Summer is drawing to a close, which typically means embarking on the soul-crushing process of stashing your warm weather favorites until next year. But dry your eyes, because unlike those gladiator sandals and denim cutoffs, you can keep one of the most beloved hero pieces—the slip dress—in heavy rotation through the fall. In fact, we think this versatile piece looks even better paired with autumn knits and sculptural separates. Here’s how to cling to the dog days of summer, and look impossibly chic in the process.
Beat the Breeze
This diaphanous H&M slip dress with delicate straps and a mesh neckline looks effortlessly sexy when paired with a fuzzy, oversized cardigan. Cinch the look with a wide belt to define your waist, and team with a slouchy tote and ankle boots in russet leather.
