Whether you’re building fires, cooking dinner, or scavenging for supplies, you might want to keep your costume clean. An apron is a perfect (and period!) solution to this. Aprons have been worn across many times and places, by both men and women to protect clothing during household tasks and daily labour. As well as serving to protect clothing, they have a million other uses, from a makeshift basket, to a potholder, they always come in handy. Linen was the most common choice for aprons, valued for its durability and ease of cleaning. Following the introduction of cotton to Europe, cotton aprons became more common over time, but natural or bleached linen remained a timeless classic. This Medieval Apron is inspired by the practical attire of peasant women in 14th-15th century Europe. Made from a high-quality blend of 87% cotton and 13% flax at 180 GSM (grams per square meter, indicating fabric weight), this apron is perfect for reenactments, LARP, SCA, and living history events. The design of the apron is a rectangle gathered into a pleated waistband, with ties. The apron is machine sewn. The top edge of the apron is encased in the apron band and top stitched, and the other three edges have a double-fold hem. This creates a sturdy apron which is fit for practical use. With a one-size-fits-most design, this apron is versatile and fits comfortably over a variety of period garments, adding an authentic finishing touch to any medieval peasant or commoner portrayal.
