do you refer to items of clothing as 'pieces'

[JustCallMeGoat]

if so, i suggest you remove your head from your ass forthwith.

naaaaaah!
never!

(to my mind it is another marketing term to infer gurt poshness...another way to subvert the way people think by creating another meaningless distinction)

think im blushing already at th e ranty ness of that...going to post anyway

If you have 'pieces' you probably 'team' them with other 'pieces'......

'Piece of arse' is what I hear when the term used to describe clothes or art or antiques.

I think it is an attempt to change the context of discussion from that of commerce into something where the item is the whole part of the discussion, and the price is irrelevant.
