LOOK: 14 Celebrity Moms Working Their Black Dresses

These celebrity moms prove that every mom has a black dress in their wardrobe.

Black — a slimming, classy, and versatile color especially for dresses. A black dress makes any of our jewelry, shoes, or bags that we invested in pop. Black works anywhere—from casual to formal. And all we need is to accessorize if we want to play it up! But if we’re running out of ideas on how to work our favorite black dresses, here are some ideas from celebrity moms.

Demi Moore and Rumer Willis twinning in black

The greatest fun for moms and daughters is to wear twin outfits. Demi Moore and her daughter, Rumer Willis, twin together in their little black dresses. While Rumer has a bit of sheer matched with metallic heels, Demi chose something more textured for her black dress.

Sofia Andres in a black maxi dress

Many moms have a maxi black dress and celebrity mom Sofia Andres shows us how she makes it work. From adding floral embellishments to a simple gold necklace, the possibilities for moms are endless for a black maxi dress.

Serena Williams with a little gloss

As one of the GOATS (or Greatest of All Time) in Women’s Tennis, celebrity mom Serena Williams still has her events where she needs her black dress. Styled with a chain-style silver choker with a glossy accent on her black dress, it’s a classy look to match with simple hoop earrings.

Marian Rivera in a classy and conservative black dress

Even the Queen of Primetime, Marian Rivera, knows how to work the look! Floor length with a bit of ruffle towards the end, and a ribbon to create an illusion of a halter makes her neck look longer. She also styled her hair in a simple, clean bun and matched the dress with a heart-shaped necklace.

Meghan Markle with gold bangles

The duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle sports a little black dress that makes her statement gladiator-style bangles pop.

Sarah Genove-Yu With the right neckline

Celebrity mom Sarah Genove-Yu sports one that focuses more on the texture and the neckline. The wide neckline focuses on the collar bones with a cut in the middle to create a corset-like structure that gives off a slimming silhouette.

Olivia Wilde in a long-sleeved black gown

Dresses or gowns don’t always have to be puffy or beaded. Celebrity mom Olivia Wilde sported a matte backless gown with chunky bangles during the premiere of Don’t Worry, Darling.

Coleen Garcia’s black dress lets her back to the talking

A halter top dress may not necessarily be backless but celebrity mom Coleen Garcia’s is. This style can create a slimming and seductive silhouette.

Kate Beckinsdale works the latex

Material can also be the main attraction of the dress. Celebrity mom Kate Beckinsdale made black latex work when she attended Demi Lovato’s 30th birthday.

Sunshine Cruz in glimmer and glam

Celebrity mom Sunshine Cruz’s chance to perform at the Casa Filipino had her sporting a sparkling dress with bell sleeves. She finished off the ensemble with a pair of simple gold heels and large stud earrings.

Gal Gadot With a Button-Up

The Wonder Woman actress and mom Gal Gadot worked her button-up dress and used the silver-colored hardware on her dress and bag to elevate the style.

Regine Tolentino with puffy sleeves

A lot of women aren’t too fond of puffy sleeves because of how these can make their arms look big. But celebrity mom Regine Tolentino balanced it out by adding a bronze-colored cinch belt to emphasize her waist.

Rissa Mananquil-Trillo in a sleeveless maxi dress with a ruffled hem

Rissa Mananquil-Trillo works a casual dress with ruffles at the hem while pairing them with her magenta sandals and gold bag.

Catherine Zeta-Jones in black and gold

Black’s a good color for summer depending on the material. Catherine Zeta-Jones made it work with golden accents.

A Black Dress: Simple, Classy, and Versatile

In all lengths, shapes, and sizes, having a black dress gives us an excuse to go all-out on the jewelry. Some of us may feel a little uncomfortable wearing “loud clothes” or dressing “loudly” which is why this dress is a must-have in every mom’s closet. Even if it’s just a simple maxi dress, it can never go out of style. If you’re lost on how to wear a black dress, let these celebrity moms give you an idea!
