    Well-made with a little stretch (but heavy enough to not cling) this dress works well for countless occasions. I bought the red and then picked up the navy as a quieter option. The band in the middle does not give very much on these dresses, and it does seem tighter on the navy one. Odd, but just garment variation I suppose. Glad I picked up both - I will get lots of use out of them.

        A great tribute to the era of Elegant Flight. Blending modern sensibility in fabric and cut with proper and mod tailoring - a win all around! The dress is less a sheath due to the great waistband - maximizes and embraces all hourglasses out there. Thank you Boden!

        The fabric is year round and wear well. The texture is a nice touch, lends elegance and style to the dress.

        Let's have more colors and perhaps a pattern or multi-thread weave for fall...along with either short sleeve or full length sleeves.

        Maybe a little box hat for fall? To complete the look? Jackie O. meets The Queen on Air Force One?

        Bravo. Buckle up, it's going to be a frequent, elegant ride.

          I love the style, fabric, color, and design of this dress, but it is too short, in my opinion, to wear for work, which is why I bought it. Another few inches and this would have been a perfect dress.

            Really like the dress. I couldn't decided between the red or turquoise. The turquoise has just a tint of green. I don't have anything in turquoise so I ordered the turquoise. The dress fits great. I didn't follow the drying instructions. I put the dress in the dryer on delicate and it came out perfect (but only partially dryed the dress). The directions state to shape and lay flat to dry so I don't want to mislead anyone. But no ironing is required which is what I like!

            Really cute, but really short...

            I really wanted to love this dress but it was really short on me (and I'm only 5'5"). I ordered the regular and it was still very short, especially for work. Also, it was a bit on the smaller side overall. I am usually a size 10 in Boden and this would have been too tight for me.
            Other that that, the dress didn't look very comfortable when I opened the package but once I tried it on, I think it would have been. Bummer.

              Bought this dress in the green/teal color. I love it. You could wear this for a night out or to work. It feels well made and the fit is perfect. This dress is so worth the sale price.

                Bought this dress a size up because of all of the comments about it being so small and the zipper being so hard to pull up. .... NOPE. Had to return for the smaller size. This is a ponte knit, so, as one might expect, it's stretchy. I don't actually need the zipper at all, though I can see how the construction would make it stick, I doubt it would be because it's too small. It's meant to be somewhat form fitting, and it is, but much better look than baggy. I'm excited to wear this at work and out all of the time!

                  i ordered this dress due to the lovely turquoise color. when i received it, the color wasn't quite as bright as in the pictures but still a beautiful shade, just a little more muted. the fit is great but because of the tailored nature of the dress, i will need to wear shaping undergarments. but it's a great dress of high quality that i'll be wearing it for years to come!

                    I would buy even more of these dresses if they came in even more colors. The fabric is a great weight for winter. The cut and style are perfect for my body shape. This is a great dress for work, and it is comfortable at the same time. Can dress it up or dress it down. Love love love this dress.
