All Night Flightsuit
From the catalog: “Cotton fleece is so comfortable it begs to be used for something other than sweats. When we made the All-Night Flightsuit, our idea was to give the intercontinental traveler a cozy yet stylish alternative to tight waistbands, jabbing buttons, and rumpled clothing at journey’s end. Perfect for the redeye: the elastic and drawstring waistband never binds. Simply add scarf, belt and boots to make a stylish impression at terminals from Shannon to Shanghai.”
The All-Night Flightsuit is one of the items whose origins are detailed in the Wild Company biography. As co-founder Patricia Ziegler accounts, she was working in Italy designing the Linea Viaggio luggage and wanted something comfy for the long flight home to San Francisco. She drew up a design and had the Italian factory whip one up for her. She was met by husband Mel at the airport who immediately approved.
I loved this jump suit so much. I wore it in the 80’s and into the 90’s until it was falling apart
This was my favorite piece from BR. I got it as a teenager and wore it all the time, mostly for sleeping in! It wore out after many many years.
