Overview"The beautiful embroidery technique known as ""smocking"" is employed in sewing to gather fabric for stretching purposes. Cotton and silk are examples of lightweight materials that are commonly smocked. Gathering or pleating the fabric is the initial step, followed by the employment of fine stitches to secure the gathers. The cloth now has a design that is both tactile and stretchy. Garment construction has long made use of smocking, particularly for the bodice of dresses, blouses, and childrenswear. Because of the technique's ability to incorporate both ornamental ornamentation and garment elasticity, the finished product is both comfortable and somewhat loose-fitting. Aesthetically pleasing and adding dimension to fabric surfaces, smocking is utilized in modern fashion and craft projects, while it has historical origins and was common in traditional attire."
