Help! Off to Dubai next week but my linen dresses are a bit thin so inappropriate! Where can I find some holiday wear?!

There are 1,302 of 'em at Next, OP 😃 Few are see-through, and many even have full coverage.

I also second the slip above. Happy shopping!

I don't think that underwear is at all appropriate

Sorry. I thought you were recommending the slip INSTEAD of a dress.

I had thought of a slip but not sure if it would make me feel warm? Saying that going to be in a lot of aircon places so would be ok. Thanks.

Reading the reviews, people say how much cooler they feel wearing the slip than without as it has some special technology. They do feel very cool to the touch. And yes to wearing under a dress not as a dress!

John Lewis have a few, none of them are see through Linen Summer Dresses | John Lewis & Partners. Second the suggestion of a slip, if you get that M&S one they actually cool you down rather than provide heat!

Slips are so cooling and stop your dress sticking to you.
