There is no denying it—there is nothing more elegant than
wearing a black dress. Black is an all-time favorite of many women because of
its slimming effect. Plus, it has that undeniable charm that not any other
color has.
If you have been invited to a formal gathering or if you will be going to a corporate event and you do not wish to flash too much skin, a long sleeve black maxi dress would be perfect for you. To help you spice up your black maxi dress, here are some styling tips to keep in mind:
• Opt for one with sheer sleeves.
If you do not like showing off your arms, you can do it
subtly—with the help of sheer sleeves. In this way, you can still adapt a
youthful and sexy trend without sacrificing your modesty. To make your look
trendier, we recommend that you accessorize the dress with cuff and chunky
bracelets. To finish off the entire look, we recommend that you opt for a
ladylike choice of footwear like pumps or open toe heels.

• Opt for one with a low neckline.
Wearing a long sleeve maxi dress may be a bit too much. If
you wish to break the monotony, then you can show just a bit of skin by
choosing one with a low neckline. No, you do not have to show your cleavage.
Just opt for an acceptable neckline. You can then choose to wear a statement necklace
so the attention will be drawn to your face and your neck.

• Find the perfect fit.
A long sleeve black maxi dress is quite hard to work with.
Wearing a long sleeve dress that is too fit will make you look fat and plump.
On the other hand, dressing in a dress that is too loose will make you look
shorter. That is why it is important that you find a dress that will fit you
well. Since you will be wearing your dress to a formal event, we recommend that
you opt to have your dress tailored to perfection.

• Cinch your waist with a belt.
When you wear a long sleeve maxi dress, there is a high chance that you will look frumpy and old fashioned. To prevent that from happening, you should find a way to create a sexier silhouette. You can do that by cinching your waist with a skinny belt. If it is just a casual event, you can opt for a red or white belt. On the other hand, gold, silver or glittery belt would be perfect if you will be heading to a formal occasion.
Today, the trend is to show as much skin as possible. If you are not the type of woman who is comfortable in showing off too much skin, and you wish to remain as elegant looking as possible, then don on a long sleeve black maxi dress. The styling tips mentioned above will help you to still look modern and stylish even if you are dressed modestly.
