A keyhole dress is a dress that has a small hole, usually a little and can be larger sometimes around the chest area. While some of the dresses with the larger keyholes look sexy, the others with small keyholes look stylish and elegant. It can be seen as a tiny little detail in the dress that makes the outfit look a little more eye-catching. To better show you how to style them, I've put together a list of some of the best keyhole costume ideas for you. Let's check them out now.
Navy blue keyhole Peplum Bodycon dress
This is a very typical keyhole dress that has a very small keyhole just below the neck. You can imagine that this navy blue peplum bodycon dress would still have looked beautiful without the keyhole, but no one was as interesting as the keyhole. To design this dress you can simply wear it with silver colored heels with open toe heels and the outfit is perfect for a cocktail party.
Black Choker Neck Keyhole Skater Dress
Here is a dress with much larger keyholes. The dress is almost like a deep black skater dress with a v-neck and a black choker attached to it. So sometimes I feel that the keyhole dress is just a little too steep. Regardless, this was an extremely beautiful and sexy cocktail dress. Just wear it with black heels with open toe to complement the outfit with elegance.
Short-sleeved keyhole Bodycon Mini dress
Here's another great keyhole dress. It is a short-sleeved bodycon mini dress. Simply pair it with silver colored heels with open toe patches and a silver cuff bracelet to complement this sexy and minimal outfit.

Now back to a typical keyhole dress. Here is a more casual black keyhole, a line dress that you can wear both for work, for hangouts or even for a cocktail party.

Black sleeveless lace dress
A keyhole design, when done correctly, can actually improve the trim of a dress. For example, for this black sleeveless lace dress, the keyhole detail can actually make the shoulders look narrower. As a result, this dress can make you look slimmer and slimmer. To complement the costume, simply pair the dress with silver open toe heels.

This is a wonderful two-layer dress with beautiful details. The inner layer is a white halter-keyhole mini-shift dress, while the outer layer is a semi-shiny lace dress.
