The "Undress"

I can't decide if this is genius or idiotic: http://www.theundress.com/

For those of you who can't see this "mobile changing room", it is a dress that you put under your top and over your bottom so you can change in public without anyone seeing.

It is really difficult to describe!

    @BFDeal great idea for people who exercise outdoors where there are no toilets or changing facilities as it can be used to change from regular clothes into exercise clothes. or from a wetsuit/swimming costume into dry clothes as there are often no facilities on a beach.

    likewise for yoga in the park etc or a run before work and there are no facilities to get changed in.

    I would never be able to change my bra using that. It's all good and dandy if you don't wear heavy duty workout bras and heavy duty regular bras. Or can wear the uni-boob bras they're showing in that video, but it wouldn't work for me.

    Why would one need to change in public? Is this really something that comes up THAT frequently?

    I've had it one time exactly in my whole life - at a beach where there were apparently no change rooms. It's not that common.

    My solution has been to slouch down and change quickly in my car.

    Why not just change in the car?

    I don't have a car.... you might not want to be wet/in sweaty clothes on the train/bus/walk home or you might not want to change into a bikini in front of everyone at the beach.

    Same. I have everything all laid out on the parcel shelf in the order I'll put them on. There's not much dignity in a naked chubby woman wrestling her way out of a soaking wetsuit in a carpark, but there's not much else to do but bare my bum (as briefly as possible!)

    Though having had a proper look, it seems a good idea. Not sure how it would stand up to the wriggling ministry of silly walks jumping of westuit removal though.

    I've seen it and I think it's super cool.

    I have a car, but my windows are not tinted so....

    So no shower after that long run huh? I feel sorry for the people you work with.

    I don't go running personally myself. but I would wipe myself dry with a towel and apply deodorant before getting into clean dry clothes, much better than staying in sweaty clothes all day. Then have a shower when i get home depending on where you are/schedule etc. not everyone showers every day, and sometimes it's just not possible to shower after exercise especially if outdoors, if there are no shower facilities at work etc.

    I've been running on my lunch and no one has complained yet. Baby wipes are pretty nifty. and I wear deodorant. Sometimes.

    or maybe I just have really awesome BO I'm not sure.

    You have to learn from teenage girls. My daughter is 14 and can change at a soccer field from her uniform into jeans and shirt including changing her bra and undies without so much as seeing her belly. No sure how these girls do it, but they do. LOL

    I wear 28FF /30G bras, I'll let you know how it works when mine arrives :)

    There's a video of a woman getting out of a wetsuit on their website if you scroll down so i guess it can be done: http://www.theundress.com/

    I used to have to do it all the time - at smaller horse shows when you need to scramble between classes to change clothes and it's just not reasonable in a Port-o-let. Barely enough room to stand, and you sure don't want to touch anything.

    Changing from the waist up without flashing anyone is usually easy once you get the hang of it. Waist down was a problem, so we'd use an empty horse stall and a look-out. I'd have preferred the undress for that part.

    I regularly swim with friends off a harbour slip with tourists walking by regularly. When I'm done I just walk back up the slip, drop my trunks and dry off and get dressed. On-lookers are usually too gob-smacked to say anything and I'm usually too high on endorphins to care! A dressing robe would just slow down the process of getting dry and dressed which brings me ever closer to hyperthermia so I don't care too much about being seen "undress"ed in public.

    ... when I strip out of my wetsuit, I just take it off. Let the world see my hairy, lube slathered chest. When I drop the jammers, just put a towel around your waist.

    OK, Carl. Stop it! That is just not right. I am a male. I am over 40 years old too. And nobody wants to see us naked. NOBODY! So, at the very least, go some place relatively private, wrap a towel around your waist, drop your trunks and pull up some dry pants, and then drop the towel. Or put yoga pants on over your wet suit and live with the dampness for a bit. Your behavior is just not right....I am not surprised people are speechless.

    I grew up in the back stage of a theatre. I have no modesty and no need for something like this.

    Haha! Wonderful description of that. . . Monty Python and all!

    I guess one could just use a normal full skirt? That's what I often do at the beach because I dislike using the usually dirty changing rooms. :)

    haha! - you can't be serious! You're - you're serious aren't you?! I'm speechless. I'm going to go out immediately and buy a bathing machine straight away.

    Why is it that the people that undress in public are never the people you want to see naked?

    Please do, I'm roughly the same size. I feel like my boobs would pop out under the sports bra if I tried to thread the cloth under the underwire.

    It's actually illegal to be without pants/bottoms in public so if a cop ever sees you, you could be arrested.
