What is a plain lining and why wear one?

A plain lining is a single-colour slip dress worn under dresses and tunics made from light or sheer fabrics such as chiffon. It adds coverage and helps the outer layer drape more smoothly, so the outfit looks neat and modest.

Sleeved or sleeveless lining?

Sleeved linings cover the arms under sheer sleeves. Sleeveless linings feel lighter and cooler on warm days or under opaque sleeves. For the lighter option, take a look at our sleeveless linings.

How do you choose the lining colour?

Pick a shade close to the dress or to your skin tone so it does not show through sheer fabric. Black and white are practical basics that work with most outfits. For more styles, browse the full lining collection.
