A person wearing any maid uniform.
The actual job consists of cleaning houses, but use this tag even if a character is just wearing the costume. If a character that is not usually portrayed with a maid uniform is drawn with one, also add the enmaided tag.
The iconic French maid style consists of a black frilled dress with an often frilled, white waist apron. An English uniform has an ankle-length or mid-calf length dark-colored dress with a pinafore apron. Also look for a maid headdress and maid apron.
