If there’s anything that has been making us very happy this October – besides PSLs – it’s that our favorite summer staple is here to stay. In a revival of the ‘90s trend, slip dresses have made a major come back this year. Slinky, minimal and effortless, the It dress is here to stay. Layering is key to making the dress work for fall, and here are some of our favorite looks.
1.
Keep it Monochrome
A sleeveless, high-neck jumper works perfectly with this maxi-dress, playing down its dressiness and creating an ensemble that’s effortlessly chic. Keeping it strictly monochrome ties the pieces together.

Play with Pastels
With designers such as Ulla Johnson and Delpozo bringing forth pinks and yellows on the FW16 runways, don’t relegate your pastels to the bottom of your summer wardrobe! Layer a ribbed white top under a pretty midi, and finish the look with some rose-gold details.
