A little black dress is always a cocktail dress,
but sometimes an evening dress. Fashion historians ascribe the origins of the
little black dress to the 1920s designs of Coco Chanel, intended to
be long-lasting, versatile, affordable, accessible to the widest market
possible and in a neutral color. The little black dress is considered essential
to a complete wardrobe by many women and fashion observers, who believe it a
"rule of fashion" that every woman should own a simple, elegant black
dress that can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion.
One of the reasons why little black dress could
be so prevalent is its sexiness. Black color is originally a sexy color. Added with
some other sexy designs, like short skirt, tight-fitting silhouette, keyholes, and
so on, the little black dress will display a more seductive look.
The other reason is the convenient collocation
of little black dress. You can find a lot of accessories which could match well
with little black dress. For example, just take a lot of eclectic bangles and
wear them with your little black dress. They can be chunky bangles or thin
bangles. You can wear one or five. It’s all up to you. Perhaps, you may wear a clutch
to match the little black dress. With the black dress, you can carry any
clutch. Pick out a bright clutch or even a sparkly clutch.
