The Seditionaries bondage suit of 1976 was inspired by American military fatigue trousers and the motorcyclists Belstaff jacket. It was first worn by Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols in Paris, and caused uproar. The trousers have a zippered seam under the crotch and a detachable black towelling bum flap, like a loincloth, and 'hobble' straps. Malcolm McLaren said 'Dye it black: make everything black, black, black.'
