5 Twists on the Little Black Dress

Chances are you already have at least one LBD in your closet. That one dependable piece you always turn to when the alarm fails, when the dress code is unknown, when you just need a little confidence boost. To round out your collection of LBDs, Fashion Fabrics Club has pulled together five modern twists on the timeless essential.

Tailored Midi

This sophisticated take on the classic LBD combines feminine tailoring with modest hems for a polished look that can go from a regular day at the office to a black tie event. In a stretchy black double knit, it hugs in all the right places.

Velvet

This elegant little number brings together cool bohemian vibes with red carpet glamour, making for a little black velvet dress that makes you feel like a celebrity every time you put it on.

Stretchy Wrap

Flattering, comfy, polished—a black crepe wrap dress is everything you need (and want!) in an LBD. Perfect for everything from giving a conference presentation to late-night drinks with friends, it’s that piece you turn to again and again, year after year.

Satin Shirt Dress

Satin has a way of making things feel upscale, and this shirt dress is no exception. Taking the traditionally casual silhouette (shirt dresses are typically rendered in crisp cotton or denim) and turning it out in luxurious black satin completely transforms the piece into a dress worthy of even the most dressy of invites.

Cotton T-Shirt

On the completely other side of the spectrum is the black jersey knit T-shirt dress. It’s perfect for everyday with sneakers or sandals, but can be easily dressed up with heels and other luxe extras, too.
