In short, a dress, typically a maxi dress, with a slit up the side of the skirt. Sometimes the slit is on both sides, though most of the time it's usually just on one. Depending on the dress, and often what they are trying to communicate about the character, the slit can be either as low as the woman's knee or as high up as the side of her butt. This type of dress is the perfect balance of elegant and sexy. Because they are typically about ankle length they usually avoid the issue of looking skimpy, and therefore trashy, while the exposed leg created by the slit allows the woman to show her legs and give on lookers (and the audience) plenty of eye candy to devour. Because of how well it can straddle the line between elegance and sensuality, it's a type of dress that can be found worn by characters on multiple points on the alignment chart. For good characters it's a great way to show She Cleans Up Nicely, or that she's Beautiful All Along, and for villainesses it's a great way for her to show that she's gorgeous and she knows it like The Vamp, the Literal Maneater, the Femme Fatale, or any similarly styled woman. It's also great for characters who fall somewhere in the middle they may be working with the good guys, but just like the exposed leg, there's a hint of danger to her. This dress is also great for an Action Girl or Kick Chick because, in the case of a Ballroom Blitz, she's better able to fight without requiring an Action Dress Rip or risking a Panty Shot (or at least, it will be less in-your-face). Because of its association with elegance as well as sexiness, this is often the dress of choice for The Fashionista and the High-Class Call Girl, especially if they're really rolling in dough. Qipao, especially when leaning into the fanservice, are known to have this trait. Practically the uniform of The Chanteuse. Often overlaps with Pimped-Out Dress and High-Heel Power. Please be careful when adding examples so that they don't violate No Lewdness, No Prudishness. Since these types are dresses are used for Fanservice, be sure not to add too much excessive details.

Ranma ½: Shampoo often sports a qipao, showing off her long, slender legs. This is only natural, as she hails from China, and works in a Chinese restaurant. And it also allows her to try and entice Ranma. Ranma has been known to sport a qipao or two when he was in his girl form. Usually as a way of invoking Distracted by the Sexy. In the movie, Nihao My Concubine, many of the girls are given dresses that sport slit legs while being offered up as bridal candidates for Prince Toma. Special note for the dresses worn by Ranma (girl-type), Nabiki, and Ukyo. |

Galaxy Angel: Ranpha's main outfit in the first trilogy is basically one of this with added windows for cleavage and midriff. Like Lei Fang above, she's a martial artist (but further augments her kicks by pairing it with matching high heels). The dress, like Lei Fang's, is a qipao. Forte's Mini Dress Of Power is also one of these, although it's not slit nearly as high as Ranpha's, going up to just above the knee. |

Resident Evil 4: Ada Wong wears a long dress with a thigh-high slit, continuing her trend of looking her best no matter her situation. The slit is functional too, as her entire inventory is strapped to her leg, and the length of the slit allows her to run, flip, and kick without being restricted by the dress. | |

Mr. & Mrs. Smith (2005): The poster shows Jane wearing a black version that reveals the gun in a holster on her thigh. She also wears it in the movie where she and John are dancing together. This plays into 1. The fact that she's played by Angelina Jolie and 2. The Femme Fatale and Honey Trap aspect of her job as a hitwoman. | |

Red Notice: John and Nolan arrive at a masquerade ball in Valencia to steal one of the film's valuable eggs. Their rival thief Sarah was also at the ball and intercepts them in the vault while wearing a figure-hugging red dress with low cleavage and a high slit. Upon seeing her, Nolan can only comment that she looks awful. Sarah kicks off her heels, lets her hair down, and engages them in a fight while wearing the dress. It also featured prominently in the film's marketing. | |

The Emperor's New Groove: Yzma wears such a dress in purple, but, because she's an old woman "scary beyond reason", she is less sexy and more Fan Disservice. To prove this point, Kuzco and Pacha are seriously disturbed when Yzma appears to be raising the slit of her dress to Show Some Leg... and are then relieved when she reveals that she has a dagger tied to her leg instead. | |

Ghostbusters (1984): When possessed by Zuul, Dana wears a revealing, red dress with a leg slit and her behavior becomes overtly sexual: first attempting to seduce Peter and later meeting and hooking up with Louis (possessed by Vinz Clortho). Ghostbusters: Afterlife establishes that Zuul's clothing isn't something that was discovered by Dana — it's a dress that Zuul manifests on the wearer, in this case, Callie Spengler. In Afterlife she prefers gold, but in the same style with a leg slit. | |
