With metal studs on them? Can't remember when I used to wear one, but I know I had one. Saw a girl with one on today, was a blast from the past!

Deirdre Barlow still wears them

I had one, with a gypsy skirt

In fact, it is probably still in my wardrobe, I might donate it to Granada Studios Smile

It was handy for hiding the fact I was pregnant in the first few months! Mine was khaki, it long ago went to the charity shop

Still worn, I think you'll find, by the type of woman who still worships at the altar of Nicky Hambleton Jones.

Usually seen wearing a brown velour fitted jacket, over a dusky pink polo neck. A burgundy cord calf length skirt (fitted over hips and thighs, flaring out at the knee). Matching tights, and burgundy pull-on suede boots with a mid- heel. And of course, the leather disc belt.

I did like the fashion for a low slung belt though, it suited my arse.
