Next's 'classy' polka dot dress gets wedding guests 'lots of compliments'
The stylish midi dress boasts an impressive overall rating of 4.8 out of five Weddings are joyous occasions full of love and laughter, however finding the perfect outfit to wear can be quite the opposite experience. With so many gorgeous dresses on the market, it can be an exhausting and time-consuming process to find the ideal frock, but Next shoppers believe they have found the answer. Fashion fans are snapping up the Love & Roses Black/White Polka Dot Midi Dress to wear to weddings, with one saying they received 'lots of compliments' while wearing it. Priced at £66, the gown is available in sizes eight to 22 and boasts pretty scallop trim detailing. The sleeveless dress, which also comes in a green and white polka dot print, has a flattering crew neckline and self-tie belt, allowing the wearer to cinch in their waist if desired. The pleated skirt falls to a flattering midi length, allowing one to show off their fancy footwear. For shoppers wanting to explore other polka dot dresses, Roman is selling a similar Black Spot Sweetheart Midi Dress priced at £42. Available in sizes 10 to 20, this frock has delicate frill short sleeves and a side split. Elsewhere, Nobody's Child is selling a Black Polka Dot Bandeau Felicity Midi Dress for £99. This strapless gown comes in sizes four to 18 and boasts a fit-and-flare shape with pockets. The Love & Roses Black/White Polka Dot Midi Dress boasts an impressive overall rating of 4.8 out of five on the Next website. A delighted buyer shared: "Bought this dress for a wedding I was going to. It's very dressy and beautiful on. Most comfortable to wear, everyone commented on how lovely it looked." Another happy customer wrote: "Lovely material. True to size, very classy dress. I had lots of compliments." "Lovely dress, well made and fully lined," reads a five-star review. "The pleats fall beautifully and there's no creasing." Someone else added: "Beautiful dress. Took it on holiday. Travelled really well, no creases. Looked gorgeous." Not one person has a bad word to say about the Love & Roses Black/White Polka Dot Midi Dress. It's worth noting, however, that over on Trustpilot, a shopper experienced issues with a different dress they purchased from Next. They explained: "Love the dress, but as soon as I took it out of the packaging to iron, the top button fell off. Not the quality I would expect." Thankfully all of the reviewers of the Black/White Polka Dot Midi Dress were impressed with their order, with one noting: "Excellent prompt service. Item received in perfect condition. Will be using this service again."

Roman shoppers get 'compliments' at wedding in 'very slimming' summer dress
Roman shoppers get 'compliments' at wedding in 'very slimming' summer dress 'Beautiful flowy dress. I bought this dress as I want to hide my tummy and it has done just that.' Shoppers can use a code to get 10% off (Image: Roman ) Shoppers on the hunt for a summer wedding guest dress that is versatile enough to be worn post-celebration have struck gold with a floaty number found at Roman. The chiffon frill midi dress comes in seven different prints, however, some patterns are proving so popular they're running out of sizes. Fashion fans have the option to choose from styles such as a teal leaf print, a mauve floral painted design and a green botanical fabric for £65. But in even better news, for a limited time, the code JULY can be applied at checkout to receive 10% off, taking the price down to £52. While the dress can be worn for all kinds of occasions, lots of shoppers are snapping it to feel confident and comfortable attending weddings. One person left a review that says: "For a wedding. Perfect! So pleased that I relied on Roman. Knew I would find my perfect dress."

Ruching around the middle is a clever feature and it's winning over wearers. Labelling the dress 'flattering', someone said: "This really is a lovely dress, lightweight and floaty with a gorgeous design and a perfect midi length. Very slimming, which we all want! Perfect for rolling up and popping in your suitcase for holidays abroad. Love it." Another person was pleased that the 'top of arms is covered by sleeves', adding on that they 'love the colours' of the outfit. Echoing similar thoughts, someone else wrote: "Really loved the colours of this dress and the floaty feel of the fabric. The sleeves are ideal as they fall softly over upper arms." Floral Frill Dress £52 Roman Shop Deal Product Description Shoppers can get 10% off using the code JULY. Shoppers that want an even bigger saving than the Roman dress might want to take a look at the Boden sale, where the Mia Tiered Shirt Dress is discounted down to £54.40 when it was originally £136. Now more than £80 cheaper, it's a great opportunity to pick up a high ticket item for a lot less. Next is another retailer where shoppers can find summer guest dresses for less than £100. This Love & Roses Sundress is £69 and as it is crafted from 100% cotton, it's a smart option to wear on a hot day. Shoppers also find the Roman dress comfy to wear, with someone saying: "I already have this style dress in a different colour, which I love and feel comfortable in. Very floaty and feminine." The floaty skirt is a very flattering feature (Image: Roman ) Another fan enjoyed how it skimmed their body, sharing: "Good fit. I have curves and 'a bit of a tummy' and the dress smooths over without clinging. I felt comfortable in it and wore it to a wedding with a little white jacket over." Article continues below But, it might not be to every shopper's taste as someone found 'it didn't suit me', so they 'sent it back'. Other customers were more than happy and a five star reviewer explained that they received compliments when wearing it. Their review says: "Beautiful dress and colour a lot of people commented how beautiful it is." The Roman dress can be styled in several ways, but we think all prints and colours look particularly good paired with metallic accessories. It could be pared back with a light blue denim jacket and white trainers on a casual day, getting more wear out of it and making the £52 price tag even more appealing.
