Long black dress

The length of the product really largely determines how the finished image will look.

Black dresses to the floor at first glance seem too “gloomy” and “bulky”. But this is not so, because the “bow” can always be supplemented, made more alive with the help of various details. For example, bright accessories. If you have a bright pink handbag somewhere, then it can be included in this image.

Black dress with sleeves

Long and voluminous, wide and ¾ sleeves – each of these options is interesting and worthy of attention. This season, black dresses with long puffed sleeves are more popular. Firstly, they visually lengthen the silhouette, focusing on the upper body. In addition, such a dress can be worn to work or school, complementing it with non-massive accessories.

Puffy black dress

Lush dresses, like polka dot dresses, either go out of trend, or win the hearts of girls again and again. This option would be ideal for a social event, evening, going to the theater or a wedding with friends. The main thing is to follow the proportions of the body and not to put too much emphasis on its lower part. A tight-fitting top will help avoid this. Again, it’s important to strike a balance.

Black dress with a slit

The cut always looks aesthetically pleasing: it stretches the silhouette and draws attention to the lower body. You can complement a black dress with a slit with simple jewelry that will not overload the image. It is best to choose “light” shoes. After all, the whole emphasis will go to the main detail of this thing.

What to wear with a black dress

In many ways, the choice of what to combine a black dress with depends on its style, length, and an approximate image that emerges in your head. This thing is quite universal, if we talk about a tight-fitting dress or a jacket dress. Alternatively, they can be worn with thick-soled sneakers and a light jacket. A more discreet option is pumps and, as an addition, a shoulder bag.

To complement the image with an evening black dress, you can use hoop earrings and a small clutch. A long outfit on the floor should not be combined with high shoes: it is better to choose boots or flat shoes. Lush – it will be interesting to look with a high hairstyle and sandals on a high platform. As for outerwear, here the style plays a special role. In order not to overload the image, it should be as simple as possible, light, not voluminous. A black dress will be interesting to combine with a “male” type jacket and ankle boots, as well as with a more sophisticated top: for example, a trench coat or coat. In addition, this item is ideal for creating basic looks for shopping, walking or breakfast. It is very convenient that black looks with almost all colors. But if you like contrast, then pair it with pink, yellow or light green.

Again, it’s worth looking at which dress, which occasion, but with the right selection of evening and daytime accessories, you can give the image a stylish look.

It is worth remembering that accessories must also be combined with each other.

It goes very well with a coat – a poncho: it gives the image a beautiful trapezoidal silhouette.
