Our Story

miekki was born from a moment every mother understands — the desire to dress her children in something truly special.

When my oldest daughter was three, I searched everywhere for a classic, elegant dress for her sister’s baptism. I imagined light colors, delicate embroidery, soft textures, and the timeless beauty I remembered from my own childhood. Yet no matter where I looked, I couldn’t find clothing that captured that feeling — that grace, that meaning, that sense of tradition.

That frustration became the spark that led to miekki.

A Heritage Woven Into Every Stitch

My inspiration goes back to my Spanish heritage on my mother’s side. When I was a little girl, my grandmother would return from her trips to Spain with the most exquisite dresses — classic silhouettes, hand-embroidered details, artistry that felt alive. One of those dresses has stayed with me my entire life. I still hold it today, a reminder of my childhood and of the generations of women in my family who cherished craftsmanship and beauty.

Looking at that dress now, I feel a deep connection to where I come from. It reminds me that clothing can hold memories forever — and that some pieces deserve to be kept, treasured, and passed down.

Why miekki Exists

As a mom of three girls, I wanted them to experience that same magic. I wanted them to wear clothing that felt meaningful — not fast fashion, not mass-produced designs, but heirloom pieces made with intention.

miekki was created to restore classic children’s fashion and bring back the art of traditional craftsmanship.
Every miekki piece is made by skilled artisans who use techniques passed down through generations:

  • Traditional hand-embroidered dresses
  • Classic baby clothing crafted with timeless details
  • Smocked baby clothes made the old-fashioned way
  • Heirloom children’s clothing designed to last

These are not just outfits.
They are keepsakes — symbols of love, childhood, and family heritage.

More Than Clothing — A Feeling

miekki is for mothers who believe beauty matters.
For parents who value tradition.
For families who want pieces that never go out of style.

Our dresses, rompers, boys’ sets, and buttery-soft swaddle blankets are designed to be worn, loved, photographed, remembered… and eventually passed down to the next little one in the family.

Childhood is made of fleeting moments.
miekki helps preserve them.

Thank you for letting my family’s story become a part of yours.

With love,
