Crochet is a wonderful fabric to opt for in the summer as it is not only chic and stylish, but cooling too. At Roman, a particular crochet piece is winning over shoppers: the Crochet Tie Front Knit Tunic, available in three colours: cream, khaki, and black.
Flattering Length and Versatile Styling
Ideal for holidays and warm weather at home, shoppers adore the length of the top as it falls just below the hips. This provides coverage when layering over swimwear or shorts, but also offers an elegant finish when paired with trousers or a maxi skirt. Made from 100% cotton, the cooling top features boho-style long flared sleeves and a pretty tie front.
Pricing and Discounts
Roman shoppers can save money off the otherwise £35 cream colour with the code AFRPLC25Q226, bringing the cream shade down to £26.25 for new customers. Existing customers can use the code MOOD and get it for £31.50. The black shade is currently on sale for £28, and khaki is down to £26. All colours come in sizes small to extra large.
Customer Reviews
Roman customers have left rave reviews for the Crochet Tie Front Knit Tunic. One shopper said: "It looks flattering and I like the crochet work." A second person stated: "Washes nice, is a good length, fabric nice and soft. Great for summer." Speaking on the length, another customer wrote: "Looks comfortable for summer, is modest and good length and stylish." And similar thoughts were shared by another reviewer who commented: "Love love love this. Great length and lovely quality."
Styling Considerations
The top can be worn alone with swimwear, but when not by a beach or pool, it needs a top or cami layered underneath. This may be problematic for some people. At Next, a £29 Crochet Knit Floral Tank is made from a closed crochet material so does not need layering. It is also made from 100% cotton and features delicate scalloped edging. Alternatively, there is the Marks and Spencer Cotton Blend Crochet-Style Collared Cardigan for £32. This comes in cream or red and is a slightly more formal take on the trend thanks to the button-up front and collar.
Care and Versatility
The versatile item can be worn throughout the summer, complementing linen or denim wonderfully. It is machine washable, so shoppers should not need to worry about damaging the material or spending money on dry cleaning.
