Well, in essence it's a period costume that has many contemporary variations on the original theme. A serving wench is a woman or girl that serves in a tavern, bar or Pub. She is and will always be the center of attention in the bar because of the essential role she plays, she either dispenses drinks or is a listening ear to patron's stories.
A tavern wench is a popular character in many soap opera's, situation characters and other TV series, especially British soap operas. She is often perceived as shallow or even dumb, because of the way she dresses but in most cases she is dumbing herself down to fit in with the perceptions of the patrons. In truth, she has many schemes going on and is usually a few steps ahead of all the other characters that inhabit the pub.
A tavern wench from olden times might wear a peasant top with a bustier or corset on top. She will be attired in an ankle length skirt. She could also don a cloth cap or bonnet. Her costume highlights her ample figure which is used to charm and allure the patrons of the beer hall.
There are all sorts of tavern wench costumes that are more modern. These include Oktoberfest serving wench costumes which are a good representation of the outfits the real servers wear at the annual beer festival.
A derivation on this theme is the Lederhosen serving wench, who wears the knickerboker pants and braces instead of a skirt.
