Seems to me that Susan's version of a romper is different from what I remember. The one I saw pictured of the TSV looks more like a dress with shorts underneath. I always thought of a romper as more of a short jumpsuit.--there was no outer dress over the shorts.

No way, no way that sort of an article of clothing appeals to me. Never has, never will.

I remember the last romper she presented was really cute but not my idea of a romper.

I've always know rompers to be a one piece shorts. Her rompers are shorts, under a dress so they are more skorts in a dress. Drorts. {#emotions_dlg.laugh}

If you type Graver Romper in the search engine you will see.

I think it's called a "shress." I'm long in the torso, so just looking at this sort of thing is painful. Same thing with jumpsuits. I think it might look cute on some but isn't necessary for everyone.

If it was just the dress without the shorts underneath, I'd be more tempted. I really don't understand why I need shorts underneath though.

All in good fun...this picture comes to mind after reading your post

I'd rather show the matching shorts underneath than my unmentionables{#emotions_dlg.blush} Then again, this picture did make Marilyn quite famous{#emotions_dlg.confused1}Smile

I already have two of Susan Graver's rompers--and I LOVE them! They're very comfortable; they look like you're wearing a dress. I particularly like having the shorts underneath--so, for me, they're fabulous! Going to the bathroom is simply not a problem.....You simply pull them down. I'm honestly not sure why this bothers some people--but, as they say, to each his/her own.

Yes, I plan to purchase the TSV. Not sure which color yet.

Are the shorts separate or do you have to pull the entire dress down? that is what is a problem for me. That's why I don't like jumpsuits or one piece bathing suits.

The shorts are not separate. Yes, you have to pull the whole thing down. If that bothers you, then it doesn't sound like a romper is for you....Really doesn't bother me.

I already have the cap sleeve romper with the front pockets in pink and just love it!

I do not find it a problem at all using the bathroom, I was able to do it without having the garment touch the floor.

I have worn my pink romper twice now and each time got many compliments on how nice it was. Fit is great, and everything stays together. I like not having the top tucked in.

I have selected the cocoa brown one in the TSV coming up. I thought I could wear that color well into the fall then.

Can't wait to get it!!
