Few items are as effortless as a slip dress. While the appeal lies within its simplicity, we’re of the mind to get creative and rethink the hero piece every now and again. This season, exuberant trends run the gamut from playful handbags to distinctive jewelry, many of which lend themselves to innovative outfit formulas you likely hadn’t thought of before.
In the spirit of inventiveness, we’re spotlighting an affordable slip dress from one of our favorite eco-friendly labels, Everlane, and showing you four different ways to wear it throughout summer. You may have thought you had your slip dress formula down pat, but we’re willing to bet these fresh combinations will inspire you.
Your Summer Slip Dress, 4 Ways
Layer a linen top over a silky slip for instant polish. Square-toe sandals, a sleek bag and a chain necklace guarantee a modern finish.
Yellow and purple make for a uniquely punchy palette—we love this combo for cocktails, wedding-guest attire or date night.
For a street-style aesthetic, try a linen blazer and sneakers with your simple slip. Keep things summer-centric by adding a beaded bag and unique earrings into the mix.
Think outside the box and style your slip as a camisole—it easily layers underneath a fuller midi skirt (sans bunching or weird lines). Ladylike accessories temper the vivid palette.
