      Comments about Boden Women Wrap Front Wool Dress:

      The tailoring and charcoal fabric are high quality, very menswear and a bit heavier than I expected but still OK for year-round wear here in L.A. thanks to the short cap sleeves. The cut is feminine and flattering. I'm 5' 4" 120#, busty (34D) and normally wear a 4, but based on other reviews ordered the 6 petite and I am happy with it though on anyone taller than me the petite length might be too short due to the back slit. There is a little extra fabric in the back/waist area so I may get alterations, but it's fine as-is; the top and shouders fit perfectly and the front pleats hide my poochy belly. I plan to wear for work meetings, with a statement necklace and bright shoes to jazz up the conservative fabric.

        The purple color is beautiful. It looked nice on but couldn't move comfortably. Too tight in shoulders and hips.

          This dress just says expensive and elegant, yet professional. It mixes classic with stylish. The fabric is very durable but soft and comfortable. Not your ordinary dress. Can be appropriate for many different occasions.

              This dress is just right for a cool day without being too warm. It's well made so I don't have to worry about flashing too much cleavage or thigh. The blue/purple is a great alternative to black.

                  I bought this dress and the more fitted version with the jacket as a suit alternative for work. This dress was WAY too much material for my frame. It fit, but the cross-bust wrap and some extra material at the tummy made me look like a saggy mummy. I guess it would be better for a large busted woman with a tummy, but it certainly would not hide anything. Back it goes.

                  Dress is great for work and the color is very flattering. It's a nice change from black and grey. I originally got the dress in size 10 (my usual size), but it was wide in the hips, so I exchanged it for a size 8. Fits much better!

                    I purchased this for a special occasion, but I also knew I would be able get lots of wear out of this dress. I have a curvey, pear shaped figure, and so I bought the size that matched my hips. I then took it to a tailor for customization in the waist & bust. I am so glad that I invested in this piece for my wardrobe. It is classic and so I can pull it for work, or for a special social occasion, I style it with a wide belt and heels.
