Fashion trend: The slip dress
A fashionable feature of the 90’s, is the slip dress and it is making an effortless impression as this season’s must-have item. Alexander Wang, Burberry and Paco Rabanne have all featured this classic dress in their latest collections.
It can be quite daunting trying to wear a dress which quite frankly looks like lingerie. Here are some fantastic tips so that you can wear the slip dress with a new found confidence.
It can be quite daunting trying to wear a dress which quite frankly looks like lingerie. Here are some fantastic tips so that you can wear the slip dress with a new found confidence.
Keep it cool, relaxed and simple. Try wearing a basic black slip dress with thin spaghetti straps and style it with strappy sandals.
There are hundreds of ways to wear a slip dress but one of the simplest and most classic ways to be styled daytime, you can wear turtleneck pullovers long sleeve shirts, blouses or basic shirts underneath your slip dress. If you're not prepared to go braless then a T-shirt worn underneath will give you the coverage you need.
Take your dress to dinner by wearing with an open cardigan. I really like the contrast and the mix of materials. For maximum effect add a pop of colour. Rock this elegant look with a pair of this season's sexy mules.
The slip dress lends itself extremely well to layering, and I could easily wear one underneath a jumper, or over a t-shirt.
Length is key. Too short and it looks too close to sleepwear; midi or floor-length looks more modern. Try wearing one under a skirt or another dress so you can see a bit of lace poking out underneath the hem. Or just opt for a silk camisole worn under a biker jacket with jeans.
Don’t be afraid to hide that waist, grab a belt, wrap it around the slip dress and show off your features.
The cut is key, anything on the bias is usually really flattering as it hugs the small part of your waist and skims over your hips and a good fabric is essential, too, a good quality silk will smooth out lumps and bumps, not accentuate them.
Here are a few chic slip dress pieces that will ensure you are on trend this season.

How to wear Long sleeve Dresses
Long-Sleeve Dresses Are Still Cute
Whether you’re a fan of the trend or not, there’s no denying that long sleeve dresses are everywhere this season. I love them because you can skip an extra layer like a cardigan or blazer, it is also a versatile addition to any woman's wardrobe. The long-sleeves are ideal for winter, as well as for transitional weather days.
Long-sleeve dresses make for automatic outfits, keep you warm, and cover your arms if you happen to dislike them. Paired with tights, a chic coat and a pair of booties, a long-sleeve dress (or three) is essential for a balanced winter wardrobe. Check out my favourites here.

Dexter Simmons - On The Runway @ Art Hearts Fashion NYFW 2017
Even after editing these 25 or so pictures of the DEXTER runway show from Dexter Simmons. I still can't decide how much of this range is wearable; and how much is the pure showmanship that helps sell the shorts, tee shirts, singlets, caps and jackets that are the backbone of Streetwear sales. And I'm not even sure any of this is for sale but I did see a woman in a DEXTER singlet shirt in the queue to go into the show so I imagine the basics will be out there - they are pretty out there already so you certainly wont miss them! Continues below..
I love that Simmons seems fearless in his appropriations, I mean who mixes boxing shorts with Goth? I mean really, who? He's mixing on season Camo, Heavy Metal, Punk, freakey 70's Bubble Gum Card/Astrology, graffics illustrations by Caitlin Mattisson; patches from 1970's icons of rock and well, whatever.. that bondage/batman black jacket and hood - with little ears; was that JUST for GOTHAM? The red lips and fangs motif that appears as patches or large on hats, sleeves, shirts and very large on the back of jackets seems to riff on both the Rocky Horror Picture Show and The Rolling Stones..I certainly hope Simmons gets his trickier pieces off the runway and into the stores. I for one would love to see all these designs out on the street. Check the shots below - Big thanks to White Caviar Life for this superb engagement, go check them out straight after you are done here - Now on with the pictures! PS finally back on Instagram.. or Follow on Facebook!
