THE PERFECT LITTLE BLACK DRESS

Not only for festive soirées, a little black dress (or LBD) will earn its keep as a sunshine-ready wardrobe staple

Every so often an ultra-flattering little black dress comes along that has us reconsidering our usual uniform of jeans and runners in favour of getting dressed up. A breezy cotton LBD is an effortless outfit idea for the changing seasons. Whether you choose a mini, a midi or a maxi dress, our extensive collection of little black dresses will have you in the mood for an open-air party before you can say, “frosé?”. As for the accessories? A pair of chunky boots are an ideal addition in spring, moving into sandals as temperatures rise. Throw on a lightweight trench coat to weather-proof the look. Heading away with the family? Add the LBD to your getaway suitcase.
