Talk:Little black dress

message: Discussing Hepburn's look as 'basic black' as was the style in the early 1960s... I have not seen any reference to this phrase on Google. Is this a fashion term? 38.111.6.8 (talk) 16:22, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
thread_title: "Basic black"?

message: What's with the "classic" and "modern" labels on the photos that purport these photo examples to be definitive??    —Preceding unsigned comment added by 169.233.31.113 (talk) 03:04, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Classic & Modern 

message: "Prior to the 1920s, black was reserved for periods of mourning..." I don't think this is true. Sure, it's a part of traditional widow's clothing. But often poorer people just had one formal dress. Which was black, for pratical uses. Example: This is a wedding photo.

message: Does anybody know where the meaning of "little" here begins or ends?  On the Papierdoll page, the first few pictures don't make it obvious what's little about them. -- Smjg 14:32, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Definition of "little"? 

message: I cleaned up the article, removed tangential or repetitive information and gave the remainder a more formal tone.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.40.61.2 (talk) 00:30, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

message: The so called "little black dress" pictured isn't even black at the moment. New picture needed. 109.155.219.226 (talk) 15:32, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: Looks dark green to me. Also it's sequined and low-cut, so hardly the simple versatile dress which the lead describes. How about this one from flickr? I believe the license is OK. Though the jewellery is perhaps mildly distracting. --Qwfp (talk) 09:35, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Picture 

message: Someone removed the image in the article, calling it a green dress. I would like to show you a green dress. Julianne Moore is wearing a green dress, while the dress in the article is not green. Could it be that the green colour in the "RGB" of the image to the left is somewhat exaggerated?

replies: text: I don't think the picture is a real 'little black dress', it's sort of a slutty dirty-green dress. You should put something like this :http://www.stylelist.com/2008/12/10/one-dress-many-looks-the-golden-touch/ in.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.215.20.224 (talk) 21:03, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I sure would like to see that beautiful dress image in the article, but the image isn't free. :( Antique Rose — Drop me a line 21:24, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Surprisingly hard to find a good image! I think that this one  is a good "clean" example of the concept, and also under a suitable license which will allow it to be cropped. Snori (talk) 23:53, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm sorry, but putting some picture of Julianne Moore wearing a green dress to the talk page does not help the case any further - it's just a different shade of green. We aren't blind - this article is a disgrace, that (ugly) dress looks like some moss-green/khaki colour, but something is for certain - it isn't black! 109.155.219.155 (talk) 22:26, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Picture ...again 

message: If the current state of this article is compared with that of Black Givenchy dress of Audrey Hepburn, it is very poorly cited. This not only affects the verifiability of the article, it also affects the style and leads to possible original research.
As an example: "" In which countries and for which classes? Bomber Harris said "The Nazis ... were going to bomb everyone else ... At Rotterdam, London, Warsaw, and half a hundred other places, they put their rather naive theory into operation". Does this sentence cover those cities and places, or is it talking about the major cities on the eastern seaboard of the USA? Citation for such sentences would improve them as it would concentrate the mind on what precisely the sentence means. -- PBS (talk) 09:38, 29 July 2017 (UTC)
