pinafore / apron

Which is correct?

Before she started cooking, she put on the apron / pinafore.

I thought both are correct. What do you think?
  

Top answer

Americans, I believe, use apron here; pinafores, rarely worn, are usually for little girls and are simply used for style rather than for protection while cooking.
