The little black dress (or ‘LBD’ for short!) has been around for as long as needles, fabric and thread. It also likely isn’t going anywhere any time soon. Regardless of the dress code of an event, a little black dress brings with it a sense of class and put-togetherness. In most cases it’s a safe option, a sure bet that you’re not going to look like a disaster (as if that’s possible)! It’s a winning number when you’re seeking something foolproof, but glamorous. Chances are, you won’t be under or overdressed for an event in your little black dress. It can be your saving grace from those dreaded “I have nothing to wear” moments.

It’s a wardrobe staple. Far from boring, an absolute must in every woman’s wardrobe;  a simple go-to outfit for every occasion. Whether you’re a knee-length, mini or full-length person, there’s always a little black dress option somewhere for you on the market. It can have sleeves or no sleeves. You can dress it up or down. You can turn it serious or sexy with ease. The little black dress can be worn with a jacket and thigh-high boots, or to an evening affair with a pair of brightly-coloured pumps and an eye-catching clutch.
