Why the White Slip Dress Is a Bride’s Best Friend

When your big day arrives, it’s understandable that you’ll be hyper-focused on one main dress, but what about the actual wedding centerpiece dress? Is there something that can be worn with many styles and suitable for every season? Every step (and event) along the way, a white slip dress is every bride’s secret weapon. After all, when it comes to your wedding attire, you need to consider more than just the ceremony: the bridal shower, bachelorette party, rehearsal dinner before the big moment, and the post-vow festivities that follow, all of which require some bridal style. Enter the slip dress. Versatile and easy to style, these silk pieces are the perfect combination of effortless elegance and understated appeal.
