A celebration of that fashion essential, the little black dress. Black has inspired designers the world over to produce some of their most exotic and seminal work, from the feather-light pleats of Fortuny early this century to the deconstructed 1980s designs of Comme de Garcons. Stunning photography and state of the art design.
