The recently announced Virgin Atlantic Onesie is a two-piece sleep suit for first class passengers on the airline. Richard Branson, the founder of the British airline is known for his playful approach to innovation, but now he is catering to the inner child in all of us.
His customers don't have to worry about dressing their part when they fly with Virgin; they can literally sleep like a baby in comfort and class -- first class, that is.
The luxury onesies will be available to passengers starting in mid-June on select long-haul flights. They are a yoga pant and hoodie all in one, are all-black and feature the slogan "sleepy head" on the back. The onesie is said to blend "Virgin Atlantic's rock n' roll spirit with design expertise from OnePiece to offer unrivaled comfort for sky-high slumber."
