Although we love experimenting with new season prints and bold colours, we can’t deny it: we love a classic black look. Flattering, timeless and always on trend, it’s the foundation of our capsule wardrobe and suits any occasion or dress code.

From a casual daytime mini dress to a sleek evening dress, there’s endless opportunities to style these staple pieces and step out looking stunning. Get inspired and freshen up your classic black look with our on-trend outfit ideas.

Casual Outfit Ideas

When we’re going for an effortless but stylish casual look, black is always our go-to, no matter the season. Whether you’re running errands or grabbing a coffee with a friend, a simple black dress paired with lowkey accessories exudes that sought after, off-duty style. For a stunning winter look, layer a long sleeve black midi with boots and an oversized leather jacket, or show some skin in summer with a feminine black mini, black leather sandals and a coordinating cross body bag.

Party Outfit Ideas

A little black dress and a night out with your closest girlfriends go hand-in-hand. Level up the classic LBD with a shimmering, lace or satin fabric and explore asymmetric cuts and sheer finishes to add some glam. Accessorise a simple silhouette with statement gold earrings and a choker style necklace or let a bolder number be the centre of attention and finish with delicate jewellery. Complete your party look with a pair of black strappy heels and a red lip.

Formal Outfit Ideas

When it comes to a formal dress code, black exudes glamour and class. Whether it’s a black tie dinner or charity ball, a black gown, slick hair and glam makeup look is a recipe for success. On cooler evenings add a faux fur jacket and accessorise with statement diamante drop earrings and classic black heels.

Black is known to be universally flattering and always reliable, there’s no danger of underwhelming in the right black ensemble. Whether you’re looking for an effortless weekend look or to make a statement at your next evening soiree, our outfit picks will see you looking and feeling incredible.
