This nameless onesie was purchased on Gerrard Street East at Foxy Boutique: the best closed vintage shop in Toronto, I think. Michelle, Foxy herself, sold the dusty mauve statement to me for 10 dollars in 2003 and it remains my favourite fancy ensemble. With only a narrow rectangle exposing the back, this one-piece pantsuit is cinched high, draped right, all while simultaneously being tight and loose. I really love it. I don’t even know what fabric it’s made of but I sometimes dramatically daydream that it would be my Mrs. Havisham outfit, just withering away with and on me.
