Wear a blazer, denim jacket, leather jacket, cardigan or long coat over a little black dress, depending on the occasion and weather.
A little black dress is the most versatile piece in your wardrobe, and the layer you add on top decides whether it looks casual, smart or party-ready.
Outfit Ideas
- Tailored blazer. A structured blazer in camel, white or grey makes the dress work-appropriate.
- Leather jacket. A cropped black or brown leather jacket gives an edgy evening look.
- Denim jacket. The easiest way to make a black dress casual for daytime.
- Long coat or wool wrap. In cold weather, a long camel or grey coat keeps the dress elegant and warm.
What to Avoid
Avoid layering black on black without a change of texture or accessories, which can look flat.
Frequently Asked Question
