How to wear a black evening dress depending on the occasion?

• Wedding (guest) : Avoid dresses that are too "mourning" by opting for a flowing style with gold or nude accessories. Long black dresses with thin straps or chiffon are perfect.

• Professional evening : Opt for a straight or slightly fitted cut, with sleeves or a discreet collar. Add a touch of color with accessories to modernize the look.

• Gala or ceremony : opt for a long satin dress with a signature detail (slit, open back, voile sleeves).

• Cocktail or dinner : a short or midi dress with a V-neck and soft material will be ideal.

What accessories go with a black evening dress?

The advantage of black is that it goes with everything. It's up to you to play with contrasts to assert your style:

• Shoes: black, nude or metallic pumps; sandals with thin straps; heeled ankle boots depending on the season.

• Jewelry: gold for a warm touch, silver for a sophisticated effect, or pearls for a classic-chic look.

• Bag: velvet, satin or rhinestone clutch; choose a compact and structured format.

• Hairstyle: up (low bun, sleek ponytail) for a polished look, or wavy and fuzzy for a natural look.

Which cut should you choose according to your body shape?

Our black evening dresses are available in sizes 36 to 44, with a variety of cuts to suit everyone:

• A-line silhouette : Choose a flared dress that's fitted at the waist and accentuates your upper body.

• H-shaped silhouette : opt for a straight cut or a wrap dress to structure the silhouette.

• V-shaped silhouette : choose a dress with a full skirt or light sleeves.

• Figure 8 : opt for a fitted, naturally fitted dress, with or without a belt.

One black dress, many lives

One of the great things about a black evening dress is that it can be worn season after season. Unlike dresses in bolder colors, it can be restyled at will with new accessories, new shoes, or a different hairstyle.

It’s a smart investment , both for the planet and for your wardrobe.
