Roma Dress in Olive Green Satin - Halterneck Maxi Bridesmaid Dress
£149.00
This is the one. The Roma in Olive Green is Rewritten's bestselling bridesmaid dress and once you see it in person, you'll understand why. Olive green is the modern neutral that works for every season, every venue, every skin tone, and every wedding palette. It's sophisticated without being safe, and it photographs like a dream.
Cut on the bias in premium butter-soft satin, the Roma drapes fluidly from a fitted halterneck bodice into a loosely flowing full-length skirt that moves beautifully with every step. The long crossover neck ties add quiet drama at the back and can be styled as a bow or a clean knot. The high back with centre back zip keeps everything polished and effortless.
Available in sizes 8–22, full length approximately 114cm from waist to hem.
The Roma in Olive Green works harder than your average bridesmaid dress because:
- Olive green is the ultimate modern neutral. Rich and sophisticated without being loud, it works across warm, cool, and neutral skin tones equally, and pairs beautifully with gold, ivory, blush, terracotta, sage, and champagne palettes.
- The halterneck elongates and flatters. An elegant neckline that draws the eye upward and works beautifully across a wide range of body types. Universally loved for a reason.
- That back neck tie detail is everything. Long crossover ties styled as a bow or knot give each bridesmaid a slightly different look, intentional variety that photographs brilliantly in group shots.
- Bias-cut satin that moves with you. Loosely draped through the skirt for fluid, beautiful movement. Never stiff, never clingy, always elegant.
- Works for every wedding, every season. Garden party in July or candlelit ballroom in December, olive green is the rare colour that genuinely suits both.
- A dress you'll genuinely wear again. Black tie, race day, a smart dinner — the Roma in Olive doesn't retire after the wedding.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Roma fits true to size. If you have a smaller bust, consider sizing down for a better fit through the bodice. The bias-cut skirt drapes loosely, so the fit is more relaxed from the hip down.
The Roma has a centre back zip and halterneck design, making it well suited to a strapless bra. Stick-on bras and nipple covers also work well. The halterneck provides its own support across the front, so many customers find they don't need additional support at all.
The Roma features long crossover neck ties that can be styled in a bow or a simple knot at the nape of the neck. A bow gives a softer, more romantic feel; a knot is cleaner and more minimal. It's a great way for bridesmaids to put their own stamp on the dress.
The Roma is a full-length maxi dress, approximately 114cm from waist to hem at its longest point. It can be shortened by a seamstress if needed — alteration guidance is available here.
Yes — olive green is one of the most universally flattering wedding palette colours. It works beautifully across warm, cool, and neutral skin tones alike. It's particularly stunning on deeper and olive skin tones where the earthy richness really resonates, and pairs beautifully with gold jewellery across the board.
Olive green has a warm, earthy, slightly yellow-toned quality — think muted, sophisticated, and rich. Sage is softer, greyer, and more muted. Forest green is deeper and cooler, with less warmth. Our Roma Olive Green sits in the warm, earthy middle ground that photographs beautifully in natural light and works across every season. Order a swatch to see the exact shade in person.

Yes — and we always recommend it for group orders. Order an Olive Green Satin fabric swatch before committing to a full bridal party order. Swatches are free, you just pay £1.50 postage. Olive green can read warmer or cooler on different screens, so a swatch takes the guesswork out completely.
The Roma in Olive Green is made from a premium butter-soft satin with a beautiful drape and subtle sheen. It moves elegantly and photographs beautifully in both natural and artificial light.
Yes, the Roma in Olive Green is available in sizes 8–22 including UK plus sizes 18, 20, and 22.
Olive green is one of the most versatile wedding colours there is — it works for botanical, garden, rustic, earthy, maximalist, and classic themes alike. It pairs beautifully with gold and ivory for timeless elegance, terracotta and sage for a modern earthy palette, and blush and champagne for a soft romantic feel. It works equally well for summer garden parties and winter candlelit ceremonies.
Honestly? Because olive green is the rare bridesmaid colour that genuinely works for everyone — every skin tone, every season, every wedding aesthetic. Paired with the Roma's flattering halterneck silhouette and fluid bias-cut drape, it's a combination that consistently gets the most compliments. We've seen it at hundreds of weddings and it never fails to photograph beautifully.
Absolutely. The Roma is designed to mix and match with other Rewritten olive green styles. Pairing the Roma's halterneck silhouette with a strappy style like the Amelia, for example, is a great way to suit different bridesmaids' body types and preferences — and it photographs really well.
Wash at 30 degrees with similar colours, or dry clean. Use a hand steamer to remove creases — do not iron directly on the satin. Please note that slight colour variations can occur between dresses due to the dyeing process, so ordering all dresses for your bridal party at the same time from the same batch is recommended.
