We over talk it, over wear it, ignore it and glorify it.
But the black dress is the one wardrobe essential we never really leave behind.
I crush on all-black and then renounce it for being dull. Who am I kidding" There is nothing dull about a good black dress if it is worn correctly. Speed watching who wore what the other night had me thinking an all-black dress very infrequently gets it wrong. It may be considered dull or unimaginative – that’s not really fair – we all know as much effort goes into choosing the right black dress as it does for a rainbow equivalent.
These fabulous women, celebrating 2016 and shot by Annie Leibovitz pay brilliant homage not only to the black dress but also to their signature styles. Each outfit may be uniform in colour but there is no sameness about any two. The women are wearing the pieces, not the other way around, there is no doubt about that.
Choosing a black dress over a colourful option may seem easy, lame almost but it is most definitely not. A good black dress must work hard for the attention it deserves, whether it sparkles, covers-up, or accentuates.
I might even say it has to work harder than a multi-coloured peer for the same effect.
Some of us revel in all black and others feel it’s not for them.
