Little Black Dress: Reinvented


Everyone knows,  the  " little black dress" will forever hold its ground as a must- have staple piece in every woman's closet. Whether it is a Roland Mouret or a no name wonder, when worn the right way it's reliable presentation represents the epitome of class. Whenever I think "little black dress" obviously the first thing that comes to mind is Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's.   Audrey will remain forever infamous for transforming a plain  black sheath dress into the can't-live-without "little black dress." She was plain and simple, but undoubtably flawless; the forefront of fashion. I used to watch it over and over again, waiting for the day I would finally slip into my first little black dress and ideally become her.
Although the LBD is sleek, sophisticated, and practical at some point or another,  it could still be considered to be the big B... boring. Luckily, it seems as if designers around the globe have become inspired,  working hard to contribute their part in recreating this wardrobe classic into a myriad of modernized silhouettes. I for one happen to love the new take on the LBD. Although its necessary for everyone woman to own at least one classic LBD, this seasons overwhelming array of lively new styles and risk- ay cuts are sure to be exactly what you're looking for.
