If you take your cues from the runways, you’ll find that ruffles are not reserved for five-year-olds in their princess costumes. Let’s all thank the designers for letting us do ruffles at all ages.

Ruffled dresses were spotted at the Armani Privee, Roberto Cavalli, and Michael Kors shows, and all of them wanted us in solid colored dresses adorned with ruffly patterns to make for an interesting, intricate piece for formal spring occasions. For a more casual, not so in-your-face look, find a fabric that adds soft ruffles to the right statement piece: a ruffled skirt or shirt worn with something fitted keeps your outfit interesting without overdoing it with a ruffly mess.
