Back in One Piece
This past weekend on my sojourn in California I was out with some friends at Playhouse in Hollywood, and we walked in on a dance floor full of people dressed in onesie sweatsuits like this:
Intrigued, I found out that the night was sponsored by a Norwegian company called One Piece. Apparently they have gained popularity in Scandinavia and Britain and have become popular with celebrities and to wear at clubs as a fashion statement. The suit was the brainchild of three Norwegians in their 20s, who simply wanted a comfortable garment to wear while relaxing at home. The company's motto is,"Either it’s after work, while studying or on a hung-over Sunday morning, this is a garment with a real statement - Who cares!
I don't know if I'd have the nerve to wear it out in public, but they look super comfortable and I could totally see myself bumming around at home in one of these. They are unisex, have a baggy fit, and come in a variety of colors. Personally, I like their new 2011 Marius pattern inspired by the classic design introduced in 1953 and worn by the famous alpine skier, fighter pilot, model and actor, Marius Eriksen.
So next time you're thinking about pulling on those old sweats, take it from One Piece - chill out and jump in!
