When I wrote a few weeks ago about my deep seated love of ruffles, I forgot to mention that my favorite ruffles are those on garments that walk the line between cutie-patootie and avant garde. These kind of ruffles are rare on anything except very expensive Japanese couture, but every now and again, you’ll catch one on some wayward Etsy channel.
This little ruffled jumper by Emily Ryan is way more cutie-patootie than it is couture, but the high neck gives it a little edge that makes it weird but wearable. I love the ruffled min-sleeves and ruffle pocket detail, and the sweet pintucks over the bust. This is one summer lover that you’ll bring into your fall favorites. Available for $154 from Emily Ryan.

I’m with you. Ruffles have to add an interesting flair to an outfit, not just sit there looking cute. This dress is a fantastic find!
As her intern, I can certifiably say she is one creative yet down-to-earth person who is wonderful to work for.
