Hand-smocked creations usually become heirlooms as they are treasured and handed down within families. Each Oscar Newman hand-smocked dress follows the meticulous art of hand-smocking, embellished with delicate hand embroidery and beading --- designed to create classic yet modernized, elegant treasures.
