Re: What was it called?
I recall my gran (born 1880s) called her pinafore overall a 'brat'.
I have never heard it called that since she did, but it was a use of that word.
Brat Brat (brăt) noun [ Middle English bratt coarse garnment, Anglo-Saxon bratt cloak, from the Celtic; confer W. brat clout, rag, Gael. brat cloak, apron, rag, Ir. brat cloak; properly then, a child's bib or clout; hence, a child.] 1. A coarse garment or cloak; also, coarse clothing, in general
