A great man once said that every piece of clothing or shoe "dreams" of being in the company of a black dress, because only then will it look perfect. (Actually, these are my words) The black dress has been a classic since the time of Coco Chanel. It is synonymous with elegance and good taste, and I am sure that every woman has at least one dress in this color. There is no more discussed model than this one, and today we have to discuss this topic in detail. If you are wondering how to combine a black dress, then you should know that it is almost impossible to make a mistake, because black is a color that perfectly combines with most colors. We will rather emphasize the combination of specific models.
Little black dress. She is responsible for the beginning of a fashion era that still resonates to this day. Although she is no longer with us, Coco Chanel continues to inspire millions of people around the world with her little black dress. Nowadays, every designer tries to surpass the fame of this product, but this is a difficult task. The little black dress is simple and has a clean and simple design. In a word, nothing special, but that is what makes it so special. Did I confuse you? Of course, if we go back in history, we will understand that nowadays it is difficult to find an authentic little black dress. In the past, during the day, this model had sleeves and materials such as wool were used. In my opinion, this is not the most suitable clothing for the warmer months, but who am I to question the impressive design skills of this fashion icon. Evening models, on the other hand, included velvet or satin. Strong makeup and a fancy hat were mandatory elements. However, things are significantly different nowadays, so now we will pay attention to current fashion trends.
Long black dress .Fortunately or not, we live in the 21st century. And one of the advantages of today's modern times is the availability of all kinds of fabrics. The wide variety of fabrics is an inspiration for many fashion designers and each of them competes to create the most perfect black dress. The long black dress is a classic. It is like real magic in a piece of fabric, because it can visually lose excess weight. It fits perfectly with any style. From street fashion to formal evenings, the long black dress is always a good choice. For everyday tasks, you can choose an unpretentious long dress with a loose cut. If you have a business dinner or some formal event coming up, you can consider fitted models with long slits. If your figure allows, choose a model with lace. Lace is a very powerful weapon when it comes to a long black dress.
Short black dress . A short black dress is a great option when you want to spend a great summer evening at a restaurant. You will look great! Choose a simple model that is not too short. For everyday activities it is not very advisable to wear a short black dress, because of the nature of the color, i.e. black attracts the sun and in the summer you do not need that.
Black dress for work ? Why not? Such a dress is suitable for office style when it is knee-length or slightly below. To look like a real business lady, it is important that the model does not have a provocative neckline or bare back. Choose models that have sleeves. To emphasize femininity, you can wear models with a short slit. It is allowed to wear a small bracelet or a casual long necklace, but in general, do not wear jewelry, because this is a manifestation of bad taste. A black dress is quite enough to look great at work. Complete the look with classic black heels or why not beige ones. If it is cool outside, then take a short coat or blazer in camel or gray with you. If you are looking for individuality, then choose red patent heels or some colorful scarf or bag. You can be sure that you will look great! Avoid shiny fabrics and opt for more matte ones. A black dress made of cotton or linen will do you a great job.
Everyday look with a black dress.Such a look is usually achieved with a short model. A long black dress is not particularly suitable for everyday activities unless it has a simple design. If you decide to choose a long dress, then make sure that it is not tight on the body but free-standing. A long dress should not burden the look. Choose a light and airy fabric with a long slit and sneakers in a light shade. Short models, in turn, create very successful everyday looks. Add a leather jacket and boots in a dark color and you will become the queen of street style. You can choose a flared model and add a belt to emphasize the waist. Experiment, because there are many successful combinations here.
Black dress for wedding .This is one of the most controversial topics. The more conservative part of the population associates a black dress with unpleasant occasions and perhaps older people will not approve of your decision to go dressed like that on such a happy occasion. Of course, the younger generation does not believe in superstitions and prejudices and believes that a black dress is suitable for a wedding and they are somewhat right. You can choose tight-fitting models with beautiful and spectacular accents. A black dress with sequins is a good choice when it comes to such a celebration. However, if the newlyweds have dress code requirements, then you should comply with them.
Black dress with long sleeves.One of the most beautiful variations of the black dress is a model with long sleeves. It is best if the sleeves are made of some semi-transparent material or lace. You will look great. If your shoulders are bare, then add a colorful scarf. You can also consider models that do not create the feeling of completeness and it looks like you are wearing a skirt and a blouse with long sleeves. If you are going to wear jewelry on your arm, then be careful with the length of the sleeves, and choose one that does not cover the entire length of the arm. Closed sleeves do not look good!
Black plus size dress. The black dress is sexy and as we said above it can visually lose a few extra pounds. Plus size dresses are an excellent option to hide flaws and show your advantages. If you have beautiful ankles, show them. Choose a short black plus size dress. If you have a well-shaped waist, add a belt and look in the mirror. Beauty! If you have big breasts, choose a black dress with a cut-out neckline. Long dresses are not preferable because they can ruin the proportions of your body. However, if you are a tall lady, you can afford a similar length.
Accessories and jewelry for a black dress . Accessories and jewelry for a black dress depend on many factors, some of them are the age of the lady, as well as the occasion to which you are invited. For example, if you are invited to a business dinner or other formal event. Choose a pearl necklace and minimalist pearl earrings. Such jewelry will fit perfectly with a black dress with a cut-out neckline and will give a classic look to a stylish and elegant lady. Long earrings are allowed if your hair is up. Although it is believed that many rings are a good choice, do not overdo it with them. It is enough to decorate just one finger. You should take into account the density and texture of the fabric of the dress. If the dress is shiny, be careful with the jewelry so as not to overload the look too much. Dense fabrics, on the other hand, love large and massive decorations. Light and airy fabrics go well with delicate and small jewelry. When combining jewelry with a black dress, it all depends on the harmony between each element. Lace and embroidery also do not like jewelry.
If you are still not sure how much jewelry you can afford, then follow the black dress rule of a maximum of 3 pieces of jewelry. Earrings, a belt and a bracelet or a bracelet, a ring and a necklace. The combinations are many, but it is important not to wear more than 3 items with your black dress. Gold or silver? Both options are allowed and will go perfectly with your black dress.
The choice of handbags is just as big as the jewelry. Choose a sleek minimalist black bag with a long silver chain for example. Gray or beige bags are also a very good choice to complete the elegant look. Faux leather products will do the best job here.
What shoes to add to a black dress? Black shoes are a must for such dresses. You will achieve an extremely gentle look if you choose low-heeled models or sandals. If you want a bolder look, choose red heels or high-heeled sandals. Boots and ankle boots are a good option if you are wearing a short black dress. In order not to limit your choice of shoes, we want to tell you that flesh-colored shoes would also suit you.
Of course, the advice we give you applies to a completely black dress. If the fabric of the dress includes white or blue circles or other geometric shapes, then you should be careful when adding accessories to the outfit. The most important thing is harmony in the look. Try not to overload the appearance and if you have doubts about whether you have dressed well, you can always ask a friend for her opinion.
