Ruffles, pleats and pin tucks

Ruffles are inextricably linked with the romantic floral trend, and some interpretations in Paris resembled handcrafted petals. Waterfall ruffles perked up simple shapes, adorning every edge, from collars to cuffs. Elsewhere, structured ruffles added architectural detail to trench coats, shirts and dresses. Pin tucking was widely used as a bib detail, with pleats adding body and texture to silk tunic dresses and shirt dresses.
