H&M

Last night at an H&M event at The Wooly in NYC, Lana Del Rey performed in an all-black H&M ensemble that's understated and powerful at the same time. The singer chose a black sheer-panel maxi dress, topped with a sharp black tuxedo blazer. Black-and-gold ankle-strap sandals and her signature pointy red nails finished her look. It makes sense that Lana took part in the event since she's H&M's Fall fashion campaign model — re-create her beauty look on BellaSugar. To get Lana's latest all-black ensemble, invest in a sheer-panel black maxi dress and an equally sleek black tuxedo blazer. Shop similar pieces below to get her look now.
