Few people are aware of the contradictory nature of Beatrix Potter's own story. She was a sheltered Victorian daughter who grew into an astute businesswoman; a talented artist who became a scientific expert; a famous author who gave it up to become a farmer, then a pioneering conservationist. Bestselling biographer Sarah Gristwood follows the twists and turns of Beatrix Potter’s life and its key turning points - including her tragically brief first engagement and happy second marriage late in life - and traces the creation of the animal characters who became famous world-wide.

Quality Local Luxury

Strawberries & Cream is a luxury baby and childrenswear brand, to be remembered and different.

Lovingly designed, around a kitchen table in a garden shed on Hampstead Heath, and carefully made in the UK by traditional craftsmen and seamstresses.

We believe in unique and timeless high quality garments for babies and children, made in Scotland and England. Our fabrics and trimmings are made by traditional, specialised weavers.

We believe the process is a part of the luxury, and our garments are developed as they were in the past.

As they always should be.

Hand-made embroidery, made in London - Strawberries & Cream

Hand-made Embroidery, Made in London

We pleat by hand, and develop our embroideries here, in London. Smocking was invented in England in the Middle Ages, and was often worn by labourers. This fine, hand-embroidery technique is back once again in the luxury market, and in recent years has mostly been developed overseas, due to the high costs.

We aim to recover this tradition, to hand craft this exquisite embroidery here, where this tradition began.

We believe that the process and the experience of designing and developing is part of the experience of luxury.
