Heart These are all the occasions in which an LBD ('little black dress') can save you

Queen Letizia (48 years old) has returned and has done it in style. This September 6, the sovereign inaugurated the agenda of this new course and for this she chose a simple and elegant black dress signed by the Spanish designer María Malo.

In this way, Letizia once again brought to the table the importance of this basic item of clothing in any woman's wardrobe, not just that of a queen. The wife of Felipe VI (53) opted for a short-sleeved design and pencil silhouette that highlighted her stylized figure. The most special thing about this piece is in the upper part: based on a large gather, a bardot neckline is formed that exposes her clavicle.

This is just one of the interpretations that the little black dress admits. The most purists consider LBD only those garments made following simple and minimalist lines, however, the sober color that dyes these pieces means that despite the fact that they incorporate some more special details, as in the one chosen by the Queen, they continue to be part of this category. But then, what is a little black dress? In a few words, it can be defined as a classic and timeless black dress. It is a garment that, due to its presence throughout history, has been reinterpreted by countless designers and that has gone from being in the dressing room only of high-society personalities to being worn by all kinds of women.

It is no coincidence that the garment has transcended trends and seasons. And it is that this dress is the wild card for any unexpected situation. Depending on the fabric, its design and the rest of the components of the look, it can be given very different appearances. For this reason, when choosing it, if the objective is for it to work as a versatile garment and squeeze its functionality, it is preferable to opt for the most basic patterns. The figure of each one must also be taken into account, the forms that most favor each body and the fabrics that are integrated without difficulty in the different occasions in which it is going to be worn.

Many well-known faces from the Spanish social scene have made their personal interpretation of this garment this summer. Vicky Martín Berrocal (48) is one of the most faithful defenders of the garment and checking her Instagram account you can find several of them. In the last photo published by Paula Echevarría (44), the actress wears a black midi dress from the Coosy brand, and it is not the first of the summer. Weeks before, the protagonist of Velvet appeared on the same social network with the garment of her image, with long sleeves and a mini cut. And proof that the LBD is capable of being integrated into any style is that Rosalía (27) has also opted for it. The singer has chosen it knitted, with two large side openings and has combined it with some impressive boots of the same color.
