In the second picture, is that another brooch in the center front, do
you think?  If the fabric was pinned together there, it would be tight
around the chest so the tortoise brooches  might hold the pleats more
easily?

Interestingly, that formation is almost exactly like I was shown to make
a hangarock (18 years ago for a friend's wedding, so I don't know where
the research came from), except backwards.  It was a tube with a big box
pleat in the centre back, sewn down along the top edge.  I had such a
small bust, and such a long stride, that the pleat went all the way
round to under my arms!  But certainly putting it in front would allow
for pregnancy.



Yes, the inset picture does seem to show a third brooch in the center.  So far 
as I know, no such brooch was found in the grave, but we don't have full data 
on the find.  It does show a narrow apron worn in front and positioned 
between the tortoise brooches, which I'm skeptical about, since that approach 
would also hide the silk trim on the apron dress.


  
I had interpreted it as the centre section of the apron dress, with a 
big pleat under each brooch making that part stand out in front, rather 
than an additional separate piece of fabric.  If the pleat is big enough 
that the fabric underneath meets at the centre front, then a brooch at 
the centre could hold all those layers together.  But it does seem odd 
to indicate an extra brooch unless there was some evidence.

There are any number of ways in which a sewn pleat/s could be incorporated 
into an apron dress.  The only one that I know has been documented by a find 
is this one, which was found in Denmark and is the subject of a 
reconstruction model in the Danish National Museum.  There's a photo of the 
reconstruction about 2/3 of the way down on this page on the right:

Oooh me too!  I sincerely believe that aprons were worn in the way depicted, 
but in this case it wouldn't even lie neat and flat with the sagging overdress 
underneath it.  The silk on linen is fairly stiff and would not just lie 
crumpled flat.  Gytha

Peter Beatson also interpreted the drawing as showing a separate apron.  But 
I've looked at the drawing again and you could well be right; it is ambiguous 
and could just be a large pleat created by pinning part of the excess fabric 
through the brooches.  

I really, really want to see the full write up in NESAT X.

I like your thought about how the third brooch might work.  I'm wondering if 
the absence of the third brooch might be explained by the fact that this dress 
was not being worn, it was found in a box.   Gytha
