Roman's new Baroque Border Shirt Dress, priced at £48, is now available for £36 for new shoppers using the exclusive discount code 'AFRPLC25Q226', offering a 25% saving of £12. The high-street retailer describes the dress as 'in demand', blending Italian-inspired luxury with an everyday wearable silhouette.
A Design Inspired by Italian Baroque
Named after the artistic movement that flourished in Italy from the late 16th to the early 18th century, the dress features a bold border print with red and orange hues set against a black background. The design draws comparison to the ornamental styles integrated by luxury fashion house Versace.
The button-through dress includes a classic collar, long sleeves with elasticated cuffs, and side seam pockets. A self-tie belt cinches the waist for a flattering fit, while the floaty midi length is designed to flatter women of all heights and body shapes.
Pricing and Availability
Existing customers can secure a 10% saving by entering the promotional voucher 'TREND' at checkout, reducing the price to £43.20. Roman is also offering free express delivery on the dress. The piece is available in sizes 10 to 20, all currently in stock online.
The dress can be styled with heels for formal events or with trainers or chunky boots for casual occasions. It is also noted as suitable for autumn or winter weddings.
Alternative Options and Considerations
For comparison, Marks and Spencer's Floral Bodycon Midi Dress with Long Sleeves is priced at £45, while Next's Burgundy Red Scarf Print Long Sleeve Tie Waist Shirt Dress is available for £39.
The Baroque Border Shirt Dress has not yet received reviews from shoppers. It only comes in a regular length, which may not suit those who typically shop in petite or tall sections. The fabric is a blend of viscose and polyamide, making it soft and durable for machine washing, but it is not a fully natural material like wool, cotton, or silk.
