There are a handful of ways to take your sundress game to the next level: opting for a standout print, belting [1] it, and even accessorizing with a scarf [2]. But the easiest solution of them all? A dress with a drop-waist or ruffled hem, which will give even simple, solid choices a chic little twist.
While its not exactly a new design — this style was pretty big in the 1920s — we're more than grateful for its return. Scroll through to see the ruffled-bottom pieces populating your favorite stores, then add one (or two) to your Summer rotation [3].
