The little color dress




The LCD abbreviation can stand for many things but when we see it we usually think of Liquid Crystals Display . In the international language of fashion , however , this abbreviation is mostly associated with the Little Color Dress . The tradition started almost a century ago by the legendary Coco Chanel leaves one under the impression that the little black dress ( LBD ) is the only classic deserving of attention . Of course it makes a lady feel stylish and elegant ; it can be combined with almost anything , yet some women feel that the black color of mourning is not the one that suits their personality . The light colorful dresses have the ability to inspire different sentiments – positive emotions and a feeling of youth and lightheartedness . Every woman should have at least a few of them in her closet . 

And here is a little secret for you : Men are turned off by the rigid black , but the romantic fantasies and pleasant summer memories of many of them are linked to short flower-patterned dresses . 

Just like the little black dress , its colorful sister has never gone out of style in the past hundred years though it has changed shape many times . Ranging from a single bright color , to polka dots , stripes , plaids , flower or ethno elements ( the latter two patterns being the most popular this year ) , the little color dress has had just as enduring popularity as Chanel’s little black dress . Vintage dresses in a 60s style are also very much in style this year . The early Bridget Bardot or Sofia Loren look is elegant enough to grace any woman . 

The little color dress is a paradigm of gentleness and femininity . With its lightness and adorable airiness it brings to mind a quote from Amelia Mann “Gentleness is to preserve a dandelion” .
