Spotlight: Women's Satin Half Slip Skirt Extenders

The Flash Grab slip acts as a buffer between skin and wool. I bought a white version for a linen skirt. The reality is, I bought this during a winter in a brick-lined town to keep the wind from my legs. Satin slides. Friction vanishes.

Supply remains constant. Massive textile factories produce these garments in high numbers to satisfy the global marketplace. Observe the lace. This trim adds a border of flowers to the hem. It works.

The black satin reflects the dim light of the study hall, and the polyester weave resists the collection of dust from the floor. The price point allows for the acquisition of multiple units, and the shipping speed ensures the arrival of the package before the next change in season. The lace adds length to a short garment, and the elastic waistband provides a secure fit for the wearer.

While the cost of (*US dollars)2.47 suggests a temporary solution, the utility of a knee-length barrier against static electricity serves anyone who walks through drafty hallways or sits on antique wooden chairs. But you do find that a simple piece of lace alters the architecture of an outfit by lengthening a hemline that was previously too short for a student's comfort. Still wrapping my head around how such a small investment provides the same structural security as the heavy slips found in the cedar trunks of old dormitories.

Falling past the knee. The black satin. The hemline drifts. Resting against the thigh. Cotton provides a base. Friction ends.
