How to Style a Slip Dress for Any Occasion
Four ways to style one slip dress — from morning espresso to a long Mediterranean dinner. The most versatile piece in your wardrobe.
A slip dress is the most versatile piece in your wardrobe. The right one will carry you from brunch to a beach club to a candlelit dinner without ever changing. Here's how we style ours.
For Daytime
Pair The Riviera Maxi with raffia braided sandals, a wide-brim straw hat, and a woven straw bag. Layer a few delicate gold necklaces. This is the look that says "I'm running into town for an espresso, don't ask me to do anything important."
For The Beach Club
The slip dress as a swim cover-up is a permanent move. Throw it on over your bikini — we love it with The Mykonos Ring Bikini underneath — slide on toe-ring sandals, oval sunglasses, and a tortoise hair clip.
For Dinner
Same dress. Add strappy block-heel sandals, swap to a small shoulder bag, layer a pearl choker like The Marina Pearl Choker, and you're dressed for a long Mediterranean dinner with no effort.
For an Event
Add a tailored linen blazer over the top, structured heels, and statement earrings. Now the same slip dress is wedding-guest appropriate.
The Rule
One slip dress. Four outfits. This is what Emperielle is built for.
