Ruffles as a detail can make any piece of clothing look very interesting and chic. It is usually placed around the neckline and on the bottom of the dress. The more ruffles there are, the more attractive the dress will be.
You might think this detail is reserved for little girls and their pink tulle dresses, but in recent fashion seasons you could definitely see every big name in the fashion industry wearing the ruffles.
As the summer days get longer, the clothes get longer too. The maxi dress is the best piece of clothing that you can wear on hot summer days.
In this post we are going to see how best to style and wear the ruffle maxi dress and what colors and patterns are trending. Let us begin.
Maxi dress with orange, yellow and red ruffles
All of these three colors dominated this season. They were seen in street style and on the runway shows. That’s why you definitely can’t go wrong when choosing the maxi ruffle dress in these three colors.

The coral red maxi dress will make you feel like summer again. It has very small points that you can barely notice. They are exactly what makes this dress very beautiful.
One of the biggest trends of the season is metallic details. If you want to give this combination a nice metallic touch, wear it with the silver sandals.

Bright colors like orange have the power to lift your mood. So there shouldn’t be a dilemma when considering whether or not to buy a maxi ruffle dress in this color.
The dress is the statement in itself so you can easily add a little detail like a bag or minimalist jewelry.
You can wear the platform high heels for formal events or try the flats for the casual events.

In the photo above you can see a pretty interesting combination, mainly because of the leather gloves. When you wear them, you get a certain ladylike look, but with the mix of modernity because of the yellow ruffled dress.
Flowery frilled maxi dress
Vintage or modern, the flowers are always in style. They can be seen on every item of clothing and accessory this season, so you should definitely have something floral for the fall season.
When it comes to ruffles, it looks even more interesting when paired with the floral pattern. With all this in a dress, you don’t need to wear anything to look beautiful.
