Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Step1
Create a serious look with the black dress by teaming it up with a suit jacket and a structured bag.
Step2
Spice up your dress with a Far East look: an embroidered kimono bag, an obi for a belt and platform stilettos. An obi is a sash that's typically worn with a kimono.
Step3
Consider slipping on jeweled bangles and silver heels. Top off the ensemble with a shawl.
Step4
Try a velvet duster with a fur collar or a velvet coat over the dress.
Step5
Pair your dress with a sequined handbag and mules for a night out.
Step6
Throw on a zebra-print coat paired with a red handbag and sexy leather boots for a wild night out.

on 8/8/2006 If you want to wear the black dress for a ball, you might want to add a pearl necklace or maybe some diamonds. If you're going to stick with the pearl necklace, try wearing multiple strands at different lengths.
