The Little Black Dress also loving referred to as the" LBD" is the number one must have in every womens closet. Easy to dress up or down always there when you need it, but what happens when you don't have a go to LBD?Or worse yet what if you don't even own a LBD.
As a celebrity stylist and host of a well known Make Over show I constantly help women pick out the perfect little black dress for their body type.
Step one is the most important, Figure out what part of your body you want to highlight. I.E arms ,Boobs , legs and then pick a dress accordingly. If you have great arms go with a cap sleeve or strappy dress, Adversely if your arms are your achillies heel go with a 3/4 length sleeve or a long sleeve option. For ladies with long legs any length will look flattering. If you have shorter legs and a longer torso your LBD should come either a few inches above or below the knee, knee length dresses will make your legs look shorter and no body wants that!
Step 2 for picking out the perfect LBD for you is fabric. Lycra cotton blend is the most versatile fabric. It is easy to pair with other fabrics to dress up or down. A good lycra blend dress can act as a pair of spanx sucking you in in all the right places and showing off the good bits.
Step 3 is the dress itself it is important to remember that sometimes the simpler the dress the more use you will get out of it. This season zippers , rhinestones , and embellishment are all in but are not the easiest to pair sweaters ,jackets , and leggings with so be ware!
At the end of the day the LBD should make you feel good and look fantastic so try on a million till you find the one.
