slipdresses
Sleek satiny sheaths
Slipdresses are lightweight dresses styled after the undergarment—typically with thin straps, a straight or bias cut, and silky fabric.
Originally lingerie worn beneath other clothing, the slip emerged as outerwear in 1990s fashion and has remained a wardrobe staple: She threw a cardigan over her slipdress.
