Elliana Smocked Cardi - Blue & Red Gingham

Why it's worth it

Smocked twice — bodice and sleeves — in gingham.

The Edit

Red and pale blue gingham gets smocked from collar to cuff — the elastic gathering runs continuously across the bodice, sleeves, and ruffled hem, so the texture is structural rather than decorative trim. A button-through front placket with small round closures runs centre-front, and the long sleeves finish with a gathered ruffle at the wrist. Woven in 100% organic cotton, the fabric retains a soft hand beneath all the gathering.
