Front covers, of sorts (6)

I believe the answer is:

aprons

(Other definitions for aprons that I've seen before include "Paved areas for parking aircraft" , "Garments worn in kitchens" , "Kitchen garments for cooks" , "Protective garment" , "Areas for parked aircraft" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
