Dressing for the holiday season can feel like an Everest of a task. Amidst the general chaos of the season—parties, gift exchanges, the actual holidays themselves—there’s a lot to dress for, and dress your best for at that. The answer to a jam-packed holiday schedule? A great black dress.
By now we all know the wonders of a LBD. They can be dressed up or down and styled dozens of different ways to feel different every time, and the same rings true for the holiday season. With a quick swap of accessories, addition of tights, or change of shoes, one festive black dress can take you through your entire holiday calendar and get you named the best dressed at every even that’s graced with your presence.
From sparkly cocktail dresses to casual velvet ones you won’t mind lounging on the couch in after Christmas dinner, we found the very best black dresses of the 2024 holiday season. And don’t worry—we won’t tell anyone when they make you an outfit repeater.
