Mama Awards 2026

Nominee: SHOOSHON

Nominated For: Best children's fashion brand

Shooshon is a women-powered children’s knitwear brand creating heirloom garments thoughtfully designed to grow with your child.

Founded by London-based mother and entrepreneur Dilyana Valcheva, Shooshon was inspired by a simple problem many parents know well — beautiful baby clothes that are outgrown in just weeks. Shooshon offers a different approach through the Shooshon Evergrow System, a design philosophy that allows garments to adapt as children grow. Adjustable features, flexible knit structures and carefully considered proportions extend the life of each piece, allowing children to wear them across multiple stages of early childhood.

Each Shooshon garment is handcrafted in small batches by women artisans in Bulgaria using natural fibres such as organic cotton, merino wool and minimally processed wool developed together with local Bulgarian farmers. By combining traditional craftsmanship with thoughtful design, Shooshon creates clothing that is both beautiful and practical.

Parents love Shooshon because the garments truly last. Pieces are often worn for far longer than typical baby clothing and are frequently passed down to siblings or friends.

With plastic-free packaging, fair artisan work and a commitment to slow fashion, Shooshon encourages families to buy fewer, better pieces that can be cherished for years.

Because childhood moves quickly — but clothing can be designed to grow with it.
