    This is a really versatile dress. I feel like I could accessorize it to wear just about anywhere. Good quality materials, and the design has just enough cut to dress it up...but its not overly structured. Looking forward to wearing it a lot this summer!

        I have 3 weekends in June...baby shower, Bat Mitzvah & wedding. Since they all are with different groups of people I got this dress! It's just perfect! I was nervous about the stripes & green color but both are fun and classic. The stitching detail is very nice. It works nice with a cardigan so that will work for the Temple and for work outfit this summer. Got it on a good sale price too! I am 5ft 9in and got my usual long size...hits just above the knee

        Sadly unflattering and high waisted

        I so almost love this dress. I just have had no luck with the waistlines this season. Boden - please go back to natural waist! Previous seasons I've wanted to keep every dress I ordered - this season I return most of them for being unflattering. This dress, like so many I have returned this season, has a high, but not quite empire, waist. So, on short curvy me it adds 10 pounds and makes me look dumpy. It's really a pity - i absolutely loved the fabric and it would have been so cute otherwise. So - my advice is that unless you are very slim, don't want/need to accentuate your waist, or are don't mind looking heavier than you are, don't buy this dress.

        I loved this dress when it arrived, the fabric is really nice. Sadly the waist poofs out making me appear wider.

            I love Boden's styles but often find the dresses impossible to put on--so I was thrilled to find a Boden dress with a back zipper. This dress's zipper ends at the narrowest part of the waist, however, which means it's still near-impossible to fit over either shoulders or hips. If it only extended a few inches further down, this would be a great dress, but alas, I had to send it back.

            I so wanted to like this dress! The design is cute, and when I took it out of the bag, I was impressed with the weighty fabric--not really what I wanted for running around town, but I could see its usefulness. The fit on top was fabulous, but the design on the skirt is horrible. I'm 5'6, 120lbs, very up and down shape. My hips looked gigantic, and the location of the pockets makes it even worse! So sad to have to send it back.

                  I am 5'2" 115 pounds, small breasted. The size 2 petite fits perfectly. It is difficult to zip the back with no help...not a big problem. Also, the pockets on the side may add bulk where someone may not want it. Other than that, it's well made and stylish!
