The 11 Best Slip Skirts That'll Be Your All-Season Staple
There's no denying their practicality.
Welcome to The Essentials, our weekly series highlighting a must-have classic, key to building a timeless, pulled-together closet.
Historically worn as négligées and as underpinnings for clingy skirts and dresses, the straightforward slip-style skirt is now officially considered to be the main attraction in 2022. This is great news, considering the fact that I've been looking for a way to stop styling my favorite denim now that spring is finally here. Goodbye, uncomfortably stiff denim! Hello flowy, easy-to-style slip skirts.
Thanks to figure-flattering silhouettes that help achieve a pulled-together ensemble, slip skirts are as welcome in the office as they are on a night out with your partner. Better yet, styling them is also super simple. Keep your ensemble straightforward with a skirt that comes in an single all-over color, or take a more classically feminine route in a spring skirt dusted with flower prints or polka dots. I would even go so far as to say that a classic, sleek black midi skirt is just as versatile in your closet as your usual pair of black office-approved pants. Some slips come with matching tops, but a basic white T-shirt, tank top, or button-down would also suffice if you're running late and need to get dressed in five minutes or less.
