Fifties Shirt Dress 33233
(Was $48.00 ) now $24.00 to $48.00

Simple, sleeveless dress in a nostalgic cut. Great with cardigan and leggings when the weather's a bit traditionally English, but also lovely to wear on its own on a more exotically hot day.

    When we saw the 50's shirt dress we knew we had to have it! The design is retro and trendy. The prints are fantastic. We bought the puppy print dress and loved it so much that we bought the yellow floral print and blue polka dot ones, too! The lining is nice on our daughter's very sensitive skin. We bought size 9/10 for our almost 9 year old and they fit perfectly. The arm holes are a bit big but, the darling design makes up for that. The belt on the blue polka dot dress is surprisingly tight compared to the other two dresses we purchased yet, our daughter won't part with it. It is so nice to find something that mom and daughter agree on. You can't go wrong with this one! Thanks Boden!

        Bought this dress for my 2 year old (2-3 yr size). It fit my daughter (35.5 inch tall and 28.5 lb.) perfectly. She loved the dress so much that she was not ready to take it off :)

          Wonderful dress that washes and wears well. I got the same dress in 2 different prints for my 8 and 9-year-old daughters. They get lots of compliments on the dresses!

                    There are so many nice things that I can say about this lovely dress. It is the perfect combination of practicality and whimsy. I purchased the Snowdrop Doggie Splash print for my three year old. She is over the moon for this dress. She loves all the puppies and the pink buttons and she enjoys having a dress that resembles something that her Mama wears. I will be buying this dress in the Sunshine Star Floral for her up coming summer birthday. I am so pleased with this dress, I want one exactly like it in my size.

                      I got the doggie print dress in a size 3-4 for my petite 4 year old daughter. I was pleasantly surprised because this dress is so much cuter in person than in the website photo. It fits my daughter perfectly. We are currently pairing it with the yellow pretty sparkly cardigan, and she looks like she is straight out of the 1950's. Adorable!

                        This dress is a gift my my niece's upcoming First Communion. I am delighted with the cut and fabric, and am confident she will love it, too. The vintage style lends a little bit of "big girl" sophistication, while the cute doggie print gives it "little girl" charm. I also am happy with the colors. Boden shows two photos. On the mannequin the colors are olive, gold, salmon and medium blue. On the model, they colors appear to be pastel pink, blue, yellow and mint green. Although I would have kept either, I much prefer the darker shades. I had read a review that the belt buckle looked cheap; perhaps it has since been changed, but to me it seemed quite sturdy and practical, especially since the belt is elasticized. I also appreciate that it is fully lined, eliminating the need for a slip. I can't speak to the fit, as I have not given it to my niece yet, but given Boden's easy return policies, I am not worried. I am a big Boden fan, and am very excited to be introducing my niece to your children's line.
