These are the most beautiful lingerie dresses for spring and summer evenings

It is probably the garment that best defines the aesthetics of the 90s decade. In the movie ‘Clueless’ (Out of wave), released in the year 95, the character of Cher, a millionaire teenager obsessed with shopping at the mall, has a brilliant conversation with her father that sums up the change in mentality very well ( and wardrobe) from that time: Mel (Cher’s father): What are you wearing?/ Cher: A dress./ M: Who says that?/ C: Calvin Klein./ M: Well, it’s underwear. Go upstairs and put on something.

The lingerie dress, or the slipis the epitome of minimalist style which then began to dominate. It is also impossible to talk about this type of dress and not refer to Kate Moss. The British model was responsible for popularizing it, thanks to the beautiful design of minimalist lines she wore to the CFDA awards that same year. The characteristics of the slip are unmistakable: it is a piece of satin or satin, with a flowing and light image, usually in one color, with super-thin straps and oblique cut. The bias technique consists of cutting the fabric diagonally so that the weave of the thread loosens and the fabric conforms organically to the body as it falls, minimizing sewing elements.

John Galliano once said that the lingerie dress should be “like a second skin for women”, and in 1996, while still working for Dior, created from it one of the most famous models in history for Lady Di , silk and lace in a navy blue hue. So there was no supermodel, actress or character of the time more or less akin to the world of trends that opposed wearing the garment in question. The lingerie dress has now become an indispensable timeless basic in the women’s wardrobe… Doesn’t yours have one yet? Here’s a selection of ten designs you’ll love to showcase.
