I used to despise waist slip, or as our mother called them androk! Because they’re just irritating and by putting waist slip that means it’s one more layer I have to wear underneath my clothes. I also especially hate them because it makes my legs sweaty.
Growing up, I see that there’s a necessity on using waist slip. Especially for those dresses or skirts that are see-through under the light. I guess being older makes me self-conscious about the attire I’m wearing and whether it’s proper or not.
Waist-slip help dress or skirt hang smoothly because it doesn’t directly get in contact with our skin. It also prevent skin from chafing if we’re wearing heavy or coarse fabrics such as wool or material with heavy nylon/polyester.
Waist-slip with light material such as silk, satin or cotton are more comfortable to be worn on hot weather condition. For white clothing, nude or skin tone colour is the best choice as it will look more natural whereas wearing white slip under white clothing will only emphasize the shadow of the undergarment.

Nowadays we can also find waist-slip that helps us create smoother silhouette and flatten our tummy.

yesss i too have discovered a newfound love for these slips! garis undies jadi ga nyeplak lagi di rok/dress yg berbahan tipis. oya.. punya gue wujudnya kaya culotte gitu malahan. mum bought them ages ago jadi dah ga tau lagi dapetnya dari mana.
Astaga, androk!
Gue jg perlu nih kayaknya, I’ve got a few dresses that are quite see-through and I’ve been wearing a body shaper underneath. Di bagian pakaian dalam di dept store gitu mestinya ada kan ya?
Slimming waist slip??? Fungsinya kaya korset donk? Gw pernah liat Flexees dari Maidenform yg model begini. Tapi gw maunya yg bisa rampingin perut doank, jangan pantat ikutan tepes, abis donk?? Wkwkwk
Hm, pas banget artikelnya, aku lagi butuh nih…dari kmaren smpet pengen cari, tapi lupa terus..
Kirain gue aja yang nyebutnya “androk”
Sejak kecil dikasih tau sama oma gue ya ini nyebutnya begitu.
Thanks for writing Mal.
I don’t wear dresses often, but now I know I’ll use waist-slip especially if I’m going to be wearing dresses which are see-through under the light.
