People say the Fall 2009 season is all about styling and this trend--of wearing black turtlenecks under color--couldn't serve as a better example. This look adds drama and depth to outfits that might otherwise look flighty, out of season, or just too optimistic. It plays up that layered tidiness that we've been seeing so much of for the past few seasons and it makes something interesting out of classic separates.
When it comes to effortless chic, it doesn't get much better than a beatnik-style black turtleneck—that is, unless that black turtleneck is also a dress. It seems like everyone is coming out with black turtleneck dresses for fall, and this look really works on almost everyone. With styles ranging from billowy knits to mini dresses, it's just a matter of finding the style you prefer. Here are some of my favorites.
