Viking Overdress, Tinna Pinafore Dress, Various Colors 1280022660

Apron dresses were an integral part of the Viking costume. Basically, these overdresses were characterized by their straps and simple tubular shape. Such clothing was provided with slits, with so-called geren (fabric wedges) with pleats and as variants overlapping in the center of the front. The hem ended at the height of the calves.

The Viking Age apron dress (also known as apron skirt, hanging skirt or smokkr ) had two different functions. While the simple variant was worn as an apron to protect the clothing, the decorated variant was more of a status symbol and was provided with borders, embroidery, chains and plate clasps. This form of dress is historically documented by finds from Haithabu and depictions from Birka. - Available sizes: S / M, L / XL, XXL - Color: green (also available: wine red, mustard yellow) - Material: 100% cotton

Our plain slip dress is made from sturdy canvas (100% cotton) and is therefore very robust. It has a loose fit, ties at the side and is kept simple.

The apron dress should be combined with a subtle slip and a belt. With the right accessories, you get a harmonious Nordic costume for a maid or a shieldmaid.
