Black
A timeless classic color, that's a universal favourite. Black denotes power, sophistication, mystery and style. Inspite of possessing negative connotations in some cultures, the world of fashion and clothing cannot be imagined without black. This conservative shade is usually reserved for formal or glamorous events. The versatility of black is unquestionable as it looks superb when combined with any shade, though combining it with very dark shades can be avoided since they would blend together.
A slimming shade, black is extremely elegant, mysterious, sexy and sophisticated. Since black is a slimming shade, it is advisable for too slim and lean body types to avoid this shade. The LBD as immortalized by Coco Chanel is a must-have and so is its Indian equivalent - the black sari.
Black looks great on every skin tone. And you don't need to worry about accessories either since jewellery in every metal would look perfect with black. Diamonds or pearls with black outfit is a classic style statement.
