Revisiting the LBD Cult

If you were to dig into the fashion chronicles, from Breakfast at Tiffany to Princess Diana’s infamous ‘revenge dress’ stint, the Little Black Dress has garnered a fanbase solely for these iconic style statements. The LBD holds what so many want to accomplish with their style: effortless elegance. Besides the celebrated elegance, the dress has forever served as a ubiquity factor. As we trace its evolution, the new league of this little power dresser promises to be a wardrobe ally for seasons to come. 

Warding off style dilemmas since inception, the invest-now-wear-forever factor of LBDs will hold through for decades to come. Righteously deemed as a style uniform, a blazer dress lets you master a boss girl demeanor for boardroom as well as after duty-hours. The fact that a black blazer dress also took over red carpets and runways is a testament to its globally-savvy appeal. 

The reason few items deserve the moniker than the Little Black Dress is because of its transitional style quotient from failsafe to daring. While the clean-cut pieces serve you well for all kinds of affairs, designers are also incorporating OTT elements like statement sleeves, fabric ornamentation and novelty cuts to make it a trophy piece.

Emulate the Audrey Hepburn look recreated with a sheath silhouette. If you dare to add a little drama you sure can pack a punch. Toe the line between modest and sexy with an artsy neckline and embellishments. Don’t forget your pearls because it’s all in the details. 

Emblaze

Though seasonless, is also playing a pivotal role in the trend charts. Bolder than the basic black short hem silhouette,  Who wouldn’t love the idea of a little black dress in sumptuous fabric and volume. Puffed sleeves will add the perfect distinction of vintage-meets-modern charm. 

The new-season version by designers perfectly captures this season’s covetable elements. Discover refreshing little black dresses that will always have your back.
