Simple says it best and nothing says simplicity quite like the elegant, always fashionable little black dress.

According to a recent survey, American women prefer the little black dress (LBD) over everything from jeans to a smashing red gown as the No. 1 item to wear to holiday parties.

And over half those women reported having special intimate apparel to wear with their little black dress.

What Works Well With Black

The most popular lingerie choice to partner with the LBD is the classic black bra-and finding a perfect match can be easier if you know what to look for.

For a little extra oomph, partygoers can choose the Lace Light Lift™ push-up from Wonderbra® Intimates; an elegant gel-padded bra with embroidery and velvet.

Full-busted women seeking a bra just as pretty and reliable as their LBD may sizzle this season in the Playtex Secrets® Legacy Lace™ bra. The lace-lavished bra offers beautiful comfort and stay-put straps that won't fall down and ruin your elegant look.

Women who prefer wearing their LBD in a halter or strapless style need look no further than Barely There® Invisible Look™ Strapless for the partner bra. This seamless bra is incredibly versatile as the convertible straps can be worn six different ways.

If your LBD is body-skimming and you don't want to fret over that extra holiday treat, the Bali® Lace Convertible All-in-One offers firm control in a beautiful lace design and easily converts to strapless, halter or crisscross.

Holiday Tips

When wearing an understated little black dress, one simple, inexpensive way to really update your look is to pair your dress with Hanes® Hosiery. For a taste of Parisian old-world elegance, Hanes French Heel Backseam tights offer a sexy way to spice up a little black dress and the added shaping and support of control top. For a classically sexy look, try Hanes fishnets in black.
