Body Art Girl With A Dirndl Oktoberfest Dress
|
A dirndl skirt (sometimes spelled dirndle) generally describes a light circular cut dress, gathered at the waist, that falls below the knee.
Description
The dirndl consists of a bodice, blouse, full skirt and apron. While appearing to be simple and plain, a properly made modern dirndl may be quite expensive as it is tailored and sometimes cut from costly hand-printed or silk fabrics. In the South German dialects (Bairisch), Dirndl originally referred to a young woman or a girl, and Dirndlgewand to the dress. Nowadays, Dirndl may equally refer to either a young woman or to the dress.
