Twins Pleating & Smocking

Twins Pleating & Smocking is a Los Angeles–based textile studio specializing in pleating, smocking, vintage stitching, and fabric manipulation for designers, brands, and manufacturers.

On this channel, we share the process behind custom pleating, industrial smocking, and specialty textile techniques used in garment production. From sunburst and accordion pleats to multi-needle smocking and pattern development, we transform fabric into structured, dimensional designs.

Founded in 1995, Twins continues a family legacy of over 45 years in the textile industry, combining traditional craftsmanship with specialized machinery for both sampling and large-scale production.

If you’re a designer, brand, or production team, this is your behind-the-scenes look at how it’s done.
