Danity Aprons

Here are two new aprons to the collection. Both are white. One a picked up at an antique store and I think is late 20s early 30s.
Defiantly a "hostess" apron. Tea anyone?
An advertisement for a similar apron from the early 30s.
A closer look at the lovely detail.
  My Grandma gave this one to me. I am not sure if it is a costume apron or really old, I think really old. The fabric is beautiful! So soft and the stripes are actually woven it. It looks like it was handmade by a very good seamstress.
