    Tamara, maybe the thrill has worn off for GG's and Slips. I love the feel of a nylon full slip. I have a few 18" full slips that I wear with panties and pantyhose, underdressed at work. Nice feeling.

    I suppose that I'm one of the old fashion gals but I wear a slip every day that I wear a skirt or dress. This is about 95% of the time.

    I wear a slip even when the skirt or dress is lined. What's the harm?

    Slips are NOT dead! Just walk through WalMart, Target, Sears, J.C.Penney, Victoria's Secret or your favorite lingerie shop!! They are there! Half in various lengths, full slips, plain and very lacey!
    I needed one last year for a Medieval Lady Costume, it was unlined, no problem! Walked into WalMart, came out with a white full slip! Even in my size 18-20!
    My wife has 4-5 slips that she uses under her unlined skirts. She hasn't used a full slip in ages, but that is because most of the time she likes to mix and match her skirts and tops.
    As an Office Manager, she dresses up every day! Only wears pants when it's cold out or we are going to a car show!!

    I remember my mom and sisters wearing full slips under their dresses and skirts. I also loved the feel of a slip against my legs but what I enjoyed most was the feeling of the nylon slip and the nylon panties swishing as I walked or "slipping" as I sat. I used to do the laundry for my family and don't recall seeing any slips from my wife or my daughters in the hamper. My wife had slips for special occasions but I doubt my daughters even knew they existed. I still have a nice collection of half slips and wear them even if the dress or skirt has one built in.

    Betty,
    That's because it's so old fashioned. My wife even handed down her last 1/2 slip to me awhile back. I was thrilled!!

    slips

    gee i havent stoped to think about wearing a slip in a long time. i have 4 or 5 cute ones but they have been buried for quite a while
    I am a beautiful, young victorian style lady. Demure, gentle, kind and giving. I love to be feminine in lace and intricate delicate patterns flowing skirts, the kind of sexy that makes you desperate to know what I'm hiding underneath!

    Bingo. People might say slips are unpopular, they never wear them, no modern lady would be caught dead wearing one, etc.

    The reality?

    If they didn't sell, the major chains wouldn't sell them anymore. But, they do. Obviously they sell. People aren't buying them to take up closet space, so obviously they are being worn.

    I love the feel of slips, full legnth, especially as a comfort item after dinner, watching TV. The wife and I have recently bought matching ones, and the price was very reasonable. I think I'll wear mine tonight, she always snuggles with me when I do.

    Walmart, Target, Sears, JC Penny, discontinued slips in store about 6 months ago. Kmart still has a limited number.

    I like to wear a bra and panties and a slip while at home. A very comfortable trio while lounging or doing household chores.

    I don't know why they don't wear slips, any more than I don't know why they don't wear stockings. I guess they don't get the same sensual feeling from this clothing as we do, and all I can say is it's a shame. Here we are who would love to wear these articles of clothing everyday, but are denied this opportunity because of society, and yet many females today choose not to wear them. I guess the old adage that life isn't fair applies here.

    I remember wearing my mothers slips and I loved the way it felt against my nylon covered shaved legs when I was a teen. I believe this thread has motivated me to purchase my own slips as I remember how I loved the feel.

    Tee hee you got a point but me thinks there are alot of CDs out there buying them cause not one of my friends would do and I can't remember the last time I had to wear one. They were worn for practical reasons and because modern garments dont call for one now I suppose most people think why bother.
    On the subject of stockings, well I used to wear them all the time because they were more comfortable than tights, but now they have invented pull ups why wear an uncomfortable suspender belt.

    I know you ladies think its sad, but you got to remember that women dont always feel like dressing just to please men. And ladies, if I came on here and started going on about how men dont wear suits any more and thats really sad youd not be best pleased with me. I love to see a smart guy dressed in a two or three peice it really turns my head, but hey if they choose to wear lingerie instead thats fine by me.
    take care

    Need to let us know....

    Maxi,
    Then the stores haven't told the ones here in the midwest of the decision. They were proudly displayed in our local WalMart last night when I ran through for some cough medicine for my wife.

    I remember when they were a must. I love them but I don't have any. I don't have any thing that needs them maybe in the future. I'll cross that bridge when I get a dress that needs one.

    Stockings and pantyhose both are actually making a small rebound. It's not a big rebound, but women are beginning to realize bare legs aren't as sexy, attractive and comfortable as the movie/TV stars made it out do be. Fashion runways are seeing more sheer hosiery now too. The decline of hosiery is over. It will be a very, very long time before hosiery is ubiquitous as it was in the 70s again, if ever, but the decline is over.

    I'm wondering who is buy all of those slips. I think I don't know a single GG/CD/TS that wears a slip.

    Maybe because with just the right back lighting you can give a hint of what lies beneath without showing it? Besides it slides around too much under the skirt

    [SIZE="3"]The very first item I tried on of my moms was a full slip....I was about 6 or 7...Both parents were working and I had an hour or so till they got home after I got home from school..Something had "called" me to her room...I found that slip....and knew I HAD to try it on...Nothing has ever matched that first feeling against my skin...I love slips...but like it was said in some earlier posts...With modern fabrics...and lined skirts/dresses...a slip is not necessary... But it doesn't change the fact that I still love them..Sometimes just lounging around and enjoying a hot chocolate while watching a movie in the evenings... [/SIZE]
