Slip Dress
Originally worn as a sleep garment or undergarment, this dress—usually made of very lightweight fabrics such as silk, satin or a thin cotton—has spaghetti straps and a low-cut neckline and can be "slipped" on and off over the head.
The slip dress is similar to the sheath and will work on all shapes, depending on the placement of the straps.
