The black dress. It’s our secret weapon. It works for any occasion. They’re simple, they’re classic, they flatter all skin tones and body types. You can’t fail with a black dress. Even a little black dress can make a big statement.
This Norma Kamali maxi is one of my favorites. The drop shoulder and a high slit give an air of sexiness but keep the overall look classy and elegant. I wanted the focus to be on the dress and fit so I kept the accessories to a minimal. The dress comes with an adjustable belt making it fit perfectly to your waist.
The black dress is a wardrobe staple every woman should have in their closet. All you need is to find what fabrics and silhouettes work for you. I’ve linked some of my personal favorites below.
