How to make a vintage slip look more like a dress and less like underwear.
In the ever-evolving world of fashion, there's something irresistibly captivating about the allure of vintage slip dresses. They seem so effortlessly chic like something a French girl would just throw on herself before going out for a coffee. But at the same time slip dresses can be a risky business. Here is how to style them without looking like you're wearing underwear.
Layer It Up:
The beauty of a vintage slip dress lies in its simplicity, but that doesn't mean you can't play with layers. Throw on a chic leather or denim jacket to add a touch of contemporary coolness. The contrast between the delicate slip and the edgy outer layer creates a harmonious blend of old and new.
Prints Please:
While solid colors are undoubtedly elegant, don't hesitate to explore vintage slip dresses with prints. Polka dots, florals, or even a delicate lace pattern can bring an extra layer of charm to your ensemble. Just remember to keep accessories and additional layers simple to avoid overwhelming the look.
Footwear Finesse:
The right pair of shoes can make or break an outfit, and a vintage slip dress is no exception. For a casual look, opt for trendy sneakers and for more romantic look, swap them out for strappy sandals or pointed-toe heels to channel your inner retro glam.
Western Chic:
If you want to make your slip dress look more casual, try styling it with cowboy boots. It looks trendy and effortless while breaking the all-over lingerie vibe.
