Why Don't Trousers Have Different Coloured Legs?

[plowter]

Saw a like-student-yah today wearing breeks with different coloured legs. Made me wonder why we don't see more. Is there anything aesthetically wrong with wearing clothes with differently coloured legs or sleeves?

[Cloverjo]

Yes, it just looks silly, IMO.

[emmie]

depends on what type of work one does, can't see going to the office in multi coloured trousers, girls maybe, but not blokes, i think it would look a bit odd.

[plowter]

Does it seem odd because we're not used to it?
Or do does clothing have to be symmetrical?

Who was the comedian that wore a suit that was black on the left and white on the right? His hat, too. He kept turning round, side on, to have a conversation with himself.
I was amused, anyway.

Mr T has a jumper with different coloured sleeves. It's lovely. I made it.

[emmie]

sounds like the sort of thing Morecambe and wise would do..

Differently coloured sleeves seem sensible to me, Tilly.
Makes it easier to get dresed.

[jno]

are there more than one, Tilly? That must be tricky. My great grandfather had exactly the same (rather unusual) name as the man next door; and both were carpenters too. They were always getting each other's mail. My ggf gave himself the middle initial K to solve the problem.

[emmie]

why would it make it easier to get dressed,

[Tilly2]

(Yes, he also has his gloves, on a string, threaded up his sleeves. ;-)

[plowter]

Are those siamese octuplets, emmie?

[Tilly2]

That's a great thread, emmie. I like that.

[emmie]

its weird isn't it, as to gloves on threads, i had those as a child, so you didn't lose your gloves, elastic from one sleeve to the other

[Tilly2]

Link, I mean. Not thread.

[emmie]

thanks... was trying to remember the comedian who did the half woman half man routine, i do remember it, sort of Eric Morecambe kind of thing.

Jaysus, that link has freaked my eyes out, emmie.
