Women Wearing Slips

Post Reply New Topic

Why do women wear slips under their dresses or skirts?

Sometimes because the dress fabric is thin or light coloured and you can see through it without a slip. Some fabrics cling and wearing a slip stops that. Some fabrics can be scratchy and a slip gives a layer of protection. And if it’s cold, a slip provides warmth. If my skirt or dress is not lined, I generally wear a slip.

I remember my mom saying she needed a slip after sewing a dress because it was too transparent to go out and wear to a social event.

very surprising theme,
i thought you all were thinking wearing no underpants under a skirt was the norm
in europe slips are briefs

In UK they are thin (not transparent) underskirt things as above.

Now you mention it: I think there is a type\design of male knickers called Slips.
