The widow dress by Howl is a pretty simple little black dress with a beautiful back that adorns a multitude of lace straps over a low back cut.

The lace straps on the widow dress hang off the back and create somewhat of an [edgy look](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wednesday-capsule) with a very [delicate and romantic touch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honeys-opaline-blouse). The asymmetrical hemline adds that little extra something to the dress and completes the whole look. Check out the widow dress by Howl in the gallery above!
