Attack of the Print Playsuit – a River Island production

Of all of the great mysteries The Fashion Police have had to solve in our time, we think this is perhaps one of the greatest: the question of just how this 80s-tastic print play-suit came to sell-out in all sizes at River Island. (Who, by the way, were charging £44.99 for it. Not hugely expensive, but not exactly bargain-basement .Unlike, say, the play-suit itself.)
Have Florida pensioners suddenly started relying on River Island for their fashion needs, we wonder? Or is this item actually super-stylish, and our "loud print/jumpsuit" blinkers just aren't allowing us to see it?
It looks like something you’d buy at a souvenir store in Florida in the 80’s.
I’m actually warming to playsuits. But I don’t think I could wear one myself as I have a bladder the size of a pea.
TMI – sorry!
Looking at the top I was praying that this was a dress. I was so disappointed.
