A ruched mini skirt with its gathered ruching detail, whether part of a ruched bodycon dress or skirt set, can add a flattering touch of romantic and feminine detail to any outfit.
What is ruching?
The look may be familiar even if the name isn’t. This decorative technique involves gathering, pleating, or fluting the fabric to create a ripple-like effect that is often used to create feminine, figure-hugging designs.
The extra fabric and detail involved is an easy way to add a touch of extravagance and swankiness, whether dressing up or down. Ruching is known to be a flattering detail for its ability to conceal and smooth the curves. Think the clothing equivalent of primer or concealer.

The Athleisure Ruched Bodycon Dress: Ruching beyond the frilly
We often think about ruched detailing as the ultimate choice in curve-hugging, romantic, and feminine designs. But with the continued popularity of athleisure and dressed-down styles, even ruched clothing is not just for dressing up.
With details like drawstrings and elasticated or scrunched seams and hemlines, a ruched bodycon dress like the In the Moment Mini Dress is the sporty and relaxed cousin of the ruched bodycon dress archetype.
