I think it said that they make their own drawers. To me, it gave the impression that they could express themselves with the drawers as they wouldn't be seen. I could be wrong, but it makes me smile to think someone has a pair of drawers on under those skirts made out of some crazy quilting fabric covered with lobsters or something.

If I was to be a ATM and I had a choice to look like the others or really be different within the rules I would go for the latter. Though they really should consider something besides polyester, like cotton, especially for the drawers.
