5x Little Black Dress

Hunkemöller ambassador and fashionista Yuyan shares her 5 favourite Little Black Dresses with you. Which one is your favourite?

The one item that every woman ‘HAS to have in their wardrobe’. If I’m being honest, you don’t HAVE to have anything in your wardrobe. It’s very cliché but wear what makes you feel good.

For those who do swear by this statement, I have found some little black dresses (LBDs) that I think you will really want to have in your wardrobe.

The lace LBD
An LBD with lace. Some think lace is exciting, some think it’s a bit too much. In my opinion, lace is not too much at all! I think it’s sexy, chic and often very edgy. You show just a little bit more skin but are still covered.
Tip: wear shapewear under a bodycon dress

The LBD with a little extra
Now this is a lot of ‘extra’, but when I talk about extra, I mean a black dress with frills, flounces, sequins, golden details or fringe, all of which are still totally in. For a complete casual autumn look, wear this dress with a leather jacket, heels or boots.

The LBD with a split
Always a plus, whether it’s long or short! These types of dresses are, of course, for special occasions. I advise you to choose between a gorgeous split or a plunging neckline.
Tip: a push up bra is always a good idea with a plunging neckline.

The A-line LBD
The A-line dress. Can also be worn on casual Friday with edgy boots. Or wear it in the evening with gorgeous heels and cool accessories.

The off-the-shoulder LBD
The off-the-shoulder dress A.K.A Bardot dress. This has been a top trend over the last year and I think this trend can continue into the autumn. It appears that men really appreciate bare shoulders 😉
Must: a good strapless bra

Finally; let’s just be honest about it. Black is slimming and that’s the reason why most women wear black to parties. So take a good look at the different types of dresses. There is always one that suits your figure. Anyway, my motto is: think outside the box. And with that I mean that you don’t always have to cling to your old habits. Some things look great on you that you never thought would.

Love, Yuyan
