All styles are making a comeback, including baby tees, tees featuring band logos, crop tops and oversized sweaters. We may have mixed feelings about some looks (side eyes baby tees), but we are open to other styles making a comeback in our wardrobes.
Since we’re bringing back styles from the 80s and 90s, we’re happy to announce one of our favorites has popped back onto the scene. And it’s a great one if you want to accentuate your waist. The ruched top is back and everyone, from JLo to Dua Lipa, has been seen sporting this scrunchy top.
We bet you’re thinking of super ’80s prom dresses and wedding dresses with tafetta galore. If metallics and sequins are what come to mind, you can erase them. We’re just saying it.

Ruching can be used to cinch your waist.
Ruching, which was popularized in the 80s, involves gluing fabric together to create a ripple effect. Ruched tops can have fabric that’s gathered in the middle, which helps cinch in the waist.

Flattering on any body type, this style of clothing helps highlight areas that you want to show off. It disguises any areas you don’t wish to. You should wear whatever is most comfortable for you.
The secret to picking the perfect ruched top is to find where you’d like the ruching to cinch in. Whatever you choose–middle, side, or all over ruching–just make sure it’s subtle. You can look a little too frilly if you use too much ruching on your tops or wear them with bold prints. With ruched tops, solid colors are the best option. However, small prints can be beautiful!
Here are a few of our faves that we’ve hunted down from various shops. Ruched tops will be all the rage this spring! Happy shopping!
