk around the house (or sit on the sofa, for that matter) in my pyjamas – it makes me feel lazy. Even if I’m not about to leave the house, I like to fool myself into thinking that at any point I can be ready to leap off the sofa and spring into action.

I’m wondering where the 16,000 people sporting Debenham’s sold-out stock of onesies are hiding right now – I could use the back-up!

Nikki – I agree with you. Walking around in my pyjamas or in my onesie does make me feel lazy and demotivated. But sometimes, when you FEEL like being lazy, it’s the perfect outfit! Picture this: it’s a chilly Saturday night, -2 degrees outside and no-one’s out and about. So why not slip into a warm, fleecy onesie, curl up on the sofa with a bowl of popcorn and a good film and just let the stresses and strains of the week melt away?

I really don’t see any difference between a onesie or pyjamas – they’re both comfort clothing for wearing in bed or around the house and so both are perfectly legitamate. I don’t like wearing any clothes in bed so don’t have a onsie, but I’m quite tall and often find pyjama tops ride up and expose my back, so a onesie would counteract this perfectly. My partner does have one (or two) onsies and knowing that she is comfortable in it, while I have my slanket, means we can relax more when squished up on the sofa.

Although based on current temperatures, I may have to borrow one of her onsies to wear under my football kit for tonight’s match.

Onesies are the best!
