The Robin Romper is a vintage inspired, long-sleeved baby romper perfect for the chilly winter months. Knit from the top down with raglan shaping, it is fitted through the bodice with extra ease from armhole down for a cozy fit. Full of charming details such as a keyhole closure in the back, a daisy stitch bodice reminiscent of old-fashioned smocking and a buttoned onesie flap, this romper is sure to show off those sweet chubby baby legs in the best way possible!
