We’re here to declare: The LBD will be the summer 2025 style.
When it comes to wardrobe staples that stand the test of time, the LBD is the undisputed king. Now that summer is here, it’s time to consider some more stylish versions of this timeless classic. But don’t take our word for it – just look at the celebrities who’ve been spotted wearing LBDs recently.
Dakota Johnson wore a black spaghetti-strap midi dress with a thigh-high slit at the Cannes Film Festival, while Oprah Winfrey attended the inauguration of Pope Leo XIV in a long-sleeved, floor-length dress with a pleated skirt and matching pussy-bow belt.
Jennifer Lawrence and Kelly Clarkson have also recently rocked the LBD.
Whether you’re wearing a mini or midi, sleeveless or short-sleeved, casual or dressy, this season’s little black dresses can suit every look.
They pair just as easily with heels as they do with sneakers and sandals, giving you a versatile look all summer long.
