Romper, sleepsuit, or set? Find out which is the best option for your baby
When a new member joins the family, everything revolves around their well-being... and their comfort too! One of the first questions that arises when preparing their clothes is: Which of these items is most appropriate for each occasion: a romper, a sleepsuit, or a set?
Although they may seem very similar, each garment has its advantages depending on the time of day, the season, or the child's age.
In this article, we explain in simple terms the differences between these three key pieces in a children's wardrobe, so you know which one to choose for each occasion.
What is a sleepsuit and when to wear it?
A baby sleepsuit is a one-piece garment, usually with feet included, that completely covers the baby. It's a very practical option, as they usually have snap buttons in the front or back and at the crotch , making diaper changes much easier, especially at night or when we're out and about.
Advantages of the romper:
- Makes diaper changes easier.
- It keeps you warm without the need for several layers.
- Ideal for sleeping or being at home during the day.
What is a romper and why is it so versatile?
The baby romper is a garment characterized by its straps , which can be worn with or without a shirt or bodysuit underneath and leaves the baby's legs uncovered. It has a flirty and fresh look and is ideal for the warmer months.
Advantages of the romper:
- Fresh and comfortable for hot days.
- Allows freedom of movement.
- Perfect for creating adorable looks with other basic garments.
A tip? Pair patterned rompers with plain bodysuits to create charming, easy-to-change outfits.
What does a baby set include?
Baby outfits are usually made up of two pieces : a t-shirt or blouse and bloomers or panties... The possibilities are endless!
Advantages of the set:
- It allows you to play with combinations and styles.
- Ideal for dressing baby for going out.
- You can reuse the parts separately.
Sleepsuits are perfect for naps, nights, or days at home, providing warmth and comfort without the hassle. Rompers become the go-to item when the warmer weather arrives, offering freshness and freedom of movement for playing, crawling, or taking their first steps. And sets are a safe bet for outings, visits, or special moments without sacrificing comfort.
Every garment has its perfect moment, and it's best to have a variety of rompers, sleepsuits, and sets to suit the weather, the baby's age, and even the little things in between.
