The Minimalist
The Minimalist is our love letter to the art of reduction. We've taken the essence of our OG apron and distilled it down to a silhouette that carefully blends super comfy utility and understated elegance. Get back to basics
Back to Basics
Our slub cotton, with its unique texture and beautiful drape, feels as comfortable as it looks – soft right from the first wear. The subtly elongated cut gives it a more classic baker’s look and the gently rounded pockets with cross-stitching pay homage to vintage French workwear.

The Pinafore
Dinner parties aren’t just about food. They’re an excuse for putting together the perfect outfit. And shouldn't the chef be as chic as the guests? Introducing The Pinafore, our most elegant apron silhouette, designed from the ground up to elevate your hosting outfit.
Our chicest silhouette
It’s our take on the classic pinafore –– the OG apron that still inspires dress fashions to this day. With its cinched waist, flared skirt, ribbon-like ties, and big lap pockets, our version is as playful as it is practical. The body’s a light yet durable 60/40 cotton-linen blend that gives it a soft and flowy feel, and the cut is flattering for all sizes and figures while maximizing comfort.
