one of those cotton, flimsy all-in-one outfits for women which has the loose trouser part and sleeveless top part attached?
I have dismissed 'trouser suit'. It's not that. ;;)

The short, culotte type are called play suits.
It could be either a jump suit or play suit (or they could be one and the same)
I wouldn't wear one now - you can't get them off quickly when you need a pee!
Thanks, all!
heather, that made me laugh!
I guess your thingy would be a jumpsuit, playsuit, catsuit Nell - maybe there's a new name these days
I needed something that was difficult to take off in a hurry. When I say 'I', what I actually mean is that my character needed to be in that situation.
*thinks she's got away with it*
Anyway, the story's been whisked off into the ether now and the jumpsuit played its part perfectly.
I think jumpsuit is right, not I think about it.
I believe they were named after the all-in-one outfits parachutists wore when they jumped out of planes.
