Women’s Black Fit & Flare Dresses

From casual dresses to special occasion dresses, pattern and print dresses are always the right move, and as for silhouettes, the fit and flare is definitely most tried and true. Whether it's a wedding, a shower, a school dance, or an outing with friends, the Black fit and flare dress is the answer to that ever-present question: “What to wear?” Though Lilly Pulitzer may be known for the shift dress, this style is a strong contender and a popular choice for women of any size or shape.

Like an a-line dress with a twist, this dress features a fitted top and a bottom with flare plus a perfectly cinched waist. Our fit and flare silhouette makes for the perfect sun dress in halter top or strapless styles, smocked or not, with lace trim and bodice cups – and did we mention pockets? Draw attention with this gorgeous hourglass shape in bright colors to match and shine like Black and beyond!

A classic cardigan tops this look off when you've cooled down or are simply in need of the right item to complete your outfit. Shop all outerwear options from cropped jackets, wraps and other outfit topping statement pieces at Lilly Pulitzer.

Black fit and flare dress options

This figure-flattering silhouette highlights both the waist and hips. It’s fun, feminine and always a winner in Black floral print or paisley, with top designer details. Shop Lilly dresses for a number of fabulous ready to wear (and tear it up!) options.

A long flowing maxi dress offers delicate sophistication while a tiered midi dress with long glittery slim sleeves gives a glowing look that's perfect with the pop of gold accents. Try a Black eyelet lace dress with tiered ruffles that give a chic textured effect in radiant colors and patterns. Plus, it's a great day-time party dress.

Plunging necklines show a little extra skin making for sultry evening cocktail dress attire. And, with its added length and open back, we're swooning ourselves! We're also suckers for sleeves, so you'll find fit and flare in flutter sleeve, cap sleeve, puff sleeve and so much more.

Whatever the day or night calls for, you'll stun in all options and feel better than ever.

To accessorize your Black fit or flare dress or not?

Whether it's elegance you seek or adventure, the fit and flare dress comes ready for anything with plenty of opportunities for styling. If it's ear candy you're after, jazz it up with dangly earrings that sparkle or have an arm party instead with layered bangles. The Black fit and flare is a fabulous choice on its own but especially with the right stylish additions to make your look the envy of all!
