GMA How To Style A Slip Dress

In an effort to make our wardrobes work a little harder for us, we're styling one closet staple four different ways.

The staple, an effortless silky black slip dress, is perfect to have hanging in your closet year-round. It can be dressed up or down, worn minimally on warmer nights and layered up for cooler nights. Plus, it's a no-frills style that's as comfortable as it is chic.

We're starting with a 100% washable silk slip dress from Quince and styling it for everything from a weekend hang or a night out to a snuggly movie night on the couch. We've paired it with other cozy pieces for fall and shopped for accessories to help complete each look.
