When portraying a working-class person, a linen short gown is the appropriate choice. This less formal option offers room to move and is easily styled by folding the sleeves. To close the front use several straight pins and tuck or fold the front panel into a straight line for a custom-fitted look. A single breathable layer of linen makes this perfect for warm weather.
