Smart Black Dresses at Very
Whether you're building a capsule wardrobe or you need a new outfit for a special event, our collection of smart black dresses for women has got you covered. We've scoured the high street to bring you a range of different styles from the likes of Dorothy Perkins, Mango and Quiz. You'll find options catering to every body shape and type, including plus-size pieces from Yours and designs with longer hemlines from Long Tall Sally. Pick out looks with plenty of embellishment, or go for something simple and understated.
Choosing the Right Dress Length
Here at Very, we have smart black dresses in a wide choice of lengths. Pick out something professional and modest to ace job interviews, or go for something shorter if you're attending a glitzy black-tie celebration. Browse flattering midis and elegant maxis if you prefer to stay covered up. Alternatively, why not step outside your comfort zone and go for a smart mini dress for a leg-lengthening effect? If you're looking for something in between, try out styles with mesh overlays to give you a touch more coverage while showing a hint of skin.
Find a Smart Black Dress for Every Occasion
There's something to suit every woman in our fantastic line-up here at Very - think smart-casual black dresses perfect for brunch dates with friends, and elegant styles ideally suited to posh cocktail parties in town. Opt for easy-to-wear patterns for daytime events, then change into something silky come evening. It's a great time to experiment with fabrics, too. Pick out leather-look designs for a grunge-meets-glam vibe or go for plush velvet if it's rich texture you're after. Then there's soft jersey which is comfortable all day long.
