Kids New York - February 25, 2008

Romper Room

Kit+Lili Rompers

When it comes to dressing the kidlets, form (while boring) must follow function.

But when you’re ready to throw a little fun into the mix, try Kit+Lili rompers, practical onesies with bright geometric patterns inspired by Scandinavian textiles and natural forms like ocean waves and owls.

The collection is available in sizes 0-3 months, 3-6 months, and 6-12 months. Which means they’ll be dressed in seconds — and still look like budding fashion plates.

Talk about finding your purpose.

Available at Kirna Zabête, 96 Greene Street, between Prince and Spring Streets (212-941-9656); online at kitlili.com.
