How to Best Wear a Pinafore Style Dress

A pinafore style dress is a classic that goes in and out of vogue. In Britain the apron style dress typically is called a pinafore dress, and in the United States it is called a jumper. The dress style is known for its versatility and comfort and is often the style of dress chosen as a uniform for private schools in both Britain and the U.S.
