The 24 Best Slip Dresses For Spring Weddings, Date Nights, & Beyond

There was a time when the slip dress was considered strictly bedroom attire — a hidden inner layer normally associated with curlers and fuzzy slippers — but the lingerie-inspired frock has shed its pajama moniker to become a bona fide going-out dress. Now, the closet staple comes in many iterations; from unique silhouettes to different cuts, there’s a whole world of slip dresses to see, in every shape, size, color, and pattern.

Nowadays, it can serve as a wedding guest dress, happy hour ensemble, and house dress. It's an acceptable purchase year-round because you can wear it on its own in the summertime, then layer it with a tee or turtleneck as it gets cooler, eventually pairing it with faux fur jackets and coats for those brisk winter days. For 24 elevated slip dresses that bring a new touch to daytime dressing, rather than a mood-lit bedroom, scroll on.
