The iconic dress that has withstood the test of time. Modern yet classic, the little black dress is timeless. Popularized by Coco Chanel in the 1920s, this style liberated women from corsets and became the epitome of liberation. Dubbed the 'Ford of fashion' by American Vogue, it was simple, elegant, and affordable – 'the dress that everyone will wear.'
Following the exciting evolution of the LBD, from Audrey Hepburn's chic Givenchy variation in Breakfast at Tiffany's to Princess Diana's revolutionary 'revenge dress', as well as the more recent mesh details and dazzling shapes, this small book is a celebratory ode to one of the most iconic garments in fashion.

'The little black dress must be luxurious, rich, sensual, transparent, exotic, strict, rich, modest, demanding, playful, and quirky, but above all, it must be simple, small, and black.' - Carolina Herrera
