Where can one get a warm full length slip or half slip

[Aladdin]

I am looking for a warm long slip. Preferably made from natiral fibres. Not polyester.
Searched online and I cant find anything. Doesn't anyone wear long warm slips / underskirts anymore?

(I cant wear anything tight around my waist for the next while...liver condition is making me swell up during the day ... so I'm wearing dresses that are quite loose. But for winter I'd need a decent slip)

Good to hear the word slip being used - something I grew up hearing from the womenfolk in the family - e.g. 'ee, yer slip is showing'.

It's out of necessity rather than nostalgia though... farmerbarleymow

I appreciate that, but it's always nice to hear words from my childhood that I just don't hear any more. Hope you get what you need though.

Surely M&S still do these

M&S do synthetic ones, but they're kind of cool-feeling and anti-static, so I like 'em. I'm so staticky, I need them to stop everything clinging, and I don't get sparks n my hair when I take them off.

I looked online on m&s. They're not long. I'd like one that goes to mid calf. And not man made fibre..

I wouldn't call cotton warm but it's not polyester - Some of these are cotton;

I'm not sure what kind of natural fibre wouldn't stick to your skirt. I reckon long johns (or short johns?) might be a better bet.

I have leggings and thermal leggings..they stick to the skirt too...and are not comfortable around the waist. Hence the slip idea. Full length preferably.

I thought I'd have no bother finding a long slip.

Don't think I've heard that since my grandmother died.

Nice frilly one on Amazon? I searched for 'cotton petticoat', plenty on there.

If you can sew, it would be an easy thing to make.
