Drawings of Women Wearing Black - It’s Decidedly Chic

There’s a quote from Kiki’s Delivery Service about how black shows off a woman’s beauty. This quote is used as a tag on pixiv 黒は女性を美しく見せる (kuro wa josei wo utsukushiku miseru, lit. “black shows women beautifully”). And it’s a tried-and-true fashion staple — many women keep a little black dress in their wardrobe for this very reason.

As you look over the illustrations below, do you find yourself agreeing with this quote?
