Printed Apron - Francis Open

This printed cotton apron features a distinctively shaped bib, and reflects a bridge between functionality and personal flair for the wearer. The printed cotton fabric acts as an attainable level of fancy for the working class or lower middle class. This is inspired by extant originals, as well as period portraiture and fashion plates. The bib pins to the front of the gown while the lower portion ties around the waist.
