Roma Dress in Chianti Satin — Halterneck Maxi Bridesmaid Dress

Chianti is the colour that commands attention. A rich, deep red wine shade that's sophisticated, warm, and completely show-stopping — it's the bridesmaid colour for brides who want their wedding party to look genuinely memorable.

Cut on the bias in Rewritten's viscose satin, the Roma has a beautifully smooth handle with a little more give than our standard satin — making it one of the most comfortable and fluid styles in the collection. It 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 drama at the back and can be styled as a bow or a clean knot.

Available in sizes 8–18, full length approximately 114cm from waist to hem.

Please note: The Roma in Chianti is being discontinued and will not be restocked once current stock sells through. If you love this colour, we'd recommend ordering sooner rather than later.

The Roma in Chianti works harder than your average bridesmaid dress because:

Chianti is a rich, luxurious statement. Deep red wine with warmth and depth — it photographs beautifully in any light and pairs with ivory, gold, blush, and greenery for a palette that feels genuinely special.
Viscose satin with a difference. Smoother and with a little more give than standard polyester satin, the viscose fabric drapes beautifully and feels incredible against the skin.
The halterneck elongates and flatters. An elegant neckline that draws the eye upward and works beautifully across a wide range of body types.
Those neck ties are not an afterthought. Long crossover ties styled as a bow or knot give each bridesmaid a slightly different look. Intentional variety photographs really well in group shots.
Bias-cut for fluid movement. Loosely draped through the skirt. Never stiff, never clingy, always elegant.
A dress you'll genuinely wear again. Black tie, festive dinner, anniversary — the Roma in Chianti never struggles to find an occasion.
