Question for:

About three-quarters of the way through Sheb Wooley's 1958 novelty song "Purple People Eater" (which reached #1 on the Billboard charts), a two-word piece of clothing is mentioned that is a reference to another hit from that year, which reached #2 on the US R&B Chart and #3 on the U.S. pop chart. What is that specific piece of clothing (two words)?
