1 Item 5 Ways | The Slip Dress

Creating 5 ways to wear 1 item comes an exercise in creativity. If you find yourself wearing your dresses in the same way every time, we challenge you to play around w/ more imaginative styling options.

A trendy “must-have” this season is the slip dress. We aim to show you that this seemingly one-way dress can be styled up & down for any occasion as well as transcend seasons!

Linen Luncheon – Try layering your slip dress over a pair of linen pants for a casual spring or summer look. Here, we chose white, but you don’t have to shy away from a printed dress or a pop color pant.

Camo Queen – For a fun evening look, try belting your slip dress for waist definition, & layer on a casual oversized jacket. In this case, the camo jacket plays down the fanciness of the slip dress. It allows for feeling dressed up w/out trying too hard.

Lace-y Layers – When seeking a more modern twist, try tucking your dress into a pencil skirt & leave the hem peeking out! This look is eye catching & even office appropriate for those hot summer days!

Major Blazer – Falling just below the knee & lacking a structured silhouette, we paired the slip dress w/ a boyfriend style blazer for a bit more dimension & flat sandals to keep it fresh yet refined.

Unlikely Athleisure – Your slip dress can even be worn in a sporty way! Here we layered two dresses over one another & slipped on some high top kicks for an unexpected athletic look. I wouldn’t recommend working out in it though! ;)

Try to look at things from a different perspective. You might be surprised & start seeing a multitude of options – this applies to the world beyond our closets as well ;)
