Red shoes no knickers - what we wear under our summer dresses

Red shoes no knickers - what we wear under our summer dresses

So, you've found the perfect dress for those hot summer days, if they ever appear, but now comes the age-old question: what on earth do you wear underneath? You don't want any fashion faux pas ruining your look, to show or not to show...

Fear not, we've got you covered (literally).

The camisole

Camisoles are like the Swiss Army knife of undergarments, think Stella Mccartney.  They come in all shapes, sizes, and fabrics, our favourite is always silk, although we rather love this rainbow number, making them the perfect choice for any summer dressing.  On their own or under a garment, we wouldn't be without a few in our wardrobe.   Whether you opt for a silky smooth cami or a lacy number, you'll feel comfortable and stylish all day long.

Silk: Luxurious and Lightweight

For those special occasions when you want to feel extra luxurious, silk is the way to go. A vintage silk slip or chemise will glide effortlessly under your dress, or indeed as a dress itself; chic. 

Lace Body Stocking: Dare to Bare

Feeling a bit daring? A lace body stocking is the perfect choice for when you want to show a little skin without revealing too much. The intricate lace details add a touch of romance to your look, while providing the coverage you need to feel confident and fabulous, they look great under a trouser suit.  

So, next time you slip into that summer dress or trouser suit, how about a little lace rainbow number...
