slipdress

Silky minimalist frock

A slipdress is a simple, lightweight dress styled after a slip—the undergarment women traditionally wore beneath dresses.

It typically features thin shoulder straps, a straight or slightly fitted silhouette, and falls to mid-thigh or knee length.

Originally lingerie-inspired fashion from the 1990s, slipdresses remain popular as casual or evening wear: She threw a cardigan over her slipdress.
