If your holiday pieces are more skin-baring than your usual wardrobe, the best way to make them more modest is via a simple slip. Whether it’s a sheer silk maxi, a crochet mini or a lightweight linen midi, layering a slip dress underneath can instantly make you feel more comfortable. However, the slip you reach for depends on the look you’re after.

To make an outfit more modest, opt for a slip in the same shade as the dress you’re styling. Pay attention to length, though – you want the dress to be a little longer than the slip so it’s hidden subtly underneath. If you love the sheer look, a skin-toned slip will add this effect without leaving your knickers on show. Brightly coloured slips can be used to make a fashion statement – orange slips under white crochet dresses, for example, will add an extra element of interest.

This same thought process applies to trousers: choose cycling or shapewear shorts or leggings to make see-through trousers more modest.
