Sleeveless Buckle Strap Romper

A romper solves the getting dressed problem in a single move, and this one is built for the days when you want that solved quickly. The straps fasten with buckles, so you set the fit at the shoulder rather than accepting whatever the maker decided. It has pockets, which should not be remarkable and somehow still is. Sleeveless and relaxed through the body, it is a warm weather piece that does not fuss.

The fabric is 65% rayon with 30% polyester and 5% spandex. Rayon is what gives it that soft fluid handle rather than the flat stiffness of a pure synthetic, and the small amount of spandex keeps it comfortable. It runs generous through the middle: the waist measures 39.4 inches in a small and opens to 49.6 inches in a 2XL, which is roomier than the bust at every size, so this is a relaxed blousy shape rather than a fitted one. Top length runs 30.7 inches through to 32.3 inches.

Five colourways cover a lot of ground: blue, black, army green, burgundy and navy. Flat sandals and a tote make it a daytime piece, while a heeled sandal and gold jewellery lift it for an evening. A denim jacket or a light knit over the top works when it cools, and adjusting the buckles is the fastest way to change how it sits. Sizes run S through 2XL.
