A romper featuring a gigantic image of Kim Jong-un's face is the latest sartorial trend to stir up men's fashion.

Described by one Twitter user as ‘the worst thing on the internet’ the romper features such an enlarged image of the North Korean dictator’s profile that his pores can be easily examined in frightening detail.

The bizarre onesie was unsurprisingly on sale for $79.99 – reduced from its original price of $99.99 - despite winning five star reviews on the website where it is advertised.

Cary Chow, a journalist with ESPN, posted the image of the unsettling romper on Twitter.

‘I did it! I found the worst thing on the internet. A combination of so much awful,’ Mr Chow wrote on Twitter.

GetOnFleek.com which sells the romper promises that it will not ‘crack, peel, or fade,’ a guarantee of quality which for once may not be welcomed.

‘Our Kim Jong Un Romper for men is the perfect all over print mens romper, made with premium double sided sublimation,’ the site proudly states.

And just in case Kim Jong Un does not float your romper boat, the site also features onesies emblazoned with pirates, giraffes and perhaps most bizarrely of all - fried chicken.

But this latest fashion affront is not the first time that hipsters have flocked to ‘ironically’ wear cloths weirdly displaying images of dictators.

High street retailer Urban Outfitters previously printed a t-shirt playing on the Hip Hop band N.W.A.'s name with the title D.W.A. – an acronym for Dictators With Attitude - featuring some of the most appalling despots the world has ever had the misfortune to know.

Adolf Hitler, Muammar Gaddafi, Idi Amin, Saddam Hussein and Kim Jong-II featured on that notorious t-shirt, and other terrifying faces from history like Joseph Stalin have also grimaced down from high street apparel.

Despite the intermittent appearance of despot heads on clothing, rompers - or onesies - will have more longevity if a group of students from Northwestern University have a say in it.

A Kickstarter campaign called RompHim started the dubious romper-for-guys craze last month and it proved hugely popular, quickly exceeding its funding goals in the US.

Rompers – a trend which has made its way into most female wardrobes – has been inching closer to the males' rails in recent weeks thanks in part to this RompHim campaign.

One of RompHim's founders, Northwestern University student Elaine Chen told GQ: ‘I personally love a romper for women, and we were looking for something different that didn't already exist for guys.'

She said that her partner in the project, Daniel Webster Clark 'was a little tired of wearing the same button down and pants so we got to talking about why we couldn't build a better product and make a romper available for men that's cool and fun and different and is a conversation starter at the end of the day.’
