    Hi,

    Does anyone know where I could buy something to cover and protect my clothes so they won't get paint on them as I'm starting a course on oil painting?

    Thanks

    Emer

    I tracked one down after much searching on the web. It's a website catering for stylish solutions for special needs called Seenin in the UK and has a microfibre overall that seems exactly what I am looking for!:)


    "Seenin microfibre overalls are exceptionally useful garments, designed to protect clothing during mealtimes, art, cooking or craft activities. Ideal for the messiest occasions and everyday use, the Seenin overall is available in a choice of three sizes and one colour.

    The overall is very easy to put on and take off, with Hook and Loop; back fastenings and bat wing sleeves. The sleeves can be adjusted to the right size with the Hook and Loop; wrist tabs, for a flexible fit. Seenin Overalls have an additional feature of a hanging hook, which allows for easy storage.

    Microfibre overalls are soft and smarter looking than the PVC version, ideal for discreet protection when it isn’t necessary to have the waterproof element of PVC. Both fabric options are navy and available in small, medium and large sizes."

    Why not just wear old clothes or an apron- unless you're into action painting there's no need for overalls:)

    You could always do a Nell McCafferty and paint in the nip. :D

    Thanks to you both for your replies :)
    The reason I need to cover my clothes is the classes are on the 5th Floor of Dundrum Shopping Centre and if I want to go shopping afterwards I don't want t be wandering around in old clothes with paint all over them, nor in the nip!
