I just could not leave these frightening relics from the Seventies behind, at a car boot, last summer! The heady mix of 68% polyester and 42% acrylic was just all too consuming!
Now, while the urge to buy them may have been strong, there was never any intention to wear them! It should be noted that they fit a 3/4 year old, but there is no way Id put anyone I know through the shame of wearing them, even as a joke!
For anyone who's interested the labels are below.

Come on - as clothing for little kids go, they aren't all that bad! If you ever see any beige Oxford bags with patch pockets, let me know! :)
Own up Jonny - you've tried to fit into them haven't you
Hi there!
I'm Miriam Steinhauser and I live in Holland. I collect Mothercare 1970's clothes and I wanted to ask you something. And i thought you might like it to see the actual catalogue pages of the 1979 catalogue in which these two dungarees were seen. I can't find your email adress though, here on your blog. Could you please email me on lijster12@hotmail.com if it's possible?
bye,
Miriam.
