Ummmm -
If the person likes and wears aprons - usually the ties get rumpled when they are tied? Mine do, anyway.
And if the person won't or doesn't like to wear an apron - I don't think it will matter how the ties look.
I don't like twill tape - that does come in various widths. If you use tape or ribbon - be sure to finish the ends - otherwise it will ravel like crazy.
