Ruffles are back: Here’s where to get the latest look on the high street

One of fashion’s most popular trends this summer is making a comeback, yes, ruffles are in. And it doesn’t matter whether you’re looking to add a bold statement piece to your wardrobe or a soft, feminine touch there’s something to suit all styles and tastes.

Ok, so ruffles can be a bit like Marmite – you either love them or hate them – but with all variations of ruffles now available, gone are the days of just having to rock the hard, more substantial, structured look.

Nowadays, ruffles are much more romantic and elegant, adding a delicate, relaxed look to any day time or night time look. Not only has this trend taken international fashion houses by storm, the high street is also loving this chic trend which can now be found in almost every store at the moment.
