What era are slip dresses from?
Slip dresses were popular during the 1990s (although slips were commonly worn as undergarments decades prior to this era). In 1993, supermodel Kate Moss made headlines by stepping out in a super-sheer one, and musician Courtney Love introduced slip dresses to the grunge fashion scene. In 2016, Burberry and Saint Laurent included slip dresses in their collections as a nod to the 1990s. Shop a variety of slip dresses on 1stDibs.
