There really isn’t a cut of fabric quite like the ruffle. One can envision the period of Romanticism from the 18th-19th centuries, when famous poets like Lord Byron wrote his famous pithy sayings and the famous accounts of his swashbuckling adventures!
This ruffled skirt and blouse combo is reminiscent of that period. It will transport you back to that time, making you dream of gorgeous men with long ponytails and ruffled sleeves, their quills etching dark and beautiful couplets onto pieces of parchment.
Nothing could be more romantic!
