Mention a ‘smock ffrock’ and people might think country yokel in a bucolic setting. In reality, the smock frock was both utilitarian and an expression of identity, originally a mean’s garment with a fascinating social history. Join us as we explore the rustic to the richly decorative with the evolution and traditions of the Smock and Smocking.
