»The Little Black Dress Turns 86: The Best Throughout History
Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld once said, "one is never over-dressed or under-dressed with a little black dress." We can thank Coco Chanel for creating the ubiquitous-but-never-tiresome garment on October 1, 1926, when black clothing was typically used for mourning. Nowadays, the LBD is a wardrobe go-to for any occasion, thanks to a style history that includes the opening scene of "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and Angelina Jolie's recent leggy red carpet statement. In honor of the 86th anniversary of the little black dress, we've rounded up LBD highlights throughout history. Let us know which one is your favorite.
