A stylish and affordable alternative to cardigans and jackets for summer weddings has been discovered by fashion-conscious shoppers. The Textured Pointelle Detail Shrug from Roman, normally priced at £20, is available for just £15 using the discount code AFRPLC25Q226 for new customers or FAB for 10% off for existing shoppers.
Why This Shrug Is a Hit
Offering a lightweight layer without the bulk of a jacket, the shrug features a soft pointelle yarn with three-quarter sleeves, providing just enough coverage for the arms. Its cropped length and elongated front make it ideal for layering over sleeveless dresses, adding elegance to any outfit.
Shoppers have praised the shrug for its fit and vibrant color, with one reviewer stating, “I am so pleased with this shrug, it has delicate shaping to the knitted design and falls beautifully. The colour is a gorgeous spring pink and goes great with a dress I already have for a special garden party.”
Customer Reviews
The shrug has earned a near-perfect rating of 4.9 out of five stars. Another customer shared, “I chose this as an evening cover up. I am not happy with my upper arms (old lady batwings!) and this is ideal to wear over a sleeveless dress without being too heavy. Would recommend.”
Additional reviews highlight its versatility: “Fabulous to pop on over my dress, made the outfit complete” and “Gorgeous colour and perfect for summer. Fits true to size and washes well.”
Alternatives and Availability
If the Roman shrug is not to your taste, other options include the Hobbs Carrie Bolero, reduced from £49 to £39.20, and Coast's Jacquard Peplum Jacket at £40, down from £69. Roman also offers the Black Brocade Puff Sleeve Jacket for £20, down from £45.
Note that the Textured Pointelle Detail Shrug is semi-sheer, which may not suit all preferences, but it remains a popular choice for summer events.
