I love black dresses....and you never can go wrong with a good black dress...Such much choice and the one I love is Tadashi Shoji:) Stunning:)
Kisses my dear!
great black outfits looks cool lovely collection i like all black outfits
I love the first one! And several of the others are quite nice too...
I am pretty much in love with all of them... except for the one with the circle detail at the waist. I have less love for that one. It looks a little night-gown-ish. I wish I had a closet full of black dresses!!
I love Tadashi Shoji's designs <3
This is an awesome post because we all buy a black gown at some point. Lately I am loving the one-shoulder gowns. Your selections are beautiful!
Have a great day!

How can one concept look so different? A black dress is a must in a womans wardrobe. I have some myself but few long ones...!

Giambattista Valli (rox!), Giorgio Armani velvet dress, Julien Macdonald are my favs!
kisses :))
I definitely prefer gowns to LBD's. These are so elegant. I love Julien Macdonald's collection this season.
Oh yes, black is a good friend of mine! Wonderful post CC. I'd love to see more of these gals with hats (a la Lillian Bassman).
Gorgeous!!! Great finds!
There are few things better than this. I love the Julien Macdonald and really love the Donna Karan...why am I drawn to all things shiny? hahaha!
Perfect! Such a classic.
It is impossible for me to get tired of the black dress
wait I just want to make sure I wrote my first comment correctly. It was supposed to read. It is impossible for me NOT to love a black dress. Lol I hope I wrote that before :)
Beautiful black frocks. Is it wrong that I'm planning my Christmas night out dress already?! xx

you can't go wrong with a simple elegant black outfir whether a dress or a gown! lovely :)
Kisses,

I am mad for black in the days of Summer, when the sun is coming on strong. It reminds me of the Greek islands where the shadows are long.
There are so many favorites that I just couldn't pick one! The lacey ones are so feminine and yet others are so sexy. I love it! Black makes you think of Audrey Hepburn doesn't it?!

Wow, these are such the epitome of sophistication and elegance. The Nina Ricci and Marchesa are so chic!
I love the one Vlada's wearing, it has a 20s feel but is really modern. Love! Denise xxx

Black is always a great choice. I'm loving that Donna Karen one in particular (and don't you agree that she's really knocked it out of the part the past few seasons?!).
Absolutely divine!
WOW, gorgeous pieces, thanks for sharing.
Hope all is great
xoxo
The fourth dress is amazing! You can never go wrong with a LBD.

In love with the Vivienne Westwood Gold dress. If that was in white I'd wear it as my wedding dress!
Carrie, these are stunning!! Love the Gung piece (as well as several others)!!
