Because I love you, I am putting this behind a cut.

Sometimes it's hard to be a Sammy Davis Jr. fan. What's the worst thing about this outfit? Is it the very fact of a fitted knit pantsuit in horizontal stripes? The skinny legs? The package? The giant collar? The shiny, shiny zipper? The suede vest, the long fringe, the big buttons? The hip wiggle (and lucky you that I still haven't figured out how to rip a movie clip off a DVD)?
Actually I think it's this. Singing with the cause of his own death in his hand. Oh Sammy.

the zipper makes it look like jammies.
i think the zipper is the second worst part.
You're right, it's the zipper. The full length shot showed that the pants flared below the knee, which made it look less like jammies. No less tragic though.
