Roman ‘flattering’ floral dress is the ultimate summer staple

Wedding season is officially upon us, and for guests, that means one thing: it’s time to find an outfit worthy of the big day. Luckily, we’ve just spotted a standout option that ticks all the right boxes.

Over at Roman Originals, the Ivory Bardot Floral Tiered Dress (£60) is an elegant yet easy-to-wear style that feels perfectly suited to formal events like weddings. However, it would work just as well for garden parties, race days or summer celebrations.

With a flattering off-shoulder Bardot neckline, the dress brings a soft, romantic feel while still offering a polished silhouette. The tiered, layered skirt adds movement and flow, making it ideal for everything from posing for photographs to the dancefloor later on.

The floral print deserves a spotlight of its own, too. Set against an ivory base, it delivers a fresh burst of colour that feels seasonal without overpowering the look.

When it comes to styling, keep things classic with neutral heels and a clutch bag, or lean into the summer vibe with strappy sandals and delicate gold jewellery. A lightweight shawl or blazer can finish the look for cooler evenings.

Beyond Roman, Joe Brown’s Azalea Twist Front Jersey Dress (£48) is another great choice for wedding season. This knee-length dress, with a flattering V-neckline and sweet floral print, features a front-knot detail that gently cinches the waist, creating a more defined silhouette.

Otherwise, Boden also has some lovely pieces, such as this Octavia Cotton Dress (£129). It comes in a vibrant blue embroidery that’s ideal for summer, and shoppers can bag 15% off with the discount code K6X7.

For those convinced by the Ivory Bardot Floral Tiered Dress, it has had plenty of great reviews on Roman. This happy shopper said: “Absolutely beautiful dress, and I was quite impressed as it looks good on me.

“The delivery service was good. Looking forward to wearing it to a wedding in a couple of weeks.”

Meanwhile, a second shared: “Lovely dress. Had a lot of compliments when I wore it for a wedding. Very flattering.” And someone else piped up: “Lovely dress. Very flattering on. I bought this dress for my son’s wedding.”

However, it’s worth noting that the dress is made of polyester, which tends to trap heat in hot weather.

On a brighter note, though, this Roman shopper said: “I wore this beautiful dress for a wedding, and it definitely fit the bill. The style is so pretty, as was the pattern. Would definitely recommend.”

And someone else chimed in: “Absolutely love it. Everyone commented on it at my recent retirement party. So comfortable.”
