Five celebrity onesies we’d love to create

Posted on: 10/01/2014

Celebs love a onesie – it’s a well-known fact. Whether the Union J boys are larking about London in their all-in-ones or Fearne Cotton is relaxing in her onesie at the Radio One Live Lounge, you can’t keep those famous faces out of a cosy fleece-lined hood. We’ve made celebrity all-in-ones for the cast of Towie, the guys and girls from Steps and even the GB Olympics team – but there are celebrities who are yet to experience the allure of the onesie. We’ve come up with five celebrated individuals who we’d love to create a celebrity onesie for – would you buy a Morgan Freeman all-in-one or snuggle up inside a Germaine Greer Max Suit?

Morgan Freeman

Morgan Freeman is a man who exudes a kind of quiet dignity, providing the resonant, sonorous overtones of a thousand Hollywood voiceovers. After having played God in ‘Bruce Almighty’ and narrator Red in the classic ‘Shawshank Redemption’ Freeman has certainly landed some plumb roles in his career, but we can’t help but think that Morgan deserves to rest on his laurels and kick back in his very own signature onesie. Perhaps a grey, hooded all-in-one to match his Shawshank prison garb?

Germaine Greer

Never a person likely to mince her words, we have to admit to finding feminist icon Germaine Greer a little frightening. Greer’s campaigning on behalf of women’s liberation and the issues faced by aboriginal Australians is immensely inspiring, but the force of her personality can’t help but make us feel somewhat intimidated. We’d like to release a furry Germaine Greer Max Suit in honour of the woman herself – that way, we could ask her to sign our copy of ‘The Female Eunuch’ and wouldn’t be too scared to give her a hug while we’re at it...

Brian Blessed

Brian Blessed is the nation’s mad uncle – a shouty factory of profanity and ham acting from the old-school of theatrical training. Blessed is known for roles as varied as ‘Blackadder’ and ‘Flash Gordon,’ but we think the roly-poly thesp would look fantastic in his very own bespoke all-in-one. That jolly, bearded face peeking out from beneath two little bear ears? Classic. Brian Blessed would be our choice to play Santa Claus in an extravagant festive movie, if anyone’s asking...

Sophie Ellis-Bextor

Noughties songstress and Strictly star Sophie Ellis-Bextor might seem like a strange choice for our onesie rundown, but can you honestly imagine anyone better suited for a celebrity all-in-one? We think Sophie would look adorable in a onesie, and her naturally feline face would add an extra dimension to a hood topped with cat ears and even a little tiger tail poking out behind. A Sophie celebrity onesie might be just about the cutest garment we can think of – except maybe a Macaulay Culkin bespoke all-in-one circa 1990...

David Cameron

Prime Minister David Cameron was once memorably described as a ‘bacon replicant’ by TV presenter Charlie Brooker, and no matter what you make of Cameron’s policies it’s hard not to agree with Brooker’s words. If Cameron was a little more approachable and a little less ‘overgrown Eton boy’ perhaps the public would warm to him a little more. We think plonking Dave in a nice fluffy onesie would help to get the voting public on his side. Perhaps as a true blue Tory Dave would like his all-in-one in a fetching shade of aqua?

As much as we’d love them to become reality, these five celebrity all-in-ones are never likely to make it off of the drawing board. Fortunately, we already stock an incredible variety of celebrity signature onesies and if you don’t fancy any of those, you can always design your own bespoke onesie instead!
