Slips (Chemises?)

SAM55 — Tue, 28 Nov 2017 16:49:40 GMT

I wish QVC would offer slips. I think I must be from the dinosaur age, because no one I know wears them anymore. Seems like I'm always needing a nude or black knee length, above the knee, or longer and they are so hard to find! I hope someone from Breezies is reading this!

Found some last Summer at Kohl's: they were tucked into a little corner and I almost missed seeing them. Good Luck !

Vendors do not read these forums. You will need to post your request on their FB page and/or contact them threw their website.

I can't imagine there's enough demand for slips that QVC could sell enough of them in a day to make them worth TV time because as you said @SAM55 "no one wears them any more." Have you tried a local lingerie shop or even one of the department stores or discount stores? Seems as if I see them occasionally at Steinmart or Ross or even Marshalls.

I have several slips - at least one full, one half short, and one long. They've been at the back of a dresser drawer since I retired. That was 18 years ago! I may be forced to move next spring. If so, those slips will go to thrift if the elastic is even any good still or to trash. And no, even if QVC decides to try selling slips, that's not something I'll be buying.

See if Logo has something that'd work for you. I have 2 of the things she puts under stuff, feels like slip material to me. Never have worn them. Hated slips.

I have purchased half slips from Walmart. I have even ordered them online as sometime I couldn't find the right size, color and length in the store.

Google for other options. I'd try Amazon or eBay too.

Just the other day I was thinking, I wish I had a slip!

Then I remembered I had half slips or chemises?

I still wear pantyhose (which I hate) so I guess I'm a dinosaur too! 😆

I'm a dinosaur, too. I can't wear a dress or skirt without something underneath. I like the skimmies (slipshorts), by Jockey. Also, have you looked at The Vermont Country Store website? They have quite a selection of slips, chemises, camisoles, etc. Hope you find what you are looking for!

Try Her Room. Poster recommended their site to me.

Many options and better quality.

Great idea! Never thought of Vermont Country Store. There used to be a Vanity Fair at the outlets and they always had slips in every length, but they're gone now.

I wear slips all the time. I'm wearing a skirt with a slip today.

It makes me laugh when I see posters write that they don't know if slips are even made anymore. They eithert never wear dresses or they just don't care if you can see right through the dress/skirt.

Not all that long ago Jill B said on air that she didn't know if they even made slips anymore. Really?

I wear dresses or skirts almost daily to work. Many of them, in fact most of them, aren't lined, especially summer ones.

I have bought slips from National. There is a nice selection. And I have always been pleased with their stuff.

I too always wear a slip with a dress or skirt. They hang so much better! Vanity Fair was always my favorite, and I have enough to last my lifetime.

I got all mine from JCP. They have a good selection.

I never even wore one when I was younger and wore dresses. They seemed so unnecessary and uncomfortable. I'm from the mini skirt era and no one I knew wore them either. Now the few times I wear a dress - well don't want anything cumbersome underneath. I do wear pantyhose though as I find bare legs not that great looking especially now that I'm older.

I have purchased several slips from amazon.

I will wear slips especiallyif I'm wearing a skirt that is not lined. Don't care for the see through look!

@SAM55 I wear the Jockey slip shorts with dresses. A264463

They smooth out panty lines, are not hot on the body, keep the dress from clinging, provide modesty and are very comfortable.

I would guess the large department stores carry slips.
