historical romanticism - ruffle detail

 

As you know I was given the Trend Historical Romanticism trend for my summative brief, whilst researching I noticed that ruffle detail was one of the main focuses used within the trend; adding to silhouette the use of ruffles adds tone adding a flirty, feminine style to various pieces. 
I'ts clear to how ruffles added a girly flair, and was quite popular in the 19th century with almost every garment incorporating ruffles. It's really interesting also to see the placement of ruffles on certain garments, although many are attached to sleeves I like when designers mix it up and will add it to a neck line, or on the actual face of the garment!
