The Classic LBD vs The Modern LBD

For those of you don't know (and have apparently been living under a rock for the last....well FOREVER) LBD 'Little Black Dress' is a term which has been coined every fashion lover and critic in the industry. For decades the LBD has been noted by every fashionista as a wardrobe essential. Early examples from the 1940's demonstrated by the likes of fashion vertern Audrey Hepburn tended to be demure and feminine. Today the LBD is still going strong but with a modern and more edgy twist.
