Roman’s ‘flattering’ sequin dress is the ultimate Christmas party fit

Christmas party season is fast approaching, which means a multitude of sparkles, sequins, and velvet. If you’re already searching for that perfect fit, Roman Originals has unveiled this elegant £100 Chiffon Wrap Maxi Dress — and we reckon it’s sure to turn some heads at the office do. 

Plus, with its glamorous design, this gown is fitting for both Christmas parties and black-tie events, making it a wardrobe staple you can wear year-round. Looks-wise, it features a sophisticated wrap silhouette to flatter every figure, with a floaty cape-sleeved bodice to inject a touch of dramatic flair.

The tie waist will help to enhance your shape, while its flowing chiffon skirt will create an effortlessly graceful look — just imagine twirling it around on the dance floor. The frock is further elevated by its sequin detailing, which adds the right amount of sparkle, making it a worthy statement piece. 

Regarding styling, we recommend opting for understated accessories: delicate drop earrings or diamond studs. Consider strappy shoes in metallic shades like silver or gold to complement its sequins, or keep it classic with sleek black heels. 

To complete your ensemble, a classic red lip is always a great shout for Christmas events, and it’ll pair beautifully with the dress’s glittery sequins. Or opt for smoky eyes with metallic shimmer to match its sparkle, and finish with a sweep of highlighter to help you glow all evening long. 

The dress is pretty new on Roman’s site, but it’s already received some positive reviews from shoppers. One called it the “best dress I’ve bought in ages (with a) lovely fit and nice length,” while another said it’s “so easy to put on and comfortable to wear while looking glam (…) perfect for a Christmas night out.”

A third impressed customer said: “The dress is very flattering and true to size. I ordered a size 16 that covers all lumps and bumps, which is very flattering. It also covers the tops of my arms, which I can be conscious of. I am also petite and thought it would be too long, but it reaches my ankles, which is perfect for what I needed (and it is) made of quality material. I highly recommend it.”

One note: It’s hand wash only, which means you’ll either have to take it to the dry cleaners or wash it yourself — not exactly what you need the day after a party.
