Black cut out dress from Forever 21

So I’ve been obsessing over cut out dresses for quite some time and recently got lucky with this purchase!  I just bought this black cut out dress yesterday from Forever 21.  They only had one left in the black and also one left in a cream white.  I actually would have preferred the white being that I own so much black, but they didn’t have it in my size and it’s probably better this way as black is always more flattering.  I think this type of look is very bold, confident, and cutting edge, which is exactly what I am going for with a dress like this!

What I love about cut out dresses is that they are unique (I never really see any two alike) and they have an interesting visual effect.  However, my only concern is how to STYLE this type of dress in a tasteful way (rather than trashy being that it can be rather revealing).

I’ve already come up with endless ways I’m going to wear this dress that will add a sense of sophistication.  Such as adding a chic pair of frames or maybe even layering a bright cami underneath.  There are truly so many ways this could be styled and accessorized!  I’m really excited to wear this on a night out on a hot summer night!

Here is a look at some celebrities rocking black cut out dresses (I guess I’m not the only one that is loving it!):
