What is the point of a slip dress?

1 Answer

The point of a slip dress depends on the wearer. Some people like slip dresses because the narrow straps are comfortable in hot weather. Others love how easy it is to layer jackets and cardigans over the dresses or simply find the style flattering. Shop a collection of slip dresses from some of the world’s top boutiques on 1stDibs.
