19th-century French Indigo Smock (#S-05) Portrait Paintings LandscapesIncluded among John Derian's trove of vintage and antique goods are 19th century French indigo smocks. Often worn by by rural workers across France in the 1800s, these loose fitting cotton garments feature long sleeves, a simple collar, and front buttons and pockets. Dyed deep indigo to hide wear and stains, it protected everyday clothing during farm work, markets, and artisan labor. See our entire collection of antique clothing and accessories here.
