Underdressed in Overalls.

I can understand how history has affected the way we dress today in MANY ways. Look at our modern day sandals; they are described as GLADIATOR shoes. Where did that term come from? Gladiators. High wasted skirts, where did those come from? The seventies and eighties created that style. One thing I’ve noticed evolving in the world are…rompers. The word ‘romper’ makes me think of a nine year old playing at the zoo. Second of all the romper seems to be overalls, turned into shorts, with fabric instead of denim. On top of THAT, people are wearing overalls, without actually working on a farm?? I understand if you have no clean pants…or shirts and decided to throw on anything you can find in your closet. But not ONE piece of material that covers up the whole shebang. Also, has anyone else noticed what a lot of these rompers do to woman? It looks like you have a wedgie from the waste up. In a way it seems like the look came from the whole “boy fit” shorts. As in, loose are baggie pants to put on. The craze was apparently passed on to overalls. Baggy pants with straps over your shoulders. Overalls should only be worn if you’re up to your waste in cow shit. Not loungin’ around your house or when you decide to go to the movies. There is literally NO point in these ‘onesies’. It makes me feel as if you had a house fire…but it was JUST in your closet and you just happened to fall asleep the night before wearing a one piece bathing suit that magically made you think it looked good to wear as a real-life outfit. THAT’S what these things are; it’s an oversized bathing suit, right? Honestly, you would be better off just taking scissors and cutting this man made modern overall in half. That way it would seem as if you’re just wearing matching shirt and pants. That brings me to think that rompers are almost like uniforms. Conforming to be wearing all one color, and no graphics or print will not help the situation out at all. I think you could almost wear your father’s XXL sweater and look better than rompin’ around in a romper.  It’s literally baby clothes, but for adults. Does that make sense? Someone decided to be lazy enough to make their shirt tuck around their legs and go out like that and creation of the romper was made. It’s like you might as well wear a dress! That’d be better than a dress with a crotch region. ANOTHER thing these uniforms remind me of is snow clothes. This is where wearing something that’s all connected makes sense. You wouldn’t want snow to get in your pants or shirt, so you create something waterproof and seamed form your neck to ankles. Snow can’t get inside your clothes when you’re in California…at least that’s what I thought.
