I remember those Kays catalogues. Anyone have any cuttings of the pvc rainwear pages they can post here. Didn't Exchange & Mart have a section for rubber rainwear and underwear? Discovering Relate magazine was a revelation. They did a Rubber Handbook version one time with a yellow cover.... Search magazine had some mackintosh content I seem to recall. Then there was Shiny magazine and Dressing For Pleasure.

Then had a friend who wore a blue pvc mackintosh to school gorgeous look, all before I had a weekend job at 14 and bought my first pvc jacket from C&A
Mmm can't beat a lovely body wrap in plastic/ polythene head to toe

I seem to remember that the local newspaper always had photo's of various outdoor events, in the wetter months of the year they very often had images of women wearing cagoules and other shiny rainwear which for me were always a secret pleasure.

There are people on Flickr capturing old catalogues like Kays but there must be so many more out there to discover...
