The Irresistible Sensuality of Black and Its Relationship with Image and Fashion

July 11, 2017

Black, as powerful as elegant and sober.

Times passes by, fashion changes, but black remains. Why is this? Simple. Here I will mention some reasons why the color black hasn't and will never go out of fashion.

ELEGANT: Since black is sober and dark, it is perfect for night gatherings or any other occasion, really. A black dress never goes unnoticed; on the contrary, it makes the person wearing it stand out. Let's remind ourselves—everything related to luxury always comes with black.

EASY TO COMBINE: Black is neutral, it combines perfectly with any skin color, clothes, and patterns, without losing its glamour and elegance.

IMPROVES THE SILOUETHE: Black can make anyone appear slender. People with big curves look slimmer and more sophisticated in black.

SENSUALITY: A lot of people see black as an elegant and sensual color. According to a poll, 66% of women agreed black is an excellent choice for a first date.

IT TRANSMITS SECURITY: Black is a color that evokes intelligence and perseverance to take on new challenges.

Black was once seen as a representation of grief. As time passed and cultures changed, people added new meanings such as sadness and malignance. Today, black portrays elegance and sobriety.

It's a versatile color that offers a wide array of possibilities when dressing up or dressing down.

"One is never over-dressed or underdressed with a Little Black Dress," said once famous German designer, Karl Lagerfeld.

In conclusion, black has always set a trend; it's a basic color that is a must have inside everyone's closet. Black clothing can get you out of a fashion emergency for a formal event or an impromptu night out.
