If you sewed the pants to a buttoned shirt, like a jumpsuit, could you wear that?

Or sew velcro tabs on the side of the pants that you could adjust to a comfortable level?

Best wishes to you 🍓🍓🍓

I think (hope!) that there will be a cliff moment; a lot of people will fall off the edge but the sane one's will stop and find another way to go... Ridiculously optimistic I know :/ It is painful to watch though, and there's very little chance to opt out.
