For those of you who don’t mind showing an inch of skin on your upper abdomen, you can wear a black two-piece dress to a cocktail party or prom to look absolutely beautiful and understatedly sexy.

To make it even easier for you, I have compiled a list of the best two piece black outfit ideas to give you some ideas on how to style them. Let’s take a look.

Two piece high split maxi dress with black mock neckline
As mentioned in a blog post about a fake dress, it falls somewhere in between a crew neck dress and a turtleneck dress. It often has the feminine and formal feel.

Wear a pair of gold pumps with the dress for a more striking look.

Black two piece mermaid dress
For a formal event like prom, you might want to wear a long flowing mermaid dress to look absolutely gorgeous.

It’s a black two piece mermaid dress with some silver and black sequin details. For the shoes, silver open toe heels would be the best choice.
