What is a dress clip?
1 Answer

A dress clip is a type of pin that typically accents a piece of clothing and can be styled on either the shirt collar of a jacket or the straps of a dress. Dress clips were originally worn in pairs, but today, a dress clip can also be worn as a brooch. Shop a range of vintage dress clips from some of the world’s top boutiques on 1stDibs.
