A Visual History Of The ’90s Slip Dress

The iconic staple looks so right in 2017

August 18, 2017

There’s no denying the extreme ‘90s presence that has crept into every aspect of this summer’s fashion, with brands like Tommy Hilfiger and Vetements each playing their respective parts to renew some serious denim and normcore throwbacks. But one of the biggest sartorial successes of the ‘90s, and the summer of 2017, is the slinky, sexy slip dress. Decades ago, it was made popular by designers like Calvin Klein and Narciso Rodriguez, who famously dressed every big name super model, along with Carolyn Bessette on her wedding day—which is should be the first image that comes up if you Google “slip dress.” Here, we provide endless inspiration for you to style your 2017 versions from the fashion icons who did it best.
