A Season of Slip Dresses

The answer this autumn is a sensuous slip dress from JV. But, what was the question? Well, for instance...

How does one feel sexy yet warm for an evening at home? By pulling on a big cozy sweater over Olivia Von Halle’s Issa Hedonist Slip Dress in powder blue with black and gold leopard print. Grrrrr. Add a pair of marabou pom pom slippers and sashay off to the couch.

When is one’s jazzy new orange tweed blazer a cocktail wrap? When one drapes it casually over the Evergreen Bias Slip from Violet & Wren. It is just the right amount of dressy and a neat way to showcase the slip’s pattern of black, orange, purple, and green on a field of teal silk. Perfect with shiny high boots. Drop a shoulder to show off a racer-back yoke of black leavers lace.

What is black and gold and sheer all over? The incredible Melitza Lace Gown from Gilda & Pearl. Wear it alone, or as a cage for slinky basics. Love the drape that frees the waist while creating a flattering princess line..

Where have all the flowers gone? Violet & Wren provide a flash of floral with the Catkin A-line Slip. Its pink and gold blossoms promise a dreamy vacation to real or imagined sunshine.

Who could resist the femme fatale glamour of Vannina Vespirini’s elegant Moonlight Slip Dress in darkest navy with black lace inset at bust? Not us.

So, for a spellbinding fall, why not slip into this classic silhouette, in a cornucopia of inspired designs from Jane’s Vanity?
