«One is never over-dressed or underdressed with a Little Black Dress». Karl Lagerfeld once said he was celebrating the most iconic and versatile garment of all time, which, legend has it, every woman should have in her wardrobe. Even in summer. And that's the real news: black will be the colour to wear in the coming months, even when temperatures rise and no longer just during the cold season. Along with red, pink, green, light blue and all other colours of the rainbow, black is the perfect colour to enhance the most minimalist silhouettes with a touch of effortless elegance. The SS23 fashion shows have confirmed this.

The winners on the SS23 catwalks are the creations with dry, essential, almost austere lines, all in black. Prada proposes midi lengths with bandeau tops or with thin straps and a small train; Gabriela Hearst loves deep necklines with flared hem; while Victoria Beckham combined lace tights. Max Mara brings straight silhouettes that reinvent the ruffled neckline to the catwalk; Nensi Dojaka continues to reset her boudoir style; Coperni and Ferragamo add ruffles, asymmetries or frocks; Valentino plays with different lengths and necklines. At Botter, the black dress is worn with trainers and a jumper laced over the shoulders; at Khaite it has boho vibes; at Courreges and Versace it is designed for modern femmes fatales, while at The Row it is the epitome of 90s minimalism.

It's a short journey from fashion weeks to the red carpets, and thanks in part to a certain newfound love of 90s style, more and more celebrities are opting for sleek, no-frills, strictly black creations. The biggest fan of this trend is Hailey Bieber. The Rhode founder's collection of black dresses is second to none. The most beautiful models? The ones by Saint Laurent, often hooded and paired with solid but ultra-chic gold jewellery. Hailey wears not only the French maison, however, but also many other brands and models, such as Versace, Dundas, 16Arlington or Ferragamo. Bodycon, midi, long, leather, silk, tight, softer fit, paired with sky-high heels or a pair of boots, Hailey wears the little black dress for every occasion. It's time to copy her!
