morning suit

sváteční oblek, obvykle šedý nebo černý, nosí se s cylindrem

Stiff, but at least there's no bridal gown, going-away dress or morning suit to buy. BNCB

I climbed out of my hired morning suit, mused lingeringly on everything I'd experienced that eventful day… and fell fast asleep. BNCB

He was dressed in a Victorian morning suit, high starched collar, watered-silk cravat. BNCB

padded jacket

teplá bunda, vatovaný kabátek

On top of the thin dress she wore a brightly coloured, predominantly red, Chinese padded jacket; it seemed to sparkle in the room's dim lights. BNCB

When last seen he was wearing blue jeans, a cream sweatshirt, blue padded jacket and black shoes. BNCB

As Jelka watched, the men subdued her, forcing her into a padded jacket, the over-long arms of which they fastened at the back. BNCB

man-made fibres

umělá vlákna

Synthetics are man made fibres ranging from simple nylons to very complex micro fibre materials intricately woven together. BNCB

Considerable work has also been undertaken to develop new blends using wool and experimenting with new man- made fibres and dyestuffs. BNCB

Man-made fibres and plastic sheeting have long since replaced the porous cambric or fine cotton linen which had been the standard material for sails over seven decades. BNCB

bathing suit

dámské plavky

A tall, well-built girl in a star-spangled bathing suit knelt by Miss Liberty, and picked up the coronet. BNCB

Emmie ran across the fields to the pits, towel and bathing suit flapping from her arm. BNCB 

She was looking very pretty in her bathing suit, her hair still damp from swimming. BNCB

old-fashioned

staromódní

She led him straight into an old-fashioned kitchen where a coal range gave out a dull red glow. BNCB

I was not from a religious background, and I had previously thought that anyone who went to the mikva had to wear ghastly old-fashioned dresses with thick tights and live in a Yiddish-speaking ghetto! BNCB

It's a telling detail, this appreciation of cafes, and one which (with his turn-of-the-century clothes and his clipped Viennese psychiatrist accent) hints that Daniel Barenboim is a thoroughly modern maestro with a thoroughly old-fashioned sensibility. BNCB

pocket watch

kapesní hodinky

 For the average distance runner fat is about as much use as a pocket watch. BNCB

There you are the silver engraved silver pocket watch, a nice little pendant watch, and we'll have it again now. BNCB

The jewellery pictured includes a silver pocket watch, a pearl brooch, a silver pendant and several tie or stick pins. BNCB

platform shoes

boty se silnou podrážkou

We all wear mutated versions of the school uniform and platform shoes. BNCB

Flares feature highly in the line up, as do dizzy platform shoes that defy gravity. BNCB

 More resembling the changing rooms at MGM, these have previously included gilded platform shoes and chain-mail tunics that attract a growing number of magazine stylists and video makers. BNCB

pleated skirt

skládaná sukně

A flared cream pleated skirt that complimented those long perfect brown legs, and a powder blue tee shirt that matched her eyes a treat. BNCB

Where to hang the steaming kit for a shadow pleated skirt is always quite a problem. BNCB

She wore a white tennis outfit consisting of a blouse and a short pleated skirt. BNCB

patent shoes

lakýrky

They run the Gondola in the summer months too, which provides an additional worry that groups of sweet little old ladies in overcoats, support tights and patent shoes, could find themselves wandering aimlessly on top of a mountain over 4,000 feet high, without any concept of the dangers. BNCB

He held up a pair of shiny black patent shoes. BNCB

He stared at her black patent shoes, those twin vices crushing her toes, telling her to take her feet away. BNCB

patent leather

laková kůže

Marion looked down at her low-heeled patent leather pumps and sighed. BNCB

Footsteps, then the door opened: a man, fortyish, glasses, slim, dark, meticulously groomed; tailored slacks, a silk shirt open at the neck and patent leather house shoes. BNCB

When found, she was wearing a pink floral dress, lilac tights, a white cardigan and black patent leather shoes. BNCB

patched jeans

zalátané džíny

True, some of the filling-in was performed by a young guitarist in patched jeans, whose contribution was generously acknowledged, but Pete has no trouble playing the guitar. BNCB

One of the men, bearded, with roughly patched jeans and a loud laugh, leaned on the back of Rain's chair, his head close to hers, and talked to Oliver as though she were not there. BNCB

He was wearing patched jeans and a dark brown jacket tied with string. BNCB

sexy underwear

svůdné, dráždivé spodní prádlo

Sexy underwear's got nothing on thermal britches and vests when it comes to keeping you cosy in the depths of winter. BNCB

Now the cartoon Princess stops at the point where she is clad in sexy underwear, instead of stripping down further to the G-string. BNCB

THE ROMANTIC: They may please Barbara Cartland, but the true romantic scorns heart shaped chocolates, Chanel No. 5, sexy underwear and other fashionable cliches of romance. BNCB

running shorts

kraťasy na běhání

She had a sports bag to put all her things in: her swimming gear, her running shorts and her riding things. BNCB

 Prague was the last stadium where I wore conventional running shorts. BNCB

She was in her warmup kit of white tank top, running shorts, red legwarmers, and basketball shoes. BNCB

safety boots

holínky

They reckoned that my extra weight had protected my heart, and I was also wearing heavy, rubber-soled safety boots. BNCB

All men on site will be required to wear hard hats and safety boots at all times within the designated areas. BNCB

While some made their way to the more traditional setting of the cafe by choice, two of them in denim overalls and safety boots set about the polishing, cleaning and oiling of duty loco, Maid Marian. BNCB

safety helmet

ochranná přilba

The safety helmet was another of his discoveries, his good ideas. BNCB

He thrust into her hands a blue plastic safety helmet with a transparent visor. BNCB

At the first change over it's off with the shoes and on with the safety helmet. BNCB
