"The Girl in the White Pinafore" is a short dramatic piece (often staged as a one-act play or dramatic monologue) attributed in some theatre circles to early-to-mid 20th century repertory, though authorship and specific provenance vary by production history. It centers on a young woman characterized by her white pinafore, using that costume element as a focal symbol for innocence, social expectations, or domestic constraint—depending on the adaptation.
