The collar design of romper suits could vary substantially. Some romper suits were made with Peter Pan collars, although the collar was often not white. The Peter Pan collar was the most common collar for those suits with collars. On many play romper suits the collar was the same material as the suit.We have noted some rompers without any collar at all. The head opening was sometimes done rather as a square sailor-type cut. This was a common design for play suits. The romper suit the Texas boy here is wearing has this square opening. the suit here looks to be a play suit. There were also rounded cuts neck openings.
