106. Smocking
smocking as a modern sewing technique may have originated in England along with the popularity of the smock as a working garment for farm laborers and workman.

Smocking on Boys' Clothing
Figure 1.The use of smocking is most associated natuarally enough with smocks. It is also employed on blouses, dresses, nightshirts, as well as a variety of other garments. This included both girls and boys garments. This looks to be a young English boys' smock. Click on the image for more details. Smocking today is generally associated with the English in the 19th century, although clothing historians believe it has much more ancient origins and was worn in many European countries. Smocking is basically embroidery on pleats. The material has to be pleated before smocking. It is a handicraft, some would say an art form that has been passed down through generations. Smocking is associated today with smocks, both adults and children in the 19th century wore smocked with decorative smocking. Smocking despite the clear reference to the smock garment can be done on all kinds of fabric for a wide variety of uses, such as curtains, upholstery, and much more. Of course our interest in HBC is with smocking on clothing. The primary garment here of course has been the smock, but modern smocking can be used for dresses and a variety of outfits for younger boys as well. It is especially popular for shortalls in America.
Origins
Smocking can be seen in many historical periods in different forms. Smocking can be traced back several centuries. Smocking was clearly popular in during the Renaissance in Europe. Many paintings from the 14th and 15th centuries show men and women wearing smocked garments. It appears to have been particularly popular in Italy and Germany. Smocking was used on men's' shirts and women's chemises. This was an adult style and at any rate specialized children's clothes did not exist at the time. The term smocking, or related words in continental languages, did not exist at the time. One smocking expert, Beth-Katherine Kaiman, believes that, "Italian Shirring, which has it's roots in the basic running stitch, in my opinion is a form of smocking all dressed up." The modern term is obviously derived from the

Smocking and Smocked Collars on Boys' Clothing
Figure 1.I believe the term smocked collars comes from the decorative work called smocking which used to be done on 19th Century smocks. The smocked collar, however, is of relatively recent origins. I am a little confused about the term smocked collar. As best I can determine the terms derives from the smocking, or sectioning of gathered fabric, used to control the fulness of a smock. Some smocks with this smocking had decorative embroidery as early as 15th Century. Only later in the late 19th Century did the smock become rehaded as a child's garment. Today the smock is less commonly worn. The smocked collar does not have the gathered fabric, but often does have the embroidery. They are still used in dressy, formal outfits for younger children.

Smocked Collars
I can only guess about the origin of the term smocked collar. As best I can determine the terms derives from the smocking which I believe developed in the 19th Century. At the time smocks were commonly work by working people throughout Europe. A section or panel of gathered fabric in the front of the smock was used to control the fulness of a smock. Some smocks with this smocking had decorative embroidery.
The smocked collar, of course, does not have the gathered fabric. In fact some are all white. Often these large collars do have the embroidery. They are sometimes used in dressy outfits for younger children, both boys are girls. They are most commonly used on shortalls for boys.

Tip of the Week: From Marilyn:
I make stuffed-creature Christmas tree ornamentsgingerbread boys, stars, candy canes, etc. Instead of using purchased fiberfill, I stuff with dryer lint! It's free and practical. Every time I empty the lint filter after drying a load of light-colored clothes, I save the lint in an empty facial tissue box, so I always have plenty on hand when I make these ornaments as gifts. Since the ornaments will never be washed, there's no worry about the recycled lint coming out in someone else's laundry.
