Boys Christening Rompers
- Rompers appeared in the United States of America in the early 1900s. They were very popular as play wear for younger children because people thought they were ideal for movement. Rompers were in many ways the first modern casual clothes for children. They were light and loose fitting, a major change from the much more restrictive clothing children wore during the 19th Century Victorian era.
- Styles and conventions varied from country to country. In France they were for many years only for boys. While primarily a play garment, we note French children wearing dressy rompers. Their popularity peaked in the 1950s when they were used by children as play wear and by women as leisure- and beachwear. Thereafter the garment has continued to be used by infants and toddlers; however, it has become less common among older girls and women, although never disappearing entirely.
- Rompers when worn for a Christening or Baptism offer freedom of movement for a little boy while providing the simplicity and elegance the ceremony requires.
