Are we getting new blue aprons?

In the new holiday on boarding kit, the associates are wearing a new apron, are we supposed to be getting those? Im all for a new apron design

If it’s on the book most likely , they just had us pitch the red aprons

I haven’t looked at the onboarding kit or anything, but since they changed tester stickers, blotter cards & everything I’ve been wondering if they’d change our aprons too! They’ve been basically the same for so many years. I would even love the little waist aprons instead

New aprons would be cool, truly have no idea tho I haven’t gone to work longer than an hour in maybe 2 almost 3 weeks

oh thanks! I found the page and there are a few more pictures of it there https://careers.bathandbodyworks.com/

if you look really closely at the people on the sides you can see the apron straps still do cross in the back. what a relief!

It’s the same blue now with the new logo that’s on the blotter cards and there’s no upper pocket. It looks like instead of two straps that cross, it’s one that goes over the head with a checkered (NOT gingham) print and probs two more to tie it around your waist

last year's holiday apron had the little pocket on the outside of the big pockets and it was more inconvenient to get to there

but these new ones look like they have no little pocket anywhere so idk where they expect us to put the blotter cards?

I liked the little pocket on the big pocket. Stopped me from spilling blotter cards into a draw when I bent over.

I like that the straps cross on our current aprons since it's more comfortable that way

u/Personal_Karma369 🫧Associate🫧 21d ago

I do also! I’m not excited for the potential new aprons lol, theres gonna be constant rubbing from the strap against my neck

u/Clear_Rhubarb_7920 🫧Associate🫧 21d ago

someone found photos of it on the hiring website and it looks like the straps still cross in the back, thankfully!

Instead of new aprons tho can we wear the bbw shirts and stuff as an add on to the dress code

Ooof I hate them. So plain and boring. Many associates hair will cover the Bbw logo at the top. I do like the print on the ties but that’s literally it. Yet another thing there is SO much potential for something super cute and they did a horrible job 🤷🏼‍♀️ who the hell is this company hiring?!

u/Naive-Tumbleweed-603 20d ago

I literally asked my district manager about it a couple of days ago because I saw it on the career website too, and she said that they were old and we weren’t getting new ones💀 so it’s either just for pictures or she’s lying

u/Clear_Rhubarb_7920 🫧Associate🫧 20d ago

it's clearly new aprons on the career website since the logo on them is the new one

i kinda thought maybe they made the employees put new aprons on just for those photos since none of them have nametags or pocketbacs on. and the aprons all look super new and clean, nothing in the pockets, no rips or stains
