    Even here in Seattle, the birthplace of the UK, I get alot of positive comments, and see alot less people in them than one might think.
    But I remember the first time I wore it in Portland, since I wore it to school, I was really nervous about it as well.

    Brilliant indeed! It'll hold the pleats in place as you get into the car. Neat suggestion, thanks Dunnigan, and thanks to whomever made it originally (was it this post I wonder?)

    Hamish mentioned the use of a turntable on a car seat in this post, but I'd never thought of the use of a towel as pleat-stabiliser.

    What a wonderful thing this board is!

    Best regards
