union suit

Full-body knit undergarment

A union suit is a one-piece undergarment covering the torso and legs, typically with a buttoned front and a rear flap for using the toilet.

Popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as long underwear, it's now mostly seen in period films or as old-fashioned sleepwear: He answered the door in his union suit.
