Black Designer Beach Dresses
When it comes to choosing the best black beach dresses, the fabric can make all the difference in comfort on holiday. Our Lindsey Brown resort wear dresses are renowned for their breathability, made out of soft cotton with a gentle flexibility. Our crinkle cotton fabric is incredibly soft against the skin, it is the first comment that ladies make when trying on our black beach dresses. The crinkle comes from a small amount of viscose which helps to create beautiful shape in all our black beach dresses.
Our light weight soft cotton fabric is especially beneficial when visiting tropical vacations such as the Maldives or the Caribbean where humidity levels can be high. On holiday, our black beach dresses are very easy to care for. We always suggest hand washing any garment with beads or sequins and you can hand wash any of our cotton dresses without the need for dry cleaning. As a natural fibre, it is biodegradable and often produced with fewer chemicals compared to synthetic alternatives. Without a doubt, cotton is a sustainable fabric choice.
Next we just need to decide on the best style to suit you and your holiday.
Drop Waist Bloused beach dresses are super flattering for all dress sizes. This look is based on a kaftan but the bloused skirt elevates this to be a beach dress that you will feel correctly dressed to walk through your hotel and resort to beach and lunches, and for sight seeing a day ashore on a Cruise holiday. “ All body shapes can wear our bloused dresses as we don’t simply size up each time from a size small to a medium and up to 3xlarge, we alter the patterns to accomadate the needs for each dress size so as not to look oversized as many ladies may have a larger tummy and hips but smaller shoulders. The bloused shape of our drop waisted styles works on everyone” Lindsey Brown
Our Paloma beach dress is a classic style, one of the Lindsey Brown first dresses she designed as in fact, Lindsey wears this style on holiday herself, it is one of her favourites as the black cool breathable cotton of black beach dresses is so forgiving and can be worn straight out of your suitcase. The coral and aqua sequins adds a timeless holiday vibe, mixed with gold embroidery the colour suits a warm skin tone as the coral and aqua sequins and detail brightens the face and gives a subtle glow. Paloma is also a favourite of Influencer and style icon Anna Mavridis wears her Lindsey Brown Paloma black beach dress. Anna wears size medium. The Paloma dress is available in sizes XSmall to 3XLarge.
Lindsey Brown long sleeved black beach dresses are not just for holiday, as they can be worn all year round. One of our best selling dress styles is called Provence. It has gorgeous, bloused sleeves and elasticated cuff detail. The tiered silhouette gently flares out creating a very flattering black beach dress shape.
Provence is a designer cotton dress that you will wear year after. Like many of our black beach dresses, it comes with a cotton belt, so you can wear loose, cinched in at the waist or bloused as a drop waisted dress style, or loose if you prefer not to draw attention to your waist. For example day time at home, for a daytime brunch add sunglasses, layers of fine necklaces to draw the eye upwards to the pretty ruffle collar detail and away from the waist and body. Style with ankle boots and a toning tote bag or clutch bag.
Sleeveless black beach dresses are another holiday wardrobe essential and the floaty flared dress style we call Paris is another great dress to pack. The neckline is a fine metallic cord that allows so many heights to wear our beautiful dresses and another clever design feature is Lindsey Brown has cut and styled this dress to wear both ways. The tassels can be worn both at the back or the front. “ Some ladies do not like the open neckline on the chest area so by wearing the tassels at the back the neckline is more covered and I find this elevates the dress. On holiday wear the dress sleeveless without a jacket. Choose a metallic tone of silver, gold or rose gold or even white and add accessories of statement earrings or cuffed bangle. Many ladies tell us they don’t like wearing a sleeveless dress as they are conscious of their arms. With clever dressing you can take the attention elsewhere. The hemline of our Paris dress is flared so it balance the body shape. By adding a bright pop of colour with a statement clutch bag or a metallic bag the eye is draw downwards. You will receive so many complement when wearing a Lindsey Brown dress” Lindsey Brown
Let’s not forget a knee length beach dress, something that can be worn all day. Melbourne is a new dress style that encompasses everything we need in a black beach dress. The short sleeve enhances the dress from being a beachy look to a more elegant beach dress. Loose and floaty, the relaxed loose dress shape will be cool to wear in hot sunshine. If you have a smaller waist and prefer a neater fitting dress you can wear with the matching cotton belt. Accessorise with a wide brimmed hat and oversized sunglasses for a stylish daytime look to protect you from the sun’s rays. Layer fine necklaces or bracelets for evening drinks and dinner to elevate your daytime look to night.
