If you’re looking for head-turning eveningwear, a silk slip is the ultimate designer investment, evoking the underwear as outerwear trend in luxurious style. 

Look for muted tones in light blue, or chocolate brown for a subtle shimmer, or vamp it up – making a nod to the on-trend seventies – with an champagne or dusty pink. 

If you’d rather leave more to the imagination, a midi or full-length dress in silk looks stylish and modest. If you want an edgier way to wear silk, try a mini length easy-fit dress and channel your inner 1990s diva.
