The Little Black Dress has evolved through countless iterations, from the minimalist shift to the heavily embellished, and now to silhouettes that offer visual intrigue through cut and construction. Designers are treating the limited real estate as a sartorial playground, tweaking the classics to suit the modern woman’s pace (though, let’s be honest, the original never truly misses). If you’re on the look out for texture, lace is currently leading the charge, adding a delicate edge as seen at Saint Laurent and Shushu/Tong. For those who prefer a bit of volume, ruffles remain the go-to – look to Carolina Herrera for proof.
Here is MOJEH’s LBD edit: a curated guide to the season’s best Little Black Dresses and the finishing touches needed to make them truly stand out.
