You may be a little confused by the slip dress as this was once a simple, yet somewhat sultry lingerie basic. Nowadays though, the satin slip dress is a full-blown wardrobe essential. In the past, these types of cowl neck, body hugging sheer dresses were the favoured item by celebrities on the red carpet, but now it's time for everyone to feel like royalty as the slip dress is becoming more and more popular. And on top of all that, the slip dress is surprisingly versatile. Have you ever struggled to pack a dress on holiday? Struggle no more, just grab yourself a slip dress and you'll find that this silky dress can be packed easily into the small spaces of your suitcase. Better yet, it can be dressed up or down.
Dressing up your slip dresses
With the wide variety of slip dresses available on NA-KD, you will find that there are a whole lot of options when it comes to dressing up this simple classic. We offer these dresses with a range of different hemlines - there is a midi slip dress as well as mini - different colours, neckline styles and prints. All of this means that you can mix and match your dress between day and nighttime wearing. For instance, if you're heading to a wedding, grab one of the full length slip dresses in a bright colour or pattern, or choose one that has one shoulder or a halterneck for a more elegant or elevated feel. Put on a pair of elegant strappy heels and your simple outfit is complete; it's just time for hair and makeup!
- Choose the silhouette carefully for formal wear
- Don't go too plunging when it comes to the neckline
Keeping the slip dress casual
Being able to wear a slip dress out and about on a daily basis is also a great option. These lightweight dresses are often made from satin, which means they are soft, comfortable and breezy. As they don't hug the figure, they are the perfect summer option, but you don't want to look like you're trying too hard. You can choose a shorter option though for casual wear, and pairing this up with a pair of converses or sneakers will help to give this a more casual look. Grab a cropped jacket if you think it's going to get a bit cold and you've got the cute yet girly look down perfectly. The second you need to dress it up, change up those shoes to a pair of heels and you're ready in a flash!
