Clearly in the past the owner of the rompersuit would have been required to make frequent references to how practical it was, lament the passing of straight skis and rear entry boots and accessorize with a bum bag.
More recently one would have had to affect an air of "having a laugh" fancy dress irony or simply be French.
I suspect however that you may have purchased a Nu Scandi, cutting edge of hip fartbag. I am unclear on the precise ettiquette as I don't believe Debrett's is up to speed. I suspect you get to be cooler than cool and, if you wish act like a total douche, or alternatively adopt a zen-like calm. Regardless someone, somewhere will still be sniggering

kevindonkleywood, the NuScandi (like it fatbob) fartbag can only be worn by skiers who ski lines so sick they can only be seen from a distance by other more human skiers. Examples are dropping down the Mallory/Eugster, scaring the wits out of the punters on the AdM cable. Anyone wearing it remotely near a piste will get the urine extracted, unless they're tucking down the mogul field switch just to get back to the lifts.

15 years ago it was retro and possibly amusing. Now you are just a teat. Burn it and save your grandchildren the embarassment

Fartbag with bumbag is a good start. Fluorescent ski poles, goggles and headband are a must along with white rear entry ski boots (think stormtrooper), a pair of old straight skis (ebay) and mittens. Ski as though you are emptying your bowels (back seat) and swear out loud in a thick English accent (North or south) every time you hit any sort of imperfection in the snow or make a turn. As with the Scouts/cubs the more badges/medals you have on the fartbag the better (e.g. SKGB purple heart). Talk it up in the bar and never forget that the UK is where skiing started and where the real soul of skiing resides. The local foreigners in France/Austria/Bansko etc will be in total awe of you and your command of the English language (as they don't speak it wot like we can), give it to 'em.

You will also need to aquire a Trophy Wife, who wears a belted fartbag, HUGE BEJEWELLED sunglasses and make up that has been thoughtfully applied with a trowel; nails should be replaced with HUGE claws and her sole purpose of going on a ski holiday must be to sit and drink cappuccino at the bottom of the slope (oh, and shop)

Shimmy Alcott, how would I know it was really you?
Reminds me of one of my favourite Stephen Wright jokes...

You need a Chelsea tractor (bling SUV / 4x4), GB stickers (for GREAT BRITAIN), wide alloys wheels and performance summer tyres. Go faster driving gloves, a hat and a caravan complete the package.
