Slip skirts weren’t always destined for solo wear. Originally designed as an undergarment over a century ago, slips have shifted from a hidden hero to a silhouette that deserves to be seen. The 1990s pushed slip skirts into the mainstream, made from satin, silk and nylon, in bias cuts and trimmed with lace – and they’ve since become a well-loved staple among the celebrity set. While lightweight in their construction, slips can also be utilised throughout autumn, with slouchy V-neck sweaters, blazers and bomber jackets alike.
