    Very pretty but a little short

      My daughter is six and a half and tall and slim. She always wears a 7/8 in Mini Boden Dresses but this one fits her more like a tunic. Very short on her. Might work better for a petite girl. Material and print are very nice.

          I love the vintage look to this dress and the red details (blue dress) add a nice touch. I worried the collar would be too high on her neck and make her uncomfortable, but it's not been a problem at all.

              My daughter and I were both excited when this arrived by mail. The dress is adorable and stylish (by 6-year old standards) and adorable and age-appropriate (by mom standards). We purchased the rose print, which has a slightly graphic tone that keeps it modern.

              As shown in the catalog, this piece works well either with leggings or without as the weather warms. A great purchase that will be worn a lot this summer!

                This dress is so cute! My daughter loves it as she thinkgs it has retro styling! She is 9 and quite fashion conscious. She is wearing it now with leggings, but it will be a great length when it warms up. She wears dresses everyday.

                  Ordered a size up after reading reviews, but the dresses are pretty big. My girls will get to wear them this year and next!

                  Pretty is right, but watch the sizing

                        We ordered the yellow dot dress for my girly 6.5 year old and she adores it. She insisted on putting it on right away even though it was snowing outside. Such a pretty feminine style without being too grown up. This is classic Boden.

                        I ordered what I thought would be a too large 9/10 as we have enough summer dresses for this year but I was shocked to see it fit my tall but skinny kid so well. We had to cinch in the waist a good bit -- the functioning drawstring is brilliant, btw! --but I wouldn't really want it any shorter for now and the shoulder width seems quite slim for a 9/10.

                        Great dress, albeit slightly too short and narrow for the sizing, I think. I'm glad I sized up and realize now we're going to be looking at 11/12s for length in the near future.

                          I really liked this dress but when it came it smelt awful. I am sure it was just a fluke but am sending it back anyway.

                            This is such a cute dress! I purchased the yellow and white polkadot dress for my 8 year old in size 9-10. She is tall and slender ~ the body of the dress fits her well. It is a bit too short though, and that's why I gave it 4 stars. We are going to keep it and try leggings underneath.

                              I bought this dress for my nine year old who is an average height and size and it fit her very well. It is a very pretty dress with old-fashioned charm and she looks lovely in it. I particularly like the red details...they complement the navy floral pattern perfectly. Both my daughter and I love the dress and I am certain we will get a great deal of wear out of it.

                                I bought this lovely dress in Navy for my daughter and when it came, we weren't disappointed in the least. The color is vibrant and the dress is so much prettier in person than on the website. I bought it in a 7-8 for my 6.5 year old daughter and it fit her perfectly in length. The material of the dress makes perfect for the spring and summer. Great job Boden! We love it!
