The a-z smockshop generates income for artists who’s work is either non-commercial, or not yet self sustaining. The smocks are designed by Andrea Zittel and produced by a group of smockers who reinterpret the design based on their own individual skill sets, tastes and interests. And of course as we craft the smocks we are also working on a "guide for better working".

 
           




care:

how to wash: We like to hand wash our smocks and then drip-dry them on a hanger so that they dry flat and don’t have to be ironed. But some smocks can also be machine washed in cold water on a gentle cycle. (Wool smocks should be dry-cleaned.) If you machine-wash your smock put it in a lingerie bag to help keep it from getting tangled up with your other laundry. (If you wash your smock without the bag you will understand what we are talking about.)

how to iron: Rebel from unnecessary and socially dictated work – don’t iron your smock!
