The luxury of the Little Black Dress is that you can dress it up or down and wear it day and night, year after year. Sue Grafton’s alphabet detective, Kinsey Millhone, has been wearing her wrinkle-resistant version on dates and to funerals, parties and court since the 1980s. But sometimes the LBD’s main advantage is its curse, forcing the need for extra decisions -- earrings? a choker? double-strand pearls? a scarf?
Voilá — the pre-accessorized LBD. Sequins, beads, gems, chains, zipper teeth, grommets, pearls... If you have the energy to select a pair of shoes, the dress has made the rest of the sartorial decisions for you. And why couldn’t you wear one of these to a funeral? I’d try the MICHAEL Michael Kors, middle row, left, paired with a cashmere cardi and vintage slingbacks. All nine dresses are available at MyShape.com.
