Full slip under dress or just give up?

[margaritasbythesea]

I've bought a summer dress that I love and look good in. Perfect colour for me and one I find very rarely. It's a soft grey blue.

It's a wrap dress. I live in windy West Wales so would normally never consider this but I do love the dress.

It also has a low wrap neckline. I don't usually mind this but it works itself so lox you can see the little bow at the top of my bra.

I've tried the size up but it just looks meh.

Can anyone recommend a good full slip that I won't mind flashing (because it will) or is this dress just more trouble than it's worth?

I would buy one of those thin longline vests from H+M and wear it underneath.

Rather than trying to pin it... try using a very small stud earring to hold it in place.

Fair point, although I would put it down to the fabric of the slip rather than humidity.

The only time I've had a problem with a skirt riding up was was walking across London Bridge (funnily enough). It was down to the lining in that case.

I have about a million of those long line H&M vests. Practically live in them. Wear them under my work uniform, under low-cut dresses, under jumpers in the winter etc. Actually have an entire drawer dedicated to them!

Thanks for your suggestions. I've bought one of the Marks and Spencer ones but I haven't been able to wear it out yet as it keeps bloody raining.

Have you got a link to the dress? -it sounds right up my street

Tiny stud earrings is a great idea!

I have a couple of uniqlo slips but they're very basic looking. Amazon seem to have quite a wide selection.

Here you go Teaseall. I don't think the M and S pictures show it well. It looks frumpy, the colours are wrong and the sleeves look like angel sleeves which they are not. I've taken a picture which I hope shows it better.

Ooh! Pretty dress!
