slip envy.

I'm currently in love with vintage lingerie, slips in particular. These photos are all from previous ebay auctions and etsy shops.

Pretty full slips...


Lovely half slips. I especially love the ones that have all the embellishments and frippery. That no one ever sees when your clothes are on!!


I've got this 1940s Advance pattern:


I think a bunch of vintage inspired slips in a variety of colors is in my near future. And just think how fabulous you'd feel knowing you had such pretty underwear on. It would be like a little secret.

  1. I love that red one (and who doesn't love some racy red underwear?).

  2. Oh, I'm so with you on this! I have a rather large collection of vintage slips. They don't fit me, I just love them and use them for inspiration.

  3. Oh! I love them, too!
    I have an old slip of my granny's that you would love.

  4. I love those slips. I need one like the 4th one to go under a skirt I am going to make.

  5. A girly-girl definitely needs such lucious slips under her dresses and skirts.

  7. I'm old fashioned enough that if I have on a dress or skirt I have on a slip. None of mine are nearly as pretty as these, though.
