Do you wear Slips and/or Petticoats

No they are not remotely sexy just something practical to wear I don’t like clingy clothes.

I don't think they are old fashioned but more than that people can wear what makes them feel better. I guess see-through things are just a big no-no for me. I have a slip I sleep in, and it's made of modal, which is so comfortable to wear. I also would make sure none of my dresses were see-through if I wore them. I used to, but these days see myself in leggings and casual wear more. I find them quite pretty, comfortable, and ladylike!

I don’t possess one & I can’t remember the last time I wore one. I hated my waist being encumbered with elastic and waistbands : pants, tights, slip; skirt. I felt totally claustrophobic
I only wear a dress on high days & holidays and never a skirt. Comfort first all the way (mostly in Kit & Caboodle trousers)

I didn't know they could still be bought. I usually wear trousers and put a cami under a thin blouse or low neckline top I have invested in a few thermal vests.
Thinking back to childhood the layers were a vest, Liberty bodice,underskirt[petticoat], blouse and twin set with a thick woollen kilt and beige wool knee socks. The only part uncovered were our knees!!!!
My mother always asked for an underskirt as a present when she could no longer find a good selection, women's clothes were always lined for a better fit and warmth. Maybe fashion needs to change.

Yes of course! Wouldn’t dream of wearing a dress or skirt with possibly see-through material without one.

Haven't worn one for years summer too hot for any extra layers and either winter dresses are already lined or of a decent weight fabric.
I do wear quite a few dresses or skirts but then again cannot tolerate trousers in summer only shorts

I wear trousers all the time - but do occasionally wear a loose dress in Summer (only in the house). I dare not show my skinny legs to the world !

I have a few underskirts and vests, I am my mother's daughter :-)

I also never buy from amazon and shop in the high street mostly.

I haven’t worn one for many years. Like others, I have one in the drawer just in case, but not sure just in case will ever happen!

I wear an underskirt under a few unlined dresses to avoid static cling. I certainly wouldn’t wear them to bed, how weird! As for sexy, they have more fabric than many slip dresses so no.

A bit old fashioned now

Nothing to do with fashion! A necessity for me when I wear a sweater dress if I want it to hang well.

In my case Yammy, my first kilt was made with a Liberty bodice attached, to complete the look, fairisle jumper, fawn top hoes and Clark’s brown lace up shoes. ?

I have several slips, full length and waist. On the occasions that I wear a skirt or dress I always wear a slip, can't stand that clingy feeling of the dress/skirt fabric clinging to my tights and its. makes the garments hang so much better.
A proper slip bears no similarity to sexy lingerie either.......whatever put that idea in the OP"s head??

Some really interesting comments here, I didn't suggest that slips were sexy, in fact most of the ones I own are plain and practical, I also own a few silky ones with lace trim which are really pretty and "could be seen as sexy", I was merely asking the question so my conclusion is that slips aren't seen as sexy by the majority of you and I totally agree, just a practical garment

What’s old fashioned about wanting to look decent??
Remember Diana in that see-thru skirt? Bet she cringed every time she saw the photo.

A few items in my wardrobe are lined, and are so comfortable, and hang beautifully. I also have slips in a cool fabric, both half and full length, that I wear under anything that might be clingy or see through. I feel more comfortable with a slip under a dress - you don't feel seams, and the whole thing hangs better. How can that possibly be 'old fashioned' if the end result is comfort and a better look?

As I seldom wear anything but trousers the answer is no.

must be warm where you live, to be able to go topless.

Don't understand the sexy addition bit or using them as nightwear (although I suppose you could wear some as nighties if you want something thin) but yes, I do wear them with thin, unlined dresses. Helps the dress hang properly and stops knickers and bras showing through. M&S still sell them, I bought a skin tone one early in the Summer towear under a white dress.

..........."*are they a sexy addition to your lingerie or just to be used as nightwear?*"

Sexy? . I've never worn a petticoat or underslip.

No never worn one (maybe when I was at school)

I don't usually wear petticoats , but maybe they are a good idea if chilly .

If I'm wearing one of my fifties dresses then yes - I'll wear one of those big puffy petticoats made of net !

Used to wear them years ago for work when skirts and dresses were expected, but haven't worn one since. Mostly trousers/jeans/leggings nowadays thank goodness. I do have a lovely skirt for smart but it's lined.
On top its a cami if I'm likely to show my bra as I can't stand my undies showing: I'm a bit of a prude re that.
Don't understand why they should be sexy.

You, ve just reminded me I had one as well it was a right faff to get it off for P.E. Clarks lace-ups for winter and Clarks sandals for summer they were regulation school uniform and so hard they could have been made out of car tyres I remember the blisters well.

Haha welbeck?
I think of them as a 1950s thing and haven’t worn one for many years. Might give them another go.
I disagree about the sexiness. A pure silk black lace trimmed slip is rather sexy and what about Liz Taylor in “Cat on a hot tin roof”?
