    The Aria Apron Dress is one of the pieces we are asked about most, and it returns for Pre-Fall in Sunday Stripe, our fine black and ecru ticking woven in Irish linen.

    It is built on the idea of a working apron: a clean bib front, a soft tie that wraps and gathers at the waist, and a full skirt that falls easily to the ankle. The shape is deceptively simple and does most of the work for you.

    Worn alone it is quiet and strong. Layered over the Willow Blouse in Rosehip, the collar peeking above the bib, it becomes something else entirely. This is a dress that changes with whatever you put beneath it.

    The model is 5'8 and wearing a size S/M.

    • Woven in our Sunday Stripe Irish linen, a fine black and ecru ticking stripe
    • Apron silhouette with a clean bib front
    • Self-fabric tie that wraps and gathers at the waist
    • Full gathered skirt, midi to ankle length
    • Sleeveless, designed to be layered
    • Wear alone, or over the Willow Blouse or Tillie Top
    • Easy pull-over style
    • Designed and made in Ireland
    • Made from 100% Irish linen

    When taken care of correctly, your linen piece can actually get better with age - It is one of many things that makes it such a sustainable fabric!

    Washing Instructions:  Hand wash or machine wash at 30 degrees Celsius, alone or with similar colours. Air dry and follow with a warm iron if preferred. Never tumble dry.

    General Care Tips: 

    Avoid Overexposure to Sunlight:  Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause linen to fade over time. Store your linen garments away from direct sunlight when not in use.

    Gentle Handling:  Linen is a delicate fabric. When washing or drying, handle with care to avoid stretching or damaging the fibres.

    Storage:  Store your linen clothing in a cool, dry place. Avoid hanging on sharp hooks to prevent snagging; instead, use padded hangers or fold neatly to maintain shape.

    Our made to order pieces have a production time of 3-4 weeks.

    Ready to ship items will be shipped within 1-2 working days.

    Delivery is £6, and free on orders over £250.

    The cloth

    Sunday Stripe.
    A ticking stripe, softened.

    A fine black and ecru ticking, woven for us in Irish linen.

    Ticking was once the cloth of mattresses and work shirts: hard-wearing, plain-spoken, never meant to be looked at. We liked it for exactly that reason. Sunday Stripe carries the quiet formality of an old work shirt and the softness of something already worn in.

    It runs through the whole of The Gathering Season, so the pieces can be worn together for the full stripe, or apart with something plain.

    One pair of hands,
    start to finish.

    Every piece is cut and sewn in Belfast by one of our sewists, who sees it through from the first cut to the last stitch.

    We keep our making close to home on purpose. Belfast was once the linen capital of the world, and the skills that built it are rare now. Making here is how we keep them alive.
