There are various types of smocks. For example, the "Farmer's Smock," worn by peasants in 19th-century England, is a traditional garment made of medium to thick linen or cotton fabric, with smocking embroidery on the chest and sleeves. The "French Smock," used as workwear by French peasants and shepherds, is made of thin to medium-thick fabric with pleats and gathers, giving it a unique texture. Other types include the "Smock Dress," a one-piece dress with smocking embroidery on the chest and sleeves, and the "Artist's Smock," used by painters and potters, characterized by its soft, thin fabric, roomy sleeves, and longer length. As you can see, smocks come in a wide variety of styles depending on their thickness and intended use. This product is a "French Smock" that was actually worn by French peasants and shepherds. The thick linen fabric used is so durable that it cannot be pierced even with a fork, making it safe to wear as everyday clothing. While thin smocks are traded at relatively low prices, they require careful handling during washing due to their delicate fabric, and can be easily scratched and prone to staining, making them difficult to care for. This particular garment, on the other hand, has fewer such concerns, allowing you to wear it casually and cherish it for a long time without worrying about scratches or stains. Furthermore, if you decide to part with it after many years of use, the durable fabric ensures that its quality will not deteriorate, allowing you to pass it on while retaining its value. It is in very good condition. Please check the detailed images of the product's condition.
