Start the day comfortable and cool with the Elsie dungarees!
Elsie has everything you’re looking for in dungarees: topstitched pockets on the front and back, loose trouser legs that you can roll up for a casual look and a back piece with diamond shape where the shoulder straps are attached. The dungarees are closed with 3 (jeans) buttons at both sides. Use a middle-weight cotton, linen, denim or corduroy for Elsie and create a different look when using a plain fabric versus a striped jeans like we did!
