It smoothes and has a very light hold. I have one very old half slip that I’ve held on to, but don’t like it under dresses. I haven’t worn skirts at all the last few years.&nbsp;<div><br /></div><div>(<a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.nordstrom.com/s/commando-classic-tailored-slip/3230128?origin=keywordsearch-personalizedsort&amp;breadcrumb=Home%2FAll%20Results&amp;color=250">https://www.nordstrom.com/s/co.....rsonalized</a>)</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slip-shorts-and-half-slip-recos#post-2411770 Wed, 29 Apr 2026 12:21:24 +0000 Cookie 2411770@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for this. I am always puzzled by the disappearance of the slip. Does no one else ever wear dresses that are too sheer or cling to tights? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slip-shorts-and-half-slip-recos#post-2411757 Wed, 29 Apr 2026 04:04:44 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2411757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, delurked! I'm an avid slip-wearer, so it's nice to know there are still good options available. My current faves are by Commando, full and half slips. I hadn't seen pettipants in years, but I used to like them as a slip alternative for some garments. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slip-shorts-and-half-slip-recos#post-2411745 Wed, 29 Apr 2026 01:03:46 +0000 Indigoprint 2411745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks , I rely on undergarments for comfort. Good to know the options </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slip-shorts-and-half-slip-recos#post-2411744 Wed, 29 Apr 2026 00:31:59 +0000 delurked 2411744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jaileen - I feel like I’m always hot, but these don’t add extra heat IMO. Not sure I’d say they are really cooling either.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slip-shorts-and-half-slip-recos#post-2411740 Tue, 28 Apr 2026 23:46:03 +0000 Angie 2411740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you! Appreciate the great reviews, <b>delurked </b>:)&nbsp;</p> <p>The Jockey Skimmies are ones I frequently suggest to clients. I'll suggest the other recommendations too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slip-shorts-and-half-slip-recos#post-2411739 Tue, 28 Apr 2026 23:43:56 +0000 JAileen 2411739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for posting this. &nbsp;Are the cooling slip shorts actually cooling? &nbsp;It gets pretty hot here in summer (not as hot as AZ, of course) so I might be interested. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slip-shorts-and-half-slip-recos#post-2411725 Tue, 28 Apr 2026 18:35:51 +0000 Roberta 2411725@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am also a fan of the jockey Skimmies, and in my opinion they make a nice full slip as well. I don't have much occasion for the slip, but it's nice to have it if needed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slip-shorts-and-half-slip-recos#post-2411723 Tue, 28 Apr 2026 16:57:28 +0000 Suz 2411723@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great reviews. I think every year someone here is searching for anti-chafing shorts. And you so right that slips are rarely available (or easily visible) at retail except I suppose in speciality lingerie shops, and possibly not even there.&nbsp;</p> <p>I still have some of my mother's old slips from the 60s! But I rarely have cause to wear them.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slip-shorts-and-half-slip-recos#post-2411722 Tue, 28 Apr 2026 16:44:55 +0000 delurked 2411722@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Peri, I know this is a pretty niche need these days, and everybody seems to like something different. My most important criteria was to reduce the static and not feel too hot.&nbsp;</p> <p>I have several linen dresses that in sunlight are not as opaque as I might prefer. This hedges against that and makes me not worry I'm showing more than intended. Anti chafing in the shorts is a bonus.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slip-shorts-and-half-slip-recos#post-2411721 Tue, 28 Apr 2026 16:40:29 +0000 Peri 2411721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for your reviews, this has been on my mind! Mostly because I'm seeing daily FB ads on cooling slip shorts from Thigh Society and Angie has mentioned that brand in the past. I haven't tried any because I rarely wear dresses, but I'm still curious. I'll be following this with great interest.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slip-shorts-and-half-slip-recos#post-2411720 Tue, 28 Apr 2026 16:23:13 +0000 delurked 2411720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I live in a dry climate and wear a lot of dresses and skirts. There have been years where I was not wearing slips, but I have come back around to them for comfort, modesty, and improvement in the way the clothing hangs. I had slips I wore since high school for decades, but eventually I needed some new items. A lot of what I saw in stores was too staticky and cheap feeling, plus this isn't a category very stocked at retail anymore.</p> <p>I found the brand Mancyfit on Amazon, and I've become a fan. I wear their pettipant/bloomers shorts and have recently purchased a half slip that is working well. I've also had good success with the cooling slip shorts from Jockey that I've gotten from Target. I did find the slip shorts in stores. They don't squeeze uncomfortably at the waist and the slip shorts are not compressing in any way. They just provide a nice layer for smoothing and anti chafing if needed. They are also not hot, which is important to me.&nbsp;</p> </p>
