As glamorous and alluring as its subject, this stylish book celebrates that enduring fashion essential: the little black dress. From Fortuny, Schiaparelli, Dior, and Balenciaga to Calvin Klein, Donna Karan, and Giorgio Armani, black has inspired designers the world over to produce some of their most enduring and stunning creations. A fashion show between two covers, Dressed in Black presents a retrospective of the last 100 years of the black dress in its many guises: smart day wear, chic and understated; flamboyant evening confections of lace, feathers, tulle, velvet, and satin; funky "street-style" outfits that signify rebellion and youth. Dramatic, specially commissioned photographs reveal the dresses' exquisite details and craftsmanship, while the text tells the story behind each piece and its designer, providing a chronicle of 20th-century fashion from a single and compelling perspective.
