Little Miss Attila covers leotards and their effects on breasts and the impact it had on Halle Berry at the Golden Globe Awards. The subject matter matches the Awards show title. Excerpt:

The act of going to the bathroom became a process of many steps, especially because we usually had those stupid Danskin wraparound skirts over the leotards. This meant that one had to untie the skirt, hang it in the stall, and then pull the entire leotard - bodice included - down to one's thighs in order to pee.

And on that note I'll wrap things up because I need to go take care of something...
