No More Peek-A-Boo Hospital Gowns

A new hospital gown unveiled in Britain eliminates the embarrassing possibility of baring your buttocks. The new gown snaps down the side so it doesn’t pop open at the worst possible moment. Another gown has a pouch for a cell phone and comes with a fleece blanket. The designer says hospital patients “are at their very lowest ebb” and a better gown could help them feel more confident. The Labor government has promised to get the designs in hospitals across England next year if it wins a national election this spring.
