My wardrobe holds many items that have ruffles from mini skirts (yes, still) to ankle boots. Good thing too because the Spring/Summer runways showed plenty of them. They’re pretty easy to incorporate into the street/party/office/office party.

Ruffles (they’ve never completely gone out of fashion) are fluttery, eye-fooling flounces of fabric that can focus attention away from trouble spots. It’s best to keep ruffles away from areas of your body that are already full.
Pairing ruffles with simple, structured pieces also prevents the style from overwhelming your entire figure.
Blouses: Ruffled blouses are an easy way to look glamorous and put-together. Try a simple pair of trousers or a pencil skirt with a top with flowy fabric gathered at the neck. Make a more subtle statement with a top that has ruffles only at the cuffs or around the hem. If you prefer clean, classic looks, update your go-to white button-down shirt by replacing it with a blouse that has small, tight ruffles only on the collar or along the front. Ruffled tops also look great with
