What would you wear under this dress?

[lostfrequencies]

I've bought this dress for a party next month and I am really happy with it. However, it ties up on the inside and then on the outside on the other side (does that even make sense!?) and when I walk / if it's windy I'll be in fear of flashing my pants. Any suggestions for what I could wear underneath? I've never worn any type of slip before - is that what's needed here or am I best off getting a black tube skirt? TIA!

Couple of small black safety pins so it does not flap open all the way?

I have a similar style dress, I'm planning to wear a black slip skirt underneath it. Less clingy than a tube skirt would be so the dress will flow better and it won't ride up. I got mine from M&S, they do lots of different lengths

A lovely bake slip. Something to unpeal to later for sexy time

Black!!

I would wear thick tights, a full slip, a vest and possibly a polo neck. But that's maybe overkill 😆
(Oh, and a cardigan on top too)

Thanks everyone! I think I'll go for Peach's suggestion and head to M&S.

Oh dear Devil do you hate the dress that much 😂

Oh no lostfrequencies, the dress is lovely! I just tend to wear many many layers unless the temperature is in the mid 20s

I buy slips from M&S - the only ones that don’t cling or ride up. I’d wear a black slip under this

I have a black half slip from M&S which has a split in it but it's probably older than you.

Windy? It’s a party. I think the risk of knicker flash would be minimal. Just go for best plain black knickers. Amything else is likely to be too bulky and ride up.

Um yes starlight, windy. The party isn't exclusively indoors.

Thanks for the advice everyone.

I would still go for the plain black knix. Being dark they won’t notice even when the wind blows and slips crinkle underneath. Enjoy your party.

Wrap dresses are a bugger for exposure in the slightest breeze. Either safety pons or sewing in a couple of little poppers along the edge for security are what I do.

I thought this too, but it's outside also? I guess our OP has to walk to the venue, too.

Enjoy the paaarrtaaay, darling!

You can get tiny clear plastic snaps cheaply and they are easy to apply, better then safety pin, which would be visible.

I’d go for a full slip rather than just a half one as wrap dresses are very prone to flashing everything - top and bottom - and it would make you feel more secure.
