Loragal Black & Red Ruffle Dress Review + Quick Styling Hack

I finally got a chance to wear this absolute masterpiece—the Colorblock Ruffle Patchwork Sleeveless Party Mini Dress from Loragal (SKU:K735050164275470336). Seriously, you need to see this dress up close.

The design is just dramatic and so unique. It starts with a super sleek, high-neck black sleeveless bodice that is perfectly fitted. Then, from the waist down, the skirt flares out in this gorgeous, voluminous way. The real showstopper is the hem: it’s completely covered in these bold, textured red ruffle rosettes that are so vibrant against the black. It gives the whole look this amazing, playful-yet-sophisticated silhouette.

A Quick Styling Secret

Okay, so real talk for a second: I ran into one little issue. I'm wearing a size small, and while the fit everywhere else was great, the seam where all those gathers and ruffles meet at the waist was surprisingly itchy against my skin. I honestly don't know what they did with the stitching there.

To fix it, I just slipped on a singlet underneath, and problem solved. Sometimes you have to improvise to make fashion work, right? But seriously, if you order it, just keep a little cami or singlet handy.

I was so lucky to catch that incredible golden hour light for the photos on our way back from Elgin. The warm glow on the paved path and the lush greenery in the background made the red and black pop even more.

I paired the dress with my sparkly high heels (a beautiful birthday gift) and kept my accessories simple with classic pearl studs. Of course, I had to match the energy of those red ruffles with a bold red lipstick—it just ties the whole look together.

I felt so confident and joyful in this outfit. It truly combines elegance with dramatic style. What do you all think of the color combo? Let me know your favorite part of the look.

  17. Como nos dices el entorno y la luz hacen realzar el vestido que llevas puesto, el color de labios no me parece muy intenso ya que he visto tonos rojos iguales a los adornos de tu vestido.

    Saludos.

  21. Больше всего мне нравится идеальная фигура модели. Поэтому и платье сидит очень хорошо. Сочетание смелое, но оно и показывает характер - не каждой девушке подойдёт.
    Да, золотой час удачно поймали, фото смотрятся ещё более дорого.
