In eariler times an apron belonged excluslvely to the wardrobe of a married woman, girls were not allowed to wear it. When a girl was observed to be with a child she immediately had to put on an apron.A married woman never dared go to the village or to church or even leave her own home without an apron. The biggest fear was that a married woman without an apron could deprive a field of fertillity. Even while harvesting the crop in summertime she still had to wear an apron. One corner of an apron was tucked to the waistband so the garment did not get in the way. An early 20th century record notes that 'even  today a woman will not go ploughing or harvesting without her apron.'

The skirt had improved a lot since the early days. The primary material used in women’s handicrafts is wool. To produce very high quality yarn, every house breeds its own sheep. The women themselves do all the work from shaving the sheep to twining and dyeing the yarn. Wool is the ideal material, especially in harsh winters when heavy snowstorms make life on the islands very hard. Over time, the colours and patterns have undergone slight changes, but the costumes have preserved the general style and original purpose. The striped skirt came into use in the second half of the 19th century, replacing earlier single colour white, grey, black or blue ones, and turned gradually more colourful with the introduction of industrially produced dyestuff. The pattern of stripes and the colours vary according to the age and status of the woman, or depend on the occasion. Children, young girls and women wear skirts where bright red colour prevails. Elderly women generally wear a more modest blue skirt and middle-aged women wear partially red skirts (with one or two wide blue stripes). Black skirt indicates mourning and it is worn after the death of a very close relative. Married women wear an apron infront of the skirt.
To this day, this skirt is an everyday item.

Peasant shoes belong to Estonian national clothing style, worn for centuries by both, men and women. The shoes are mostly made of town leather or chrome leather, which is very soft and easy to work with.  It is very important to take a good care of the shoes, as the leather is not that strong.  The laces are braided of six linen ribbons and are tied up above the calf.
Nowadays, peasant shoes are worn with Estonian national clothes, however, back in the day they were worn daily, with any type of clothing. That was just from where Estonian clothing styles began to develop.
