As autumn settles in, it’s time to refresh your wardrobe with stylish and versatile pieces — and this midi dress from Roman Originals fits the bill perfectly. With a gorgeous foliage print in rich hues of purple, black, and red, it truly evokes the traditional colours of the season.
This £45 piece features a hanky hem that adds a touch of elegance and movement, while its vibrant colours make it a standout piece for autumn dressing. Whether you’re heading to the office or on a dinner date, this dress can easily transition from day to night, making it a great investment for your collection.
For daytime chic, pair it with a black leather jacket and ankle boots. The edgy leather will complement the softness of the flowing fabric, giving you a balance between feminine and bold.
For a more relaxed look, swap boots for classic white trainers and throw on an oversized cardigan for those chilly autumn mornings. To add more texture and warmth, style the garment with tights, knee-high boots, and a chunky knit scarf.
For nighttime, elevate the dress with strappy sandals or heels and a sleek blazer. Add a statement belt at the waist to accentuate your figure, and switch your accessories: think gold jewellery and a clutch bag.
This frock has already received compliments from happy shoppers, with one calling it “very elegant.” They continued: “(It) washes lovely, comfortable to wear (and) this is from someone who would normally live in jeans. I’ve worn it twice so far and only bought it a couple of weeks ago, (but) I’m very happy with it. The quality of good, well made (and) looks expensive, but it was not.”
A second person said they “receive compliments every time I wear this dress,” while another said, “This style of dress suits me, and the print is nice.” There aren’t any negative reviews thus far, but it might be worth noting that it’s made from polyester, which isn’t the most eco-friendly material around.
Still, this dress’s hanky hem and flowing design will ensure you’ll feel gorgeous no matter where the season takes you. You can shop this midi dress via Roman Originals here.
