Ireland Baldwin’s LBD is giving us sophisticated “Elvira, Mistress of the Dark” vibes, and here’s how you can copy her

The little black dress (or LBD, as it’s commonly known) is a classic staple in any closet. The right LBD can make you look stunning, stylish, and sophisticated no matter the event. Ireland Baldwin showed off her take on the LBD this weekend while attending a party for Dolce and Gabbana, and offered a master class in modernizing the go-to frock.

The model rocked a lacy black dress that we’d love to have in our closet — and that reminds us of one of our favorite ladies of the ’80s, Elvira, Mistress of the Dark. The bad news is, the dress, which was designed by Dolce and Gabbana, isn’t available for purchase. And if you want a similar dress by D&G, get ready to drop some serious cash — some of the brand’s similar frocks cost more than $4,000.

The good news? You can imitate Baldwin’s LBD style without emptying your bank account — we’ll help!
