Cook's Outfit for Beaconsfield House

     We've been working on a couple of Cook's Outfits for one of the vignettes they will be doing at historic Beaconsfield House in Charlottetown this summer.  The outfit includes a blouse, skirt and two aprons.  We will be doing a fitting early next week.

     This white apron would be worn when serving in the Dining Room and at formal occasions.

     The darker, stripped apron would be worn in the Kitchen when the Cook is doing heavier and messier jobs.
