I really wanted to find the perfect summer dress. I thought this would be great for me, but unfortunately it did not work. I ordered a 6R (I am 5'2" 130lb, and pear shaped). The back just didn't look right. Maybe my hips are too wide for this to hang properly, or that I have a short-waist. Too bad, because I really liked the pin-tucked detail.

I was looking for a dress to wear to a summer picnic for my husbands work and wanted something not only beautiful, but comfortable. I have always loved linen. When I first got this dress (I got it in Eau de Nil), I was bummed, it looked huge and when I tried it on it looked like I had pulled a beautiful blue bag over my head. I almost cried, until my husband suggested I throw it in the wash for a quick spin. I washed it on warm hoping it would shrink just a tiny bit. It did and after it was dry it fit me perfectly. (I'm 5'6", 120lbs and bought a size 4 according to the size chart). It's so gorgeous I may just wear it everyday (or maybe buy another in a different color). This is perfect to wear with leather sandals or could probably be dressed up with a scarf and heels!

A nice dress for hot weather. On me it isn't as form fitting as in the photos. I plan on dressing it up for work when it gets blistering hot out. It washed well and was fast to iron.

I ordered this dress in the sunset color and it was not the rich lipstick-red color that I was expecting. Still though, it's a nice watermelon red (it's better depicted in the still shot than on the model). The fit is flattering but not fitted (not boxy or sack-like either) and the pintuck detailing is absolutely darling. I love that the neckline isn't too low, which has been somewhat of an issue for me this season. My only complaint -- and the reason for the four stars instead of five -- is that this dress is short! I'm short (just under 5'2") and this dress was too short for me. It was a couple of inches above my knee. I exchanged it for the long version and now it's perfect! This will be a great go-to summer dress. I plan to pair it with wedge sandals, cute jewelry, and some watermelon-red lipstick :)

Nice comfortable dress.Casual with sandals but can b dressed up

Beautiful linen dress! I love the fit, it is very true to size. I am 5'3 and 125 lbs and the 6 fit perfect (my normal Boden size). I ordered the marine blue color and it is very beautiful. Perfect to wear to church or work or as a casual dress for running errands, lunch date etc.

This is my new favorite dress! Super comfortable, lovely fabric, perfect pintucks to make it fit in the most flattering way. I wear a slip with it to work but probably won't when wearing it out. I bought the darker blue and it's super cute with bright flats or strappy sandles.

This dress is a bit large across the back, but adding two back darts easily solved that problem. The design is very flattering, comfortable and good-looking; the soft blue color is lovely.

Very cute dress. The Eau de Nil color is lovely, sort of a bluish minty color. I wore this to work and received several comments on the dress. Like most linen, it wrinkles easily and will have to be ironed after washing, but it is a charming and affordable dress for spring.

Perfect to wear to work or just out on a nice sunny day.
