Bamboo slips for women

A slip is the invisible base that makes a dress more comfortable to wear. Here you will find bamboo slips for women from Copenhagen Bamboo and Boody in black and skin tone. A bamboo slip puts a soft layer between your skin and your dress, so the fabric falls better, does not cling to your legs and does not show through. At the same time bamboo is breathable, so it is comfortable to wear all day.

Skin tone or black slip

The colour decides how invisible the slip will be. A skin tone slip is the right choice under light and thin dresses, because it does not show through the fabric. In our range the colour is called tan at Copenhagen Bamboo and nude at Boody. A black slip goes under dark dresses and skirts, where a light colour could be seen. Many women end up with both, so there is always one that suits the dress of the day. Read more in our guide to the nude slip.

A slip for a sheer dress

If you have a dress that is a little too sheer to wear on its own, a slip solves the problem without changing the look of the dress. Choose a colour close to your skin tone under light fabrics and black under dark ones. The length should match the dress, so the slip does not peek out at the hem. Boody's slip reaches mid thigh, so under a long sheer dress it covers the upper part of the legs. We have gathered more advice in a slip for a sheer dress.

The difference between Copenhagen Bamboo and Boody

Copenhagen Bamboo has a slip with side seams and thin straps, available in black and tan. It is temperature regulating, so you can wear it in both summer and winter. Boody's slip has spaghetti straps, a loose fit and a mid thigh length, and comes in black and nude. The loose fit also makes it an obvious pick as a simple slip dress for relaxing at home, not just under a dress. Both are made from bamboo, which feels soft against the skin.

Sizes and fit

Copenhagen Bamboo comes in S, M, L, XL and XXL, so there is plenty of room in the larger sizes. Boody comes in XS, S, M, L and XL. Choose your normal size. If you want a slip that glides easily under a close fitting dress, Copenhagen Bamboo with side seams is a good option. If you prefer a softer, more relaxed fit, Boody is the natural choice. You have 100-day returns if the size is not right.

Slip or bodystocking

A slip is the classic solution under dresses and skirts. If you need something that covers more and fits closer to the body, a bamboo bodystocking can be an alternative. You can read about the difference in slip and bodystocking. If you are looking for the rest of your basic wardrobe, you will find it under bamboo underwear for women, and the dresses themselves are under bamboo dresses.
