Re: Dress
That is unusual for a pinafore/overall dress being long and pleated. A matter of searching:

on eBay you can craft quite a detailed search with colour, size, length, style, material, etc, etc. and them get email if something new is listed.

Re: Dress
I think we're up against American vs English here.
I'm east of the Atlantic pond and would call that garment a pinafore dress, whereas I gather that west of the pond it is known as a jumper.

Re: Dress
Though not common, I’ve also seen such a thing referred to as a “skirtall”, a take on “overalls” or “overall dress”.
This company has a few variations on the pinafore:

Though neither are quite like the example posted.

Re: Dress
I'd go for it regardless of what it is called.
I just wouldn't do the bare torso look.
Could wear a jumper with the jumper in that case.
What we might call a pullover with a pinafore in other words.

Re: Dress
The "pinafore" has always been a standard option for school uniform in the UK but, as we know, choices like this are only available to girls.
Sorry, boys. Your choice is.... trousers... that's it.

Re: Dress
I stumbled across a website some time ago, and it was aimed at people wanting traditional look, "modest" clothing. Sort of midwest farm look? I think they had stuff like this. Can't find it now, does it ring any bells with anyone?
EDIT: Found this, don't think it the same thing, but might do.

Re: Dress
"Pinafore" was the way I learnt it when I was little, and so it is the way I say it here in Yankeeland as well. In addition to "jumper dress", you might also try "tank dress".
There are a number of Mennonite families in my area, and I have always admired their modest dresses. As a child of the 50's I never could get used to cleavage-baring outfits; I still dress like my mother did.
I own several tank dresses such as this one from Amazon Essentials, mostly worn during the summer when it's too hot for sleeves. But I recently bought a couple of turtleneckjumpers I mean sweaters! to wear under the tank dress, and I'm quite pleased with the results.

Re: Dress
I love dresses, and when it is a bit cold outside, I wear a matching knitted sweater on it.
Be proud to wear a skirt or dress, they are just clothes. Yes , they are for men too

Could this be the site that you were looking for?

Hope the link works, but I am sure that many who like skirts on
the shorter side will find the styles a bit stuffy.

Re: Dress
I actually contacted the designer yesterday. He is in Brazil. I have not heard back from him yet. I appreciate the link, but did not find anything close to the design I am looking for.PatJ wrote: ↑Tue Jan 26, 2021 10:15 pm Could this be the site that you were looking for?

Re: Dress
I Know Article whatever from the American Constitution enshrines the right to 'bare arms'....in that case weight-lifter's arms.
Better with a bodycon outfit, to my mind, but I suppose that dress has pockets, which has to be a good thing.
