Flounces, ruffles and frills are a symbol of femininity and romance. They will transform the usual unpretentious and, perhaps, even strict cut into luxurious clothes, and sometimes they will create royal splendor.

In the 2016-2017 season many designers have decided to create dresses and accessories based on flounces and frills. There was no one indifferent to these details that create beauty and splendor. Flounces, ruffles and frills of different types in almost every collection. Perhaps, among us, many will give preference to dresses with flounces, skirts with frills, blouses with ruffles.

And how to distinguish, where are ruffles, frills, and where are flounces?

Frill cut in a straight line, then assembled on one side for an assembly and sewn onto clothes with the same side.

Ruches - a strip of fabric, which is gathered along the middle line, along which it is sewn to the product. It turns out, as it were, two frills, but on both sides.

Shuttlecock differs from both ruffle and frill in that it is not necessary to gather it. A shuttlecock is a strip of fabric that flutters from one edge only, and by itself. This is achieved by special cutting. It is better to cut shuttlecocks on the fabric along an oblique line, but this is not an entirely economical consumption of material, and the shuttlecock may not worry so much.

The shuttlecock is cut in a circle (in the form of a "donut" or in a spiral, like a shell-house of a snail). The sewing edge does not worry, that is, it is quite easy and simple to sew the shuttlecock onto the product. But more about that some other time. And today let's see what models of dresses and accessories with flounces, ruffles and ruffles are offered by designers in the new season.
