After a couple of seasons, the lingerie-inspired style is still a fashion trend; the stylists from all over the world create their own versions of this style. In 1994, Calvin Klein has presented for the first time the layered slip-dress on the podium. After 10 years, Francisco Costa tried to repeat Calvin Klein’s success.
The lingerie-inspired style – a 90’s comeback, maybe even of the yearly 2000s, the combined layered slip dress isn’t an exception. Thanks to the silk and laces, the dress creates a delicate and sexy look. The fact that this layered wear is still lingerie somehow confuses and stops many women from wearing it. That’s why I decided to share with you my own vision of this trend, and reveal the secrets of the creation of different looks based on this fashion trend.
I have picked this look for the presentation of the final works of young designers from the Technical University of Moldova. For this outfit I have combined a slip dress with a white t-shirt and a pair of classic sandals. Theslight layering of thisoption balances the sexuality, creating a daytime semi-casual look. Among the high-heeled shoes, I have added to the look a splashy accessory – a small beaded bag. In this outfit, the number of accessories and the details control the level of elegance and stylishness.
This outfit is easily converted into an evening one – just by baring the shoulders. In addition, you can add a light transparent blazer or a kimono to the outfit. You can make this combination an everyday look by changing the high-heeled sandals with a pair of flat shoes or sneakers. I also love the street style looks with a leather coat or a bomber jacket over the slip dress, paired with a pair of rough Converse or Dr. Martens shoes. An interesting combination for the women that are not afraid of attention is the slip dress over a pair of jeans, a t-shirt and a pair of high-heeled shoes. There is an important RULE in the creation of lingerie-inspired looks – you cannot wear big accessories, such as massive earrings or necklaces because they can add an irrelevant touch of triviality.
Actually, there are many different ways to wear this trend; it depends on your mood, style and the level of confidence.
