15 Frilly Tops We Can’t Get Enough Of This Year

It seems that most women shed their ruffly party frocks and frilly tops by the age of 12 (the frilly bat mitzvah? Quelle horreur!). This season, however—and looking forward to the Spring and Pre-Fall collections—the ruffle is the game-changing flourish on dresses, sleeves, and even otherwise sedate trousers. It adds softness to tailoring, movement to minimalist offerings, and always, always a sense of charm and drama, which is essential to survive the holidays.

Here, Vogue Magazine and Vanessa Axente shows how easy it is to be both fabulously frilly and unfathomably fashionable. CATE Blanchett arrived at last night’s Academy Of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences New Members Receptionin London (a glittering affair hosted by U.S. Ambassador to the UK, Matthew Barzun, at his home Winfield House) wearingProenza Schouler’s dress of the season.

We cannot emphasis enough that this is the dress that every fashion editor wants to shoot right now, and own by February 2016, and it’s safe to say that Cate killed it in this look. Flamenco frills and the ruffled silhouetteare big news next year – everyone at the Vogue office is also fawning over the spring/summer 2016 Alexander McQueen collection, which was widely received as Sarah Burton’s greatest to date (as sported by Rooney Mara, Blanchett’s co-star in new film, Carol).

The Edgy Frill Flirt

For the edgy flirt, the leather ruffle as dropped sleeve. One of the good frilly tops across the table on a really hot Boxing Day brunch date.

Stella McCartney Style

Lettuce-edged knit, tiered silk, flanged trousers: Three brilliant new pieces to wear together or separately through August (and look utterly chic at all times). Investment dressing redefined.
