2013 SAG Awards Red Carpet Trends: Black Dresses

It's official: we've spotted the not-so-basic black dress trend at not one, not two, but three awards shows so far. We first noticed it at the Critics' Choice Awards, then saw it crop up again at the Golden Globes, and now Claire Danes, Anne Hathaway, and Michelle Dockery (just to name a few) are opting for reinvented and reimagined black gowns at the Screen Actors Guild Awards. We're talking about dresses with sexy sheer cut-outs, high-shine embellishments, and strategically-placed ruffles. If there's one thing we can take away, it's that 2013 is the year we may take a second look at our go-to black dress in the back of our closets — it's time for an update.
