LBD–wardrobe staple?

Some things never go out of fashion and at almost half a century old, the little black dress proves itself to be top of the frocks again. It is considered an essential part of fashion that every woman should own a little black dress that can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion.

Anyone with a little black dress will not need telling why they are so wonderful but a reminder is always good when you feel like you have nothing to wear. Let me tell you why I’m loving all my little black dresses -

  • They are flattering, even though I look like a total balloony at some point of time (my gfs will not agree to this one!)
  • I can go from work to funeral and straight to a cocktail party – (ok, don’t imagine anything here)
  • It has slimming effect –hey it works you know.
  • I can dress it down with black funky tights, flat shoes, cardi or my blazer.
  • They look great whether it cost RM50 or RM5000.
  • I can wear the same dress for a week and look different every day with the wonder of accessories.
  • It can be elegant, chic, sexy, formal, relaxed, reserved, you can stand out or blend into the background.
  • You know it will never go out of fashion so it is a long term investment (as long as you don't buy one with a puffball skirt).

When I hear the words “little black dress,” I always think of Audrey Hepburn and Breakfast at Tiffany’s. I’m sure I’m not alone in this. Audrey has truly made that little black dress a fashion history. She captivates me with her effortless grace and aristocratic movements and everything she wore complimented her youthful figure.
