Is it a skirt? Is it a short? No, it’s a romper and a must-have closet staple for all your spring and summer plans in 2023.
The versatile one-piece can be worn to dressier events like warm-weather weddings (replacing your need for a wedding guest dress) or dressed down for the beach over a swimsuit. Plus, since the outfit has pants instead of a skirt, wear it as a hiking outfit outside without fear of a Marilyn Monroe moment.
It’s versatile enough to pair with comfy heels, strappy sandals and even white sneakers as shoes are the only thing a romper doesn’t have built-in. Then add a handbag and hit the streets.
There are a ton of rompers to choose from, too, ranging from fancy to casual, longs-sleeve to sleeveless and everything in between. We rounded up all of the above and more, making sure to offer up a range of prices and sizes, too. Read on for our 2023 picks and then get ready to romp all summer long.
