City Girl Aprons founder Amber Pratt is a fashion designer but spent a considerable amount of time in the kitchen making wedding cakes and pastries for friends. Amber is always in an apron. She was taught to wear an apron even to do household chores! “I love how everything in the home has become so fashionable, so I thought to create an apron line that would represent those trends.†When Amber set out to design these aprons in February ’07, she wanted to show traces of vintage styling but remain contemporary. The line also has a very flattering fit which is priority even for an apron. Amber always says, “There is never an excuse to not be chic and on trendâ€.
Amber is alumni of Los Angeles Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising ’03. Since then she has worked in design for notable sportswear and dress companies where she learned high standards for quality and integrity of work. Also there she gained a rolodex of contacts and resources, perfect for starting a company.
City Girl Aprons is also a tribute to Amber’s great grandmother Ruby Leach who had a line of fancy hostess aprons during the 50’s, which sold to department stores. She taught the women in Amber’s family her meticulous talent for sewing, design and constant apron wearing. It trickled down a few generations and now she’s doing the same thing her great grandmother did 50 years ago!
Amber is proudly located in Redlands California and commutes to Los Angeles to source and manufacture City Girl Aprons.
