    Very pretty

          This dress is quite pretty - I'm a little so-so on the fit because the P4, while perfect in the waist, is a shade too snug in the hips but I think an extra 2" in the cut with a P6 would be too baggy. Otherwise, the length is perfect for my 5'1", relatively long-torso'ed frame and the Guava is a festive pinkish-salmony color. The embroidered trim is nice without looking too "handicrafts."

          liked this but it fit too wide in the ribcage and so wasn't flattering, so sent it back

              This dress is very flattering. While remaining comfortable, it allows you to look effortlessly chic. It fits like a dream. The fabric is soft but heavy enough to be durable. This will be my go to dress for the season.

                I felt so-so about ordering this dress, as I didn't think it looked like anything to write home about. However, it got really good reviews and I was looking for a dress in the guava color so I gave it a try. Boy, was I more than pleasantly surprised! It fits like a dream and somehow manages to make me look long and lean, which I am not (just under 5'2" and hourglass-y)! The empire waistline enhances the bust without making it look like a maternity dress. The length hits just below my knee and looks amazing with wedge sandals. While the guava color is not exactly see-through, the dark polka dots on my bra showed a bit when I tried the dress on. I tried it on again with nude-colored undies and problem solved. I love this one so much I ordered a second in periwinkle. I will definitely get my money's worth out of this one this summer!

                Pretty Summer Dress

                  I was looking for a comfortable, easy, short, casual summer dress to wear on vacation, on the airplane (and even to church). This fits the bill pretty nicely. It has a beautiful vibrant color (I ordered the purple), and the material seems to be high quality. It would be almost perfect if not for the sleeves. They seem a little tight, and are not the most flattering shape/cut unless you have really thin arms. Unfortunately, I don't. I would have preferred a little bit longer sleeve to make a more regular short-sleeved dress.
                  I ordered a size 8 petite, and otherwise I would really love the fit. I am 42 y/o, 5'3 and 140 lbs.

                  I absolutely loved the cut and fit of this dress -- it disguised my lumps and bumps and was very flattering; however I just didn't love the purpley-blue color so sent it back. Would be wonderful to see additional color options!

                    I loved the purple color but the waistline was too high for me. Since I already have a short torso and long legs, this was not flattering. Wish there were more designs with the waistline at the true waist.

                      I'm 5'1 slim, 4P in Boden clothing and it hits right below my knees, which is very flattering. I'm a D cup and found the top to be snug (the garment measurements are accurate), I thought of exchanging it for the next bigger size but then the rest of the dress would be too big.
                      The skirt part is a bit voluminous (although good to hide imperfections) and it could be cut an inch bigger on the chest. I'm overall happy with the dress and plan to wear it a lot this summer :)

                        This dress manages to have abdominal pleats without making me look like I am wearing a maternity dress. It's simple and cute. Very comfortable.
