Lisa Robertoson's little black dress

I hope LR brings that LBD she wore to the wedding to the Q. I Loved the open neckline and the style of the skirt, not needing to be form fitting. I can imagine that dress being a staple in my closet. It would be great to show off a great piece of jewelry, either necklace or earrings. (I believe this is the same dress she has worn on a Judith Ripka show, where I first noticed it.)


The LBD is not always easy to find, especially when you factor in the quality of fabric.{#emotions_dlg.biggrin}

White House Black Market has several little black dresses.

Love these two dresses.

Nordstrom will have a sales associate help you find the perfect anything and all you need to do is,just try them on. It's so easy. I'm sure many other stores will do the same. I have a favbulous summer and winter black dress that makes me able to grab it if I need it. Whatever LBD,you choose,just don't wear tan casual wedge heels....lol.

Great idea! I love the way it went in at the waist and then had that full skirt with the folds. It was beautifully cut. She could make it for GILI.

Re: Lisa Robertoson's little black dress

I thought the dress LR had on for the wedding was classic and quite elegant...but easy enough that almost any one could wear that style and feel perfectly attired.

The fabric would be the key...some chintzy poly/span would not be good, IMO.

You are so right, Kate! I hope QVC will take note and do this dress right, including in petites.

loved the dress and the open neckline and skirt areas were perfect! i would love to know where she got it OR if she is planning it for the GILI line. it is definitely the perfect dress for accessorizing.

I loved the cut of this dress and would love to know the label.

Unfortunately QVC's versions of designer items lose a lot of the subtleties that make them timeless classics.

Re: Lisa Robertoson's little black dress

Lisa answered on her FB page that the dress is La Petite Robe.

I too loved the style of Lisa's dress.

That brand of dress is in the $600.00 price range and up.
