Is The Recession Reviving Frilly Aprons?
Frilly Aprons are making a cute and kitschy comeback thanks to the popularity of shows such as Mad Men and Desperate Housewives. Happy homemakers of the 21st Century want to look and feel good whilst tending to their domestic chores. Frilly Aprons help to make these tasks enjoyable. The recent recession has brought us all screeching back to our penny pinching roots and many people are finding themselves in the unfortunate position of not being able to work. Being stuck at home with the kids can be a joy not a depression, if you take it in your stride, dress the part and get stuck into old-fashioned home-making ways with hands on traditions such as sewing, baking, cooking, cleaning and gardening.
Cute aprons are in fashion right now and considering the simple apron dates way back to pre-war times, it can certainly be considered frilly with finesse. Once worn simply to protect the clothes and pretty much treated with the respect of a dirty dishcloth, aprons are now fashions item all of their own. Manufacturers such as Flirt Aprons, Jessie Steele and Tayga are three stateside apron brands that have helped bring the people's love of aprons to the forefront. Now buycuteaprons.com is bringing all these well-loved brands to the UK market, along with a stunning selection of custom-designed aprons for UK consumers and domestic ladies alike.
EllynAnne Geisel is an American lady with the urban-chic hobby of collecting aprons. Throughout her entire life she has collected aprons dating back to war times. In 2006 she toured America showcasing her wares in an exhibition called the Apron Chronicles: A Patchwork of American Recollections, a travelling exhibit managed by The Women's Museum: An Institute for the Future, a Smithsonian affiliate in Dallas. This was an overnight sensation and has led in part to the increase in popularity for these simple domestic garments.
Frilly aprons with a retro-modern twist are now big business and every wanabee desperate-housewife should have one. With the popularity of the recent Sex & the City 2 movie where Charlotte York was seen baking 'uber-perfect' cupcakes with her two daughters, the mother and daughter set are seen wearing a delightful matching apron set from American apron brand Jessie Steele. This charlotte cupcake apron can be purchased from buycuteaprons and makes a fantastic gift for women or little girls.

Where can I buy a 1950's apron in the Minneapolis area?
I am going to be a 1950's housewife for Halloween like the Donna Reed show. I need a 1950's apron and would like to buy a vintage one that I could actually wear after Halloween since I do love to bake and cook. Does anyone know where I can buy one?
you should stop by a fabric store. they'll have a section selling sewing patterns, you should be able to find an apron pattern and sew your own, they're easy to make.
otherwise, hit up the retro-vintage shops, they have aprons there. or thrift stores.
