Classy Sophisticated Style: The Little Black Dress

The little black dress is so sexy and sophisticated. It never goes out of style. It just evolves. As a newbie fashionista, I like to learn about the history of fashion and how it evolves over time. The little black dress is known to be an essential to have. You can change it up by adding flair like accessories from jewelry, scarves, belts, etc. The little black dress is a sophisticated look. The little black dress can be an outfit for the minimalist or for those who wishes to dazzle. It depends on the accessories that you use.

First, the little black dress was popularized by a famous fashion designer known as Coco Chanel in the 1920's. It wasn't invented by her but she did make it popular. Her style was adding the little black dress with pearls and long gloves.

50's and 60's


The 50s and 60s made a significant impact on the LBD style. They have made it sexy, seductive and sophisticated. They added more flare to the dress by being more revealing. 



Marilyn Monroe turned the little black dress into a sultry look. You can wear the LBD to accentuate your curves and look like a vixen. The femme fatales in hollywood often wear the little black dress to help portray them as sexy and seductive.

Audrey Hepburn helped made the little black dress popular in her movie, my favorite movie Breakfast At Tiffany's. She help give the LBD a sophisticated style with her long gloves.

You can style your black dress from a minimalist to dazzling. Wear pearls or stud earrings with flat shoes if you want to be a minimalist. You can dress in sparkling diamonds, bracelets, heels and cocktail rings to give your LBD some dazzle!
