A ruffle skirt is the perfect whimiscal touch to any outfit, characterised by unique textures, layers, and frilled edges. We've reimagined ruffles with new fabrics, lengths, and patterns, giving them a fresh twist.

Pair a bandeau or a halter top with a mini ruffle skirt for a youthful charm and fluid movement through the delicate layers. Mini ruffle skirts are ideal for casual outings and beach vacations. Wear them with some sandals and accessories such as a shell choker to channel your inner Outer Banks aesthetic.

Style an asymmetric, lace, or floral maxi skirt for a glamorous night out or cocktail event. These options are stunning when complemented with a slim-fitting long-sleeve, a flared-sleeve front tie, or a playful crop top with ruffled shoulders. Experiment with knee-high boots or strappy heels and accessories to accentuate the different components of your ensemble.

How do you care for a ruffle skirt?

Caring for a ruffle skirt requires attention to fabric type and construction. Gentle washing, minimal heat, and proper storage help preserve ruffle shape and prevent flattening, fraying, or distortion over time.

Should ruffle skirts be hand-washed or machine-washed?

Delicate or lightweight ruffle skirts benefit from hand washing, while sturdier fabrics can be machine-washed on a gentle cycle using cold water and mild detergent.

How do you prevent ruffles from losing their shape?

Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric, reshape ruffles while damp, and allow the skirt to air-dry flat or hanging to maintain structure.

Can ruffle skirts be ironed or steamed?

Steaming is usually preferred, as it relaxes wrinkles without crushing ruffles, while ironing should be done carefully on low heat with a pressing cloth if needed.
