Useful answers

All questions
Do I need to buy a dress to wear the ruffled top?

No. The top can be worn alone, especially with shorts or pants. Pairing it with a shirred dress is another option; both pieces are sold separately.

Do the four wearing styles require accessories?

The illustrated ways to wear it adjust by changing the position of the top: on the shoulders, off the shoulders, on one shoulder, or as a bustier. Choose the one that stays comfortable and well supported.
