Slip Into Summer: Styling the Return-to-the-90s 'It' Dress
Slip Into Summer: Styling the 90s 'It' Dress

There's more to this classic look than simply wearing your nightwear as daywear. Try it with a T-shirt or a silky bomber – and always with a slick of lipstick.

How to Style the 90s Slip Dress

The slip dress is making a major comeback this summer, but styling it right is key. Instead of treating it like lingerie, think of it as a versatile canvas for layering and accessories.

Look 1: Edgy and Casual

Pair a simple slip dress with a white T-shirt underneath for an effortless daytime vibe. Add chunky sandals and a crossbody bag to complete the look.
