I love the design of this dress, just wished it fit better. My main complaint is that it wrinkles terribly. I know it is linen, and linen wrinkles easily, but it stretched out really bad in the back from where I was sitting in it. Normally this wouldn't bother me, but the dress was a little big in the bottom half to begin with. I am 5'6" 120lbs 34C and ordered the 4R. It fits snug in the chest but is big at the waist and hips. I think it could be tailored easily and look great, so this is my plan. I received many compliments when I wore it, so it is worth paying to have it tailored.

    I love this dress. Even though I am broader in shoulders and usually have to go few sizes up, in this case one size up did the trick.

      I adore the hip, chic, retro-coolness of this dress. It is easy to slip into and dash off to work or fabulous weekend adventures. I am looking forward making this dress a staple this summer.

      This was possibly the most disappointing purchase from Boden ever!! :( Aside from the fact that its not lined, which makes it rather flimsy with a blah drape, its just very ordinary looking. I got the white flower/leaf sprig print and the color-scheme is very washed out and blah. The white is more like antique/dirty white, almost a off-white with grey/pink/sage sprigs and it looks really "meh", if you know what I mean. I was looking for something like last years circle applique lined/linen dress. Not sure about the other colors, might work over a bathing suit or at the beach. But I am returning this one

      This dress is perfect for me, but may not work for everyone. I am very wide shoulders but I am not busty and this dress is perfect for me. If you are extremely busty you may have problems. Otherwise it seems perfect! The ivory is not as white as pictured; in fact I like it better!

      Really really wanted it to fit

        I REALLY wanted this tunic to fit. The colors are beautiful, and it's lightweight for Spring/Summer. I have a very similar style from Boden - a size US 8, that fits well. This size 8? Too big. I'm 5'9" and 145 pounds, smaller on top with larger hips, but this one was too big almost everywhere - except the shoulders and arms. I have long arms, so that can be tricky. Am too worried that the 6 will be too tight at the hips and shoulders, so back it goes. Usually the Boden tunics and dresses fit me well in an 8, so I'd size down if you don't have my large hip problem!

          I felt great in this dress. It is casual, chic and comfortable to run around town doing errands etc. I think it is a great alternative to shorts. I have received many compliments. I did think it ran slightly large. I returned the 6R for a 4R, as I like a more fitted look. I am going to order another tunic dress from Boden...love it.

            I wasn't sure what size to order, but the 4R fit me perfectly. I often wear a 2 in other brands, but since I wear a 36 bra size, I thought I needed something larger. The dress is adorable and doesn't require you to suck in your tummy to look cute. Very comfortable and striking fabric. The linen does wrinkle, as linen does.

              I love linen, it's a perfect summer dress. The fit is good for a curvy body, nice silhouette. The print is strong but not overwhelming and the ivory background gives it the feel of a beach party. Updated but not teenager, I haven' t used it yet but looks like it wears well, I'll see.
              Love this dress.:)

              Beach wear

              I tried this in a 10L hoping to wear it is a day dress. The 10 was too small, so if you are between 2 sizes take the larger. There is a matching swimsuit pattern and that explains the very beachy vibe to the dress. Had it fit, my goal was to wear it as a dress, but I'm not going to try it in a larger size because it just doesn't feel like an "out in public, headed downtown" kind of day dress and instead is better suited to how it is pictured -- as a "walking on the beach" kind of coverup.
