This is a natural kapok cooking apron. I wore it once and it didn't suit me, so I washed it and stored it in a drawer. I purchased it about two years ago, so there is some slight yellowing due to aging. I've only worn it once, so there's no pilling. However, please refrain from purchasing if you are a perfectionist. The silhouette is lovely, and I wanted to use it, but I'm sadly letting it go. I hope it can go to someone who will use it beautifully.
