This review is based on the product after it has been washed.

My verdict:

This slip dress/top is a great basic for your wardrobe. It's incredibly soft, stretchy and comfortable to wear on its own or layered underneath sheer tops and dresses.

Fit & Sizing:

Long enough? As a slip, yes! It measures 23 inches / 58 cm from underarm to hem and fits like an ultra-mini dress on me at 5'10", with plenty of stretch to pull it down for a little extra length.

How does it fit? Close-fitting and body-hugging, with adjustable straps to help position the neckline.

Measure between sizes? I'd size down for a snug fit. I'm between AU 8–10 and the size 8 fits comfortably, with plenty of stretch.

You are a true match to the Big W size guide: Stick with your usual size for a comfortable fit, or size down if you prefer a more bodycon look.

Fabric & Comfort:

Stretchy? Very! the fabric is made out of Nylon and elastane (exact percentages unavailable).

Feel: Super soft, smooth and lightweight, with plenty of stretch.

All day comfort? Absolutely! I wore this for a full day of filming without any discomfort.

Care & Practical Details:

Creasing: Hardly any! The stretchy fabric bounces back into shape.

Washing: Max. 20-30°C, using 400-600 rpm spin.

Drying: Avoid tumble-drying

Ironing: DO NOT IRON. Steam carefully to remove creases.

See through? Not very, but I'd recommend seamless underwear close to your skin tone to avoid anything showing through.

Ajustable straps: Yes
