Where to Buy Vintage Aprons Online

Lori Jill Shirley
I absolutely love vintage aprons. These beautiful, whimsical fashion accouterments from the bygone era are a hot collector's item among vintage aficionados and fashionistas alike. Here is a list of websites where vintage aprons can be purchased online.

VintageFancy

Hands down, the BEST online shop for vintage aprons that I have ever stumbled upon! Whether you are a fan of dainty hostess aprons or plain cotton smocks this site has it ALL! Prices are very low and reasonable and sales are run frequently. If you are a fan of anything and everything to do with the Mid 20th Century, from clothes to decor this site is a MUST in your travels. Another thing I love about this site is that they have a section devoted entirely to vintage Christmas items, and their selection of holiday themed aprons is to die for!

Stardust Vintage

If you are looking for frilly, whimsical hostess aprons from the mid 20th century, look no further than Stardust Vintage. Stardust has a nice selection of beautiful hostess aprons in an array of fetching colors such as baby blue, pink, yellow, and white and made of beautiful fabrics such as lace and chiffon. These sort of aprons were worn by women who hosted parties at their homes in the 1940s and 1950s. Since this website is based out of the UK, prices are listed in British Pounds, however the general estimated prices for these aprons in U.S. dollars is in the $20.00-$50.00 price range. Also, be sure to check out this store's other wonderful vintage accessories, as they have tons of things in stock, certain to satisfy any vintage lover's heart!

House of Linens

I stumbled upon this little Etsy shop by accident, and boy was I glad I did! This shop which is based out of Canada, carries all sorts of vintage fabric, linen, textiles, and of course, aprons. This shop sells everything from frilly hostess half aprons, to functional full aprons in funky patterns and all at very low prices. New items are added frequently at this shop, so you will definitely want to bookmark it for future purchases.

Ballyhoo Vintage

A dreamy vintage shop that has been in business since 1988, Ballyhoo has a fabulous selection of beautiful vintage aprons dating from the 1930s to the 1960s. Prices range from $22.00-$45.00 and they have quite a few gems in their collection. Also, make sure you check out the rest of the site for more beautiful vintage clothes, as well as the unique vintage BBQ aprons for men!

If you still cannot find that perfect Mid-Century apron to wear to your next fondue party at any of these sites, there is always ebay. Just type in 'vintage aprons' and a plethora of goodies will be displayed right before your eyes. (Prices will vary since ebay is an auction site).
