The Somerset Smocking Company
The Somerset Smocking Company carries forward the rich heritage of traditional smocking, a centuries-old embroidery technique that first emerged in the Middle Ages as a practical way to gather fabric for flexibility and ease of movement.
Nestled in the rolling green countryside of Somerset, the Somerset Smocking Company crafts exquisite, heirloom-quality children’s smocked dresses and pyjama sets.
Each piece is lovingly made from the softest luxury cottons, silks, and linens—hand-smocked by skilled artisans using time-honoured techniques passed down through generations.
The brand’s elegant designs feature delicate puff sleeves, scalloped collars, and gentle pastel palettes, combining classic charm with a contemporary luxury feel.
Whether dressing your little one for a special occasion or cosy bedtime, each garment is designed to be beautiful, tactile, and enduring—perfect for cherishing today and passing down tomorrow.
