Women's Apron and Bonnet Set - Regular or PLUS size - Victorian, 19th Century, Prairie
Our two piece accessory set includes a simple pinner(bib) apron with a large patch pocket. The apron is gathered into the waistband and has long ties for a nice bow in the back. The bib and pocket are trimmed with a band of eyelet as well as the lower edge of the apron. A set of period correct safety pins called "fibulas" are included. Our poke bonnet features eyelet lace around the brim and an adjustable back so that it will fit most head sizes. The brim is filled and quilted with a felt insert, so that it will stay stiff and not droop in the rain. The back of the bonnet has a curtain to protect the neck from sunburn. The apron and bonnet are made from 100% white cotton muslin so they can be machine washed and bleached if necessary. Properly taken care of, these items should provide you with many years of use.
PLUS sized apron skirt has an overall width of 65 inches which is gathered down to 30 inches at the waistband to accommodate the larger waistlines and provide adequate skirt coverage.
These accessories are suitable for living history reenactors from 1840 and forward, as well as Dicken's Fairs, wagon trains, pioneer days and other historical themed events.
If you would prefer a colored set or a cream patterned fabric, just let us know. We can make them to suit your individual tastes and needs. I also can complement an existing outfit if you send a picture of the fabric. Save $5 when you buy them as a set. Don't need both pieces we offer the items separately.
The set is shown over a simple dress which is NOT INCLUDED.
