19 Impressive Ways To Elevate Your Little Black Dress Like A Style Star
- A wardrobe can't be complete and a woman can't be fashionable without an LBD.
- You probably resort to wearing it in just one religious way——Boring much?
- We're going to show you how to style it up in unique ways.
Over emphasized yet remains relevant, that’s the story of the little black dress, fondly called the LBD. A wardrobe can’t be complete and a woman can’t be fashionable without a little black dress (or two) resting stylishly in her closet. Although Princess Diana‘s revenge dress is often referenced as the piece of clothing that shot the LBD to global fame, it was actually Coco Chanel who enlightened women on its importance. Decades and millions of women later, the Little Black Dress is yet to underdeliver on its promise: timeless, fashionable, and sophisticated.
One great thing about this outfit is its versatility as it can fly on the red carpet, Sunday morning service, or a baby shower. Considering that the LBD will work in a variety of settings, it’s therefore important to know how to style it to perfection. This is certainly what separates the famed fashionistas from everybody else. Good thing you’re here as styling class is about to begin.
