<h2>FAQs</h2>
<p><strong>What occasions can I wear a black dress to?</strong></p>
<p>A black dress works for pretty much any event because it's timeless, flattering and can be styled a million different ways. You can wear <a href="https://www.hellomolly.co.nz/collections/party-dresses/color_black">black party dresses</a> to birthdays, rooftop drinks and nights out with the girls, while black evening dresses are great for weddings, galas and fancy dinners. Black always fits in without ever feeling boring.</p>
<p><strong>How do I style a little black dress for a night out?</strong></p>
<p>A <a href="https://www.hellomolly.co.nz/collections/mini-dresses/color_black">black mini dress</a> is the ultimate blank canvas, which means you get to have fun with the details! Try pairing it with strappy lace-up heels or a sleek patent pump for that polished-but-still-hot finish. Add a mini top-handle bag or a cute croc-embossed shoulder bag, then layer on chunky hoops, a bold cuff bracelet or a sparkly choker to bring the whole look to life. That's how you take a simple LBD and turn it into a “wait, where did you get that?” moment.</p>
<p><strong>What shoes should I wear with a <a href="https://www.hellomolly.co.nz/collections/formal-dresses/color_black">black formal dress</a>?</strong></p>
<p>A classic pointed-toe pump always works with a black formal dress. If you want something a little more modern, try slim ankle-strap heels or a barely-there stiletto.</p>
<p><strong>What's the difference between a black cocktail dress and a black evening dress?</strong></p>
<p>The main difference comes down to the length, sis. A black cocktail dress is made for semi-formal moments and usually sits around the knee, while a black evening dress is your go-to for fancy occasions and almost always goes full floor-length. Cocktail dresses feel a little more fun and flirty, while evening gowns bring the drama with long hemlines and luxurious fabrics.</p>
