Ruching (Roo-SHIng!!) is a sewing technique in which fabric or ribbon is
gathered to form ruffles or petals. Ruching can be used to create...cutsie ass
tank tops loved by vintage-esq white women including all the Houstons (sans-Tori) & Heather Mattos.
Here's a bunch of ruched-ass tops. See they come in different styles. Ruching can be quite flattering, but that isn't really demonstrated here.
Why am I writing about ruching??
1. It's like the white woman's response to the apple bottom jeans, boots with the fur hip hop movement.
2. Clothes with ruching are difficult to fold. That's right, they fucking suck. The garment is not 'square' so you cannot establish clean fold lines. I cannot stand a laundry basket full of ruched ass tank tops.....oy-vey.
