Silky Slip Dresses Are Festival Material

Here’s how the Coachella crowd are styling this slinky number.

Aside from stellar performances by Ariana Grande, Janelle Monae, Childish Gambino and more, plus a partial ‘NSync reunion, the first weekend of Coachella brought us some impressive style inspo.

While there were a lot of lace bralettes worn as tops and bodysuits styled with not much else, our favourite festival looks involved a simple slip dress. As seen on Aussie model Shanina Shaik and her bestie Jas Tookes, the humble silk slip has proven itself to be one versatile wardrobe staple.

Cinch the waist with a belt and throw on some white boots, or your favourite sneakers, and you’ve got yourself an easy Coachella outfit. Then swap your shoes for a pair of strappy stilettos and work the look at your next evening event.

It’s not just a summer style either; layer it with a tee or fitted knit for wintry warmth and top with the fluffiest coat you can find.
