It’s no surprise that we always return to black, especially at this time of year. Whether it’s party season or not, there’s always a need for a do-it-all black dress in our wardrobe rotation. With the latest batch of LBDs, the beauty lies in the detail. Think: lace trims, ruffled sleeves, bow details and dramatic open backs.
As for footwear: team a black dress with kitten heels or tap into the look of the moment by pairing yours with heels and thick tights. Whichever style you choose, a bijou bag, preferably with some embellishment, is de rigueur to complete the look. Shop an edit of the best black dresses below.
