We’ve all heard that one of the must-haves in any wardrobe is that “little black dress” – good for any occasion and makes you look absolutely fabulous! It’s that go-to piece in every woman’s wardrobe for a date, a wedding, a special event, or a night on the town!

Announcing SLEEK, from chloe & reese designer, Annmarie Scotto-Dinan, an innovative and unique designer line featuring the new, must-have little black dress, hitting stores in Spring 2010. The best part is no shapewear is even needed!!

The debut of SLEEK is the first ready-to-wear collection of designer dresses which incorporates shapewear technology in each garment. The debut capsule collection of SLEEK dresses are constructed of silk and lightweight stretch wool blends, with body-defining lycra technology discreetly hidden in the garments, designed to smooth, flatter, minimize, lift and shape any woman’s body.

From a sexy corset dress to a classic sheath day dress, to a strapless sophisticated party dress, the figure-flattering technology in each SLEEK garment will help to slim women’s most common insecure body areas; waist, hips, thighs and tummy without the need for separate, often uncomfortable, body-shapers. The SLEEK Collection launches this Spring with 12 dresses, 6 day and 6 night, a selection edited to take women-on-the-go from the office to a cocktail party or a first date feeling more confident about their bodies.

SLEEK is expected to debut in many major retailers including Lord & Taylor this Spring!
