Among the racks of smart, casual garb at Old City’s Smak Parlour, a beacon of femininity hangs in shades of yellow, navy and royal blue. "The Ruffle Dress” as it’s dubbed by designers and shop owners, Abby and Katie, has all the ingredients for a flawless frock. Details like red heart buttons on the navy and white polka-dot versions, white flowers up the center of the yellow version and distinctive cameos on the royal blue adaptation (pictured) add charming flare to the design. Criss-cross front ruffles at the bust and a keyhole surrounded by frills at back are the sort of meticulous details more closely associated with couture, offered with the dress at a refreshingly fair price point.
