This Cinq a Sept black cocktail dress is the perfect LBD for a wedding or cocktail party or pretty much any event you have this fall. It’s versatile, sexy yet elegant, and on-trend without being so trendy that it’ll be out next year. I love the ruffle detail on the shoulders and the flounce hemline that makes it feel more special than your typical LBD. The fitted silhouette is flattering and sexy and elegant all at once, and I love the midi length. It’s so versatile – it makes it perfect for a cocktail party but you could also get away with wearing it to a black tie optional event with the right shoes and accessories and a fancy updo. It’s such a far-from-boring black dress option, which I love to snag whenever I find because I find myself wearing them so often. This truly is one of those pieces you will be glad you bought and reach for whenever you have an event and nothing to wear.
The only thing with this Cinq a Sept black cocktail dress is that it’s pretty fitted so you’ll definitely want your Spanx for this one. It’s actually a lot more flattering than it may appear (trust me, try it on), I always do shape wear with this type of silhouette and fit to create a more streamlined silhouette. Plus, i’ve now had a kid so I need to bring in that mom pooch, ya know? While I typically try to snag fancier dresses for weddings and special occasions on sale (since you only wear once or twice ever), this one is definitely worth investing in, because you’ll wear it for years and it’ll always get compliments. You could honestly wear it to two weddings in a row, with the same group of peeps, switch up your accessories and be good to go.
