The slip dress has proved to be one of 2016's breakout style staples. The day-to-night piece has been spotted on many a trendsetter, layered with a simple tee or dressed up for a night on the town. But Bella Hadid's latest take on the piece is a fresh look we have a feeling we'll be seeing everywhere in the coming months. The model gave the decidedly dressy piece a more casual spin, offering some inspiration for pulling off boudoir dressing during the day.
Hadid's simple nude slip dress served as the anchor for her outfit, but by adding more laid-back staples—a denim jacket and slip-on sneakers—the look felt more casual. Bella also belted her sleek dress with a contrasting belt, a trick that highlighted her waist (an ultra-flattering style trick) and helped give the sleek satin style a less formal feel.Try the trick yourself, and pair your favorite belt with a slip dress to give it a fresh feel.
