Rompers

Post by Diana Michelle »

As I said in my other post went shopping with some friends. I was surprised to see rompers displayed prominently. I loved them back in the late 80s and early 90s when they were in style and had a few back then. I did end up getting one but have yet to wear it.

My question is what do all of you think of rompers?

I have never tried a romper. My wife's view of a romper is that you have to get undressed to go to the bathroom. #-o I am interested in other's thoughts.

I'm with Kim and her better half -- too much work. As for the fashion, it depends on the length and fit of course. My legs only look good just so high up and the romper would still need to cover the icky parts. I've seen way too many wide legs too short that you might as well be in a micromini. The built in waist doesn't seem to be quite the issue it used to be, seeing them run the gambit from just under the boobs to just above the hips. That said, some of us longer fatter girls probably simply want the waist associated with a crotch that's not cutting us in two. SSSSSoooo rompers are fine, but probably not for me.

"I bet you can rock them" Sounds like Kim has a secret crush :lol:

Never had a romper but I do have a couple of jumpsuits and yes they can be a pain in the tush in the powder room someone likes how I look in them so I wear them.

Tried them, didn't work out.

My body was too long, which pulled it tight into the nether regions. This in turn made it hard to get my arms/shoulders into it.

Then, ..OO.. I was stuck, temporarily. A turn on, maybe, but a nightmare to get off, which would make it worse if needing the toilet.

I like the romper look, but don't currently have any.

I did have one years ago but it was a little too small. Maybe it's time to get one again. My youngest daughter has a few and she looks great in them, but she looks great in everything. That's the advantage of being 17 instead of 53!

I like wearing them sometimes, I have one that I wear for cleaning house, but in general I will not buy them.
Well, we all have a face
That we hide away forever
And we take them out
And show ourselves when everyone has gone
