THE LITTLE BLACK DRESS
Prior to 1920's black was considered the color of mourning, in most parts of the world. Hence the color was never used for daily or occasional clothing. It was in 1926 that Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel for the first time, published a picture of a short , simple black dress in American Vogue. Vogue at that time said that the LBD (Little Black Dress) would become " A sort of uniform for all women of taste" and so it did!
LBD also become a huge fashion rage after Audrey Hepburn wore it in the movie "Breakfast at Tiffany's."
