Basic Skin Tone Bias Slip
This may not be everyone's cup of tea since there no color to it, and it looks very plain.... however, if you cut the rosettes off of underwear because they show through slinky fabrics, and kick yourself for ignoring the "plain cousin" in favor of those brightly colored lace embedded slips, only to find you are limited to what you can wear with them.... then you might find some usefulness to this plain little slip. It doesn't knock you over the head with it's brilliance but you can wear it under practically everything.

Silk crepe has a lovely drape and is very fluid, but it's a bear to work with. You really need to take your time and cut precisely, and don't get discouraged if after taking all that time you still end up with a few areas that don't meet, take a deep breath, go back and trim them.
Match your side seams...
You need a few good tools to help you along the way, very sharp scissors and fine sharp silk pins.
Don't be afraid to try new techniques like overlapped seams...
This is a Folkwear pattern, Intimacies #219, the same pattern that featured the tap pants from a few posts ago.
