There is something about a fitted 'little black dress' that is tantalizing and that cannot be replaced in a colorful dress. (London designer Roland Mouret states). And as Christian Dior said, 'every lady should have (at least) one little black dress'.
Join Glenda the Good Stitch in our newest Sew Along, featured in SewFitAcademyOnline.com.
The Little Black Dress dates back centuries to queen Victoria, when her beloved husband Albert passed away. She wore black for the remainder of her life. And of course throughout the centuries, designers like Coco Chanel, Balenciaga, Givenchy, Dior, have designed their own take on this dress.
And as Sarah Jessica Parker, whose fashion choices have been tracked since her "Sex and the City" days, believes so strongly in the little black dress, that she recently launched a collection called SJP LBD at Bloomindale's. She said, 'We really wanted to make the point that this is for all people at all times of the day. That's the job of the little black dress."

A few facts you (probably) didn't know about the History of the LBD:
- Coco Cuff// Chanel's little black dress of 1926 actually had white cuffs.
- La Vie En Noir// A little black dress was Edith Piaf's signature look. She always chose styles with long sleeves to hide the scars from 3 serious car crashes.
- Needle-to-Know// In Balenciaga's collections, he included one black dress that he personally made entirely by hand.
- Slippery Strap// During a 1956 press conference announcing the Marilyn Monroe film ' The Prince and the Showgirl', the strap on her slinky LBD gave way, causing quite a sensation and that incident was subsequently written into the script.
- Royal Lore// When Lady Diana Spencer wore a tight, strapless black dress fro her first post-engagement appearance with Prince Charles in 1981, the British tabloids responded with 'cleavage' headlines.
- Breakfast at Tiffany's// And one that you probably already know, Audrey Hepburn, in Breakfast at Tiffany's epitomized the LBD.
