We call what the Messengers were wearing "overalls". and they're definitely not leisure wear, at lest not under typical usage.

Oh my God, my fashion nightmare if women wear that stuff........, Not when Bananarama wore them in the 80s but that probably says more about me than dungarees (Brit usage) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Apparently the woman who plays Eileen in the video to Come On Eileen, Maire Fahey, is the sister of one of the Bananaramas Siobhan Fahey. That's my new favourite dungaree based fact.

felser Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 BTW, someone needs to do a CD issue of those Watson Roulette albums from the 70's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that dungaree fact. I also like Rowland and Dexy's a lot, despite some of their sartorial choices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
