The Aprons
I usually have the following apron styles on hand. If by chance you want an apron sooner rather than later, I will send pictures of what is currently available in your stated style and color preferences for a quick turn around.
Another option, and one which is quite fun, is to shop via Skype or Apple's Facetime and see the available aprons in real time.

1930's(?) Swirly Apron - $35
Flirty and sassy are words often used to describe the
Swirly and it is a showstopper! When this is on the mannequin at the front if my booth, it brings smiles to the faces of those who are
surprised to see an apron that looks like such fun to wear. The
skirt of the Swirly is what gives this aprons its pizazz and when this apron is worn the urge to sashay
those hips is hard to resist.
The Swirly couldn't be simpler to wear: put it over your head and tie the waist and you're ready for whatever your kitchen can throw at you. The wide neck band, which is the same used for all my one-size aprons, is comfortable and never pulls on the back of the neck. The triangular pocket is anchored with a wooden button and Its double layer gives it body and shape. As with all my aprons, bias binding encloses the raw edges of this pre-washed, 100% cotton apron.
You can wear this apron all day and stay comfortable while looking quite glamorous.
Comes in one size, which fits most.

1940's Rick Rack Apron - $35
Nothing says vintage like rick rack. This 40's full apron displays it along the bottom of the apron, which accentuates the gently curve of the hem. The double-layered triangular pocket is anchored with a wooden button and will hold your essential items (as long as they aren't too big).
The wide band used for the over-the-head design of this apron is comfortable and never pulls on the back of the neck. Simply place it over the head and tie at the waist and you're good to go. You can wear this apron all day and always be comfortable, not to mention quite stylish.
Rick rack follows the line of the hem, which dips down in the front to slightly lengthen the front. Bias binding encloses the raw edges of this pre-washed, 100% cotton apron.
Comes in one size, which fits most.
1920's Flapper Apron - $35
Flapper front
Looking for an apron that will give the best coverage? Look no further. This apron protects both front and rear.
The one piece apron presents a straightforward line with an uninterrupted flow typical of the flapper styling. This apron is more forgiving for those of us with less than svelte figures though is in no way limited to the more ample body size. The bodice allows excellent coverage for those more buxom, protecting the clothing underneath from the splats and splatters of kitchen life.
Two handy, bias topped pockets catch the ever-present odds and ends of our lives and that's it - no fuss - just excellent coverage with smooth, classic lines.

Flapper back
The front falls to just above the knee while the back rises to a subtle draping at the tie. The rear view of this apron presents a totally different aspect from the front with draping that adds a bit sass to the otherwise understated apron.
This apron has a comfortable over-the-head neck piece, which never pulls or causes discomfort with extended wear.

1950's Atomic Momma - $35
I love this apron!
There's something about the combination of the scoop neckline and dipping front hemline that makes this a very flattering apron.
I found this in what seemed to be an obscure corner of the web, realizing it was very close to an apron I've been on the lookout for a while now. The original apron had a square neckline with straps that attached and went over the shoulders, crossing in back and attaching to the waistband - a definite no-no in a 'one size fits most' situation. Adaptation is the answer to the question of how to make this work for most people.
If it's a large, functional pocket you're looking for then this apron should fit the bill with it's ample-sized tulip shaped and rick rack enhanced pocket. It will hold quite a bit of whatever gets stashed in it's space.
Made of 100% pre-washed cotton with bias bound edges, it will wash and dry and wash and dry and keep on protecting your clothing for a long time.

1947 Halter - $35
It took a while to find a vintage halter apron that was tempting enough to recreate and this one comes with an actual date: 1947 - just after World War II and the beginning of the baby boom generation. After much tweaking of the original pattern it's ready!
The Halter Apron is the only full apron I make that has a waistband and a bodice that ties behind the neck. It's this tie-behind-the-neck feature that allows the apron to be adapted to most body types. Short or tall the bodice will adjust accordingly, creating a custom fit.
Often described as "sexy", this apron is fun to wear and looks great. The double box pleats on the skirt give it a style and flair not expected in an apron.
As with all my aprons, the Halter Apron is made of pre-washed 100% cotton and bound with bias tape to cover all raw edges.

Spick & Span - $35
Anyone who spends time in the kitchen knows, in the process of food preparation, our hands are constantly being washed, rinsed and dried. If most people are like me it means a towel is slung over the shoulder to make the constant need to dry those hands a quicker process.
Enter this apron with its built-in towel to simplify and glamorize your kitchen experience. The deep pocket is there to hold those items you wish to keep close at hand.
The cotton toweling and base apron and held together at the waistband with triple stitching to stabilize and anchor the apron.
This apron could easily become your best friend in the kitchen.
One size.
Hostess with the Mostest - $30
If you're looking for an apron that goes beyond the kitchen and into the dining room then this hostess apron should fit the bill.
Sweet and sassy with two flouncy layers of fabric, it's main function is to make you look good! This is not the apron normally used to catch the splattering sauces but to don after you've taken off your working apron and are ready to greet your dinner guests.
Oh-la-la!
One size.
Chef & Garden Aprons - $35
Designed as an apron suitable, but definitely not limited, to men with its lack of frills and fuss, this chef's apron has a two-panel pocket running along the hemline. It's functional, provides good protection from spills and splatters and looks good!
The classic design has an attached, non-adjustable neck piece for ease of putting on and taking off and ties below the waist at the back.
Unlike the quilting cotton that is used in the majority of my aprons, the Chef Apron is made of 100% decorator-weight cotton, giving it more body and substance.
Once size.
