ALL WOMEN will know the peril of choosing a jumpsuit on a night out and finding yourself semi-naked in a bathroom while going to the loo.
Now, one genius fashionista has created a toilet-friendly one-piece that avoids you having to take it all off in the first place.
Hetty Lawrence has come up with a jumpsuit design that has an unbuttonable, rezippable bum area.
The 29-year-old from London, who works in marketing, got the bright idea after a stranger accidentally saw her half-nude over the top of a toilet cubicle at an event.
She has named her brand Léim – which means “jump” in Irish Gaelic.
There are currently two styles – the ‘Sisterhood’ and ‘Bringing Sexy Back’.
The former is a sleeveless number that comes in denim, velvet and linen, and can be worn two ways thanks to handy cross-straps.
Meanwhile, the ‘Bringing Sexy Back’ piece is long-sleeved and is available in rose lyocell and navy lyocell.
Sustainability is a key part of the brand, and the jumpsuits are made in a Sheffield factory.
Hetty told the Huffington Post: “I could have used a factory in Europe, but I don’t want to be shipping them to the UK, only to send them all over the world again.
“I can visit the factory – jump on the train in a day and go see them. That was really important to me. “Some of the factories I saw were genuinely terrible. I was worried for the staff in those environments.”
The jumpsuits cost between £219 and £245, with sizes ranging from a UK 6 to 18.
Hetty has launched a Kickstarter campaign, and those who pledge £50 can get a 15 per cent discount.
They will then start going into production in mid-August and be delivered to customers by October.
