Little Black Dress

The little black dress is a staple of Hollywood films. It is the pinnacle of elegance, style, and grace. No matter which actress wears it, what the plot line is, and what design the dress has, it always serves as a  classic and important feature in any film.

Marilyn Monroe

In the film The Asphalt Jungle, Marilyn wears a sexy and form fitting black dress. With her draped against the door, the dress accentuates her beauty. It is one of Monroe's earliest films, setting her up for her amazing career that followed. 

Audrey Hepburn

Audrey Hepburn made a lifetime impression for her grace, elegance, and wisdom. It is only fitting that the little black dress she wears in the popular film Breakfast At Tiffany's makes the cut. Women everywhere and in every decade try to recreate her iconic look, making her a symbol of style. 







Reese Witherspoon

A modern classic style icon is the ever famous Elle Woods played by Reese Witherspoon. In this film, Elle trades her cushy California life for law school. When hired at a law firm, she trades in her pink clothes for sophisticated black, showing that she can have it all.
