And when I can remember my mother wearing something similar, I really don't want to wear it.... but oddly enough, retro hosehold items (and furnishings) are fine (maybe they are comforting?)

Call me very old-fashioned but I would prefer young women dressed like that compared to what can be seen on a night out. The young and not-so young could do with a tabard and a pair of trousers over what they go out in these days. Oh and yes I did have a couple of tabards and flared trousers as well as the ones that looked like a box around your legs. I did my first patchwork round about the time that picture was publish I think. Late sixties early seventies? I'm glad I'm not young now! I can dress like I want
