That dress seems to me to smack of Little House on the Prairie. In my own mind, Heidi wears dirndls--maybe my childhood Heidi book dressed Heidi that way?

You're right. Austrian, German, and Swiss peasants could wear dresses that look like dirndls. Folkwear (folkwear.com) has a pattern (#123) so you can see what they look like.
