A slip is a woman's undergarment worn beneath a dress or skirt. A full slip hangs from the shoulders, usually by means of narrow straps, and extends from the breast to the fashionable skirt length. A half slip (or waist slip) hangs from the waist. The word petticoat may also be used for half slips.

Scope note
Underwear usually made the length of the garment under which it is to be worn, thereby taking the place of a lining. Usually applied to full slips with a bodice and shoulder straps made in dress length. Prefer "half slips" for skirtlike underwear extending from the waist to near the hemline of the garment with which it is worn.
