    I used to wear them when I was 8. They look like little girls' clothes to me.

    I think they are adorable, especially with tights and some docs, but have yet to find one that I like on me....SIGH

    I actually really like them. And they look really good on alot of body types. Alot of women think they cant wear them, so they don't. Find one you like and try it on! You never know what could happen!

    I like them for summer. I have a few in my closet. I think you just have to try one on and see if you like it on your body.

    They are cute on me but I am fairly tall and thin. I have seen short and slightly overweight people in them and they aren't rocking them. :-(

    They're adorable! We used to wear them in the 80's. They are a real challenge in the ladies room though. :embarassed:

    very cute however they make my butt look HUGE I've also only seen girls my size wearing them which means in all honestly they look terrible on them. They end up being too short and gives them saggy boobs because they believe strapless clothing means no bra.

    just my opinion =] HOWEVER I believe you could pull one off though.

    Well you live in Iowa. It's not exactly the fashion capitol of the midwest...

    I wear them. I see t hem frequently being worn about town. They were popular in SF, LA, Seattle, and Boston so far that I've seen this summer and last. Dunno about other places though.

    I have a couple of them. They are really comforatble and look really cute on. You should try one on because they look better on a person than they do on a hanger. They are really popular here in Los Angeles (cuz it warm most of the year)

    I own two, but don't wear them often because I'm 5'11'' tall and it makes me looks slutty lol! but I totally dig the look, maybe if I shed a couple more lbs. I can pull it off! lol!

    I LOVE them :) I have about four! I know a lot of people have claimed that they're unflattering, but personally I've never had that problem - could go for drop-waisted ones, perhaps?

    I am guilty of wearing a romper, and I am not tall or thin.

    I got mine at Forever 21 on sale and every time I wear it, I get a lot of compliments. I say go for it!!! If you're in the right climate, do it! :D

    Heh well we don't all just wear overalls and boots xD

    I am in seattle often and have noticed a few girls there. Problem is im not too observant.

    I am not a huge fan, but if anyone could rock one, it'd be you (someone young, thin and spunky).

    You know what I mean though. There are certain things you can wear on the city streets in NY, but you'd stick out like a sore thumb doing so in other places. At any rate, rompers are pretty tame

    My advice is to pay attention to fit. They are one piece, so this is a greater challenge. Cinch the waist with a belt or take it to a tailor for sure.

    Oh yea I was just giving you a hard time :] I spend most of the summer in seattle anyway so i shouldn't stick out :] Not too much in a college town either luckily :]

    Thanks for the tip! The one i tried on made me look like I had a big belly even though it was relatively flat
