The gold skirt is part of the gown--see the matching bodice. The green is an apron. This doesn't seem to be a purely functional boring old apron, which is only decorated by spills. It is decorated with a strip of trimming down the center front and along the bottom hem. The base of the apron is further trimmed with fringe or tufting.
