Inspiration: Tuxedo Dress

Destined to be one of the ultimate wardrobe classics thanks to the likes of screen sirens like j.Lo, the tuxedo dress is back in the spotlight once again for the season. All over the spring runways, with everyone from women's tailoring star, Stella McCartney, to Prabal Gurung and Moschino showing their take on the classic dress, it has been reinterpreted in all manner of guises, in everything from slouchy and oversized cuts, to shimmering sequins adding edge to this timeless classic.
Considered an alternative to an evening gown, if you're suffering from "girly" dress fatigue, what better way to go than in a chic, menswear inspired tuxedo dress? the look commands attention on its own, now is the time to take your cues from the sharpest dressers in Hollywood and try one of the season's standout red carpet trends.

I made one, what do you think.......?
