Slips

[Guest CindyLouCovington]

Slips, once worn routinely by all females,and readily available wherever female clothing was sold, but in recent decades almost vanished, are apparently making a comeback. While they have always been available, for a long time you really have had to hunt for them. I was in Walmart recently and was surprised to see a selection of Vasarette slips and half ships available,inexpensively.As I was looking at them a black woman happened by and was equally surprised to see slips available again;she said that she had one from years ago, but that this was the first time in years she had seen them in a store.We agreed that there was nothing like the feel of a nylon slip under a dress or skirt to make you feel feminine.Ahd of course it helps to keep the dress clean,which was its original purpose.

I have a pretty good collection of slips that i wear mostly in the winter months or with a somewhat transparent outfit. They are great in the winter because they make another layer as well as feeling nice against the skin. I wear 1/2 slips for the most part but when i know i'll be out shopping or doing errands on a cold day i'll wear a long slip which can at times also double as a nightgown.

I'm gld to hear that they are becoming available again even though so many women only wear pants.

Hugs,

I have been looking around a bit recently but as yet found nothing instore locally that I fancy although I have not been everywhere. They are not common but the idea of one next to the skin appeals, as well as an extra layer to keep warmer. I will have to get one to try!

I am glad that they are coming back in fashion, I would love to have some half-slips to wear with my couple of skirts. We are in our winter rainy season here, and it would feel so nice to have a nice slip against my skin during these damp cool times. So feminine.

Hi Cindy,

Slips are great, I have a number of them from Far West, and Vanity Fair. Wear them under a pencil skirt and blouse, for my work outfits, comfy all day... or lounging about in just a full slip on a hot summer day....

My first real dress I bought was from GOODWILL.

I thing it was new and looked great. Was also inexpensive being it was from a donated clothing store.

It had a slip sewn inside it and think it was made that way. It felt so nice .

I recently ordered a dress from amazon and when I got it I loved it but the fabric was very thin.

I went to a walmart and yes they had slips and half slips.in white or black.

As this dress was black and blue I got the black full slip. I think it was like $15 US.

Now you cant see through my dress. YEAAAAAAA.

I love the feel of the nylon against my skin.

I dont know about european stores but in the US I haven't had any problems finding slips. Prices do very though.

Slips are required for some of my unlined skirts when worn over my clingy leggings.
