Fashion-conscious shoppers are rushing to snap up a "classy" party dress from Roman that is receiving glowing reviews for its flattering fit and elegant design. The Green Metallic Lace Sequin Midi Dress, currently reduced to £50 from £60, is being hailed as the perfect outfit for New Year's Eve and winter occasions.
A Standout Piece for the Festive Season
This eye-catching dress features a delicate lace overlay with subtle shimmer and sequin detailing, offering a festive glamour that isn't overtly Christmassy. Designed for events from weddings to dinner parties, it boasts a tailored waist and a midi length that hits just below the knee, approximately 120cm. The flared hem with godet panelling adds movement, making it suitable for dancing and social events.
Available in sizes eight to 20, the dress has proven so popular that size 10 has already sold out. Roman advises that the garment is hand wash only. Its short sleeves make it easy to layer under a shawl or coat for cooler weather.
Shoppers Share Their Verdict
The dress has garnered over 100 reviews, with customers particularly praising its fit and appearance. One satisfied buyer stated, "I had so many compliments, it fits really well and makes me feel good." Another highlighted its elegant colour and classy look.
A key benefit noted by several reviewers is its tummy-disguising properties. One four-star review read, "Looks pretty good on, even helps disguise my tummy. Love the length and colour." The flattering length was also a major plus, though one customer noted the design cannot be shortened due to the flared bottom, suggesting Roman consider offering petite lengths.
Styling and Alternative Options
For a sophisticated evening look, style the dress with simple black heels, a leather clutch, and minimal jewellery to let the texture and shine take centre stage. For daytime events, pair it with a long charcoal wool coat and an updo hairstyle.
For those seeking different styles, Roman offers a similar leaf lace dress in other colours like red and burgundy. Shoppers wanting a long-sleeve statement lace dress might consider the Lipsy Black High Neck Lace Flare Sleeve Midi Dress at Next for £68. Meanwhile, M&S stocks a statement red option, the Sosandar Lace Bardot Midi Column Dress, for £95.
With New Year's Eve fast approaching, this Roman dress appears to be a winning choice for anyone wanting a glamorous, confidence-boosting outfit that combines style with a clever, flattering cut.
