Little Black Dress
It's popularity in modern fashion is credited to Coco Chanel, who in 1926 launched a simple, straight black dress in American Vogue. Chanel labelled it "a sort of uniform for all women of taste" and her comments have stood the test of time.
Perhaps the most iconic little black dress (or LBD as we affectionately call it) is the one worn by Audrey Hepburn in the movie "Breakfast at Tiffany's" in the 60s, designed by Givenchy.
The little black dress is chic and sexy, and each of the dresses below will add a different twist to the classic.

This stunning playsuit is made from 100% linen and 100% ramie organdy, featuring on-trend balloon sleeves, a deep bust line, centre front button detailing and flattering flared shorts providing the illusion of a slimmer figure. Sleeves feature an adjustable sleeve opening to suit both thicker and thinner arm girths.
Linen and ramie are natural, luxury fabrications that breath and keep you cool in warmer temperatures. It is in the nature of linen and ramie to crush, thus this garment will need to be steam ironed before wear, and will naturally crease in areas of movement whilst wearing. Joslin’s linings are made of 100% Viscose Voile, a light weight, breathable fabric that is comfortable to wear in all climates.
BEST FIT - Size 10 on tag. Would fit a size 10.
