Why buy from Blackstrad?
At Blackstrad, we’re redefining concert attire for today’s musicians with a curated collection of modern, minimalist, and performance-ready designs. Our in-house line, Blackstrad by Mercedes Smith, is crafted by a musician, for musicians—understanding the demands of performing and the need for comfort under stage lights. Each piece is designed from eco-conscious, lightweight fabrics like Lyocell, a temperature-regulating fiber derived from renewable eucalyptus, so you can keep cool and perform with ease.
Our offerings go beyond our own line. Blackstrad also provides a handpicked range of brands that meet standard concert black dress codes, creating a mix-and-match capsule wardrobe that supports both all performing musicians, from students to and professionals. From elegant long-sleeve wrap tops and satin blouses to minimalist skirts, tux pants, and formal black pants, each design prioritizes comfort, movement, and style.
For ensembles and groups, we offer 30% off our in-house Blackstrad brand for orders of 20 or more pieces, making it easy for choirs, orchestras, and bands to outfit their members in elegant, eco-friendly concert black. Made with sustainable fabrics and ethical manufacturing practices, every item in our in-house collection—from women’s tux pants to classic black tops—is designed to look polished and professional while aligning with sustainable values.
Say goodbye to restrictive, outdated formalwear, and step into concert attire designed for today’s classical musicians. With Blackstrad, you’ll look incredible, feel unstoppable, and take the stage with confidence.
