    I've fallen in love with this dress from Forever21. It's light and perfect for summer (I live in a hot climate) but it's see through. You'd notice any colour underwear beneath it. What would be best to line it? Getting a slip or some material for a dressmaker to sow a lining in it?
    Materials, from website, are:SHell1 : 100% rayon; Shell 2: 100% nylon; Lining: 100% polyester
    Any advice is appreciated.

    My favourite lining is silk habitue but that might add weight to the dress. A slip might be a more practical solution. I got a lovely half one in Debenhams [invisable half slip] and I find it really good. Comes in black and nude..

    Just looking at the pic of the dress, I'd be doubtful if sewing in a lining would work. The fabric looks very lightweight and sheer.
