This pattern was developed as I tried different commercial options while working

backstage with college students as well as with IATSE Broadway tours. Ultimately the

biggest things I wanted to combat were:

• Front-worn aprons get heavy with stuff in them, and start dragging at your

lower back- there’s no good way to counter-balance them that doesn’t end with

someone getting nailed with a dangling water bottle if you make a fast turn.

• The longer you you wear them, the more the straps get curled up and start

sawing through your midsection.

• It’s impossible to squat/kneel without the danger of dumping all your safety pins

out on the floor behind you.

• Good luck getting to your fly to pee without taking it off!

• Never quite enough pockets and/or/purpose made pockets for what you

need/want.

To that end, I designed the World’s Best Wardrobe apron initially with the idea of a

thick, shaped waist belt like the ones armored fighters use to hold up the weight of

their leg armor and side-pockets as opposed to front-pockets. From there, I looked at

what I always carried around with me (and lost frequently) and created the pockets

and doodads I wanted. If they’re not exactly the pockets and doodads you want?

Change ‘em up yourself, or feel free to ping me at teka@threadwright.com and give me

your input on the next edition. I’m not above going through various generations of

these if folks want different things- if you want a specialty pocket of some sort, there’s

a good chance somebody else does too.
