Fashion is an ever-evolving concept, with new styles that are introduced regularly. However, just like art, there are a few timeless classics in clothing—especially dresses—that never go out of style. We have created a round-up of four such dresses that are must-haves in any wardrobe:

1. Little black dress
Ladies, your wardrobe is incomplete without a classic back dress. From cocktail parties to solemn occasions, a black dress is the ideal and, in many cases, the approved choice of clothing. A casual maxi black dress is perfect for summer outings, whereas a black sheath dress or lacey midi is ideal for more formal gathering, and so is the classic black gown. You can even accessorize your dress with stylish jackets and jewelry. Seriously, who would have thought that there are so many stylish ways in which you can wear one color?

2. Wrap dress
This timeless dress from the 70s is now a must-have style. It became an iconic symbol worn by women at the time of the women’s liberation movement. A wrap dress is a full-length fabric that creates a stunning neckline and accentuates your curves. Most dresses come with a bow or a knot that can be tied around the waist or at the back to complete the look. Today, with floral and colorful patterns at play, wrap dresses are making a comeback, and are turning into an elegant, powerful fashion statement.

3. Mini dress
Mini or short dresses started gaining popularity back in the 60s and became a timeless classic in no time. They are the perfect choice of clothing for most body types, and offer a comfortable yet stylish fit. A variety of necklines can go with this dress style—from V to plunging and high. They can be made in a variety of fabrics, such as cotton, satin, silk, and georgette, and many others. Denim jackets are a popular apparel to be worn over minis.

4. Shirt dress
The shirt dress gained more popularity after women realized that it worked both as a day outfit and even as an evening dress. If your job does not require you to dress up more formally, then shirt dresses can be a good choice, provided you complete the look with a nice pair of boots. You have the liberty to experiment with multiple colors and patterns, and accessorize to make the outfit stand out.
