I really wanted to like this!

By Anneet

from Vermont

Pros

  • Comfortable
  • Practical

Cons

  • Poor Quality
  • Unfinished Edges

Best Uses

  • Casual Wear

The fabric of this dress is very insubtantial. That would not have been a deal breaker but for the unfinished edges on the V-neck and around the sleeves. I would not have ordered this had the description included this fact; these edges would drive me crazy, plus, in my opinion, they make a garment look cheap (and of course, it is cheaper to manufacture this way). I am 5'9" tall and there was not really enough space between the shoulders and the band under the breasts. I think I would have been pulling it down all the time and then checking to make sure my bra did not show. This even looks to be the case on the model.

        This dress is a perfect weekend dress--very, very comfortable and roomy. It does not wrinkle and the fit is true to size. The actual color is remarkably accurate to the online image.

        Need to fix petite sizing!!!

        I loved this dress on line and order Boden every season so was excited to try the petite sizing of this dress. I am 5'3 and 133 lbs so wanted it to hit above the knee. The problem is with the flare and hip circumference with your petite dresses. Everything fits up top perfectly, then the dress flares out SO much more than with the regular sizes. The hip circumference is much larger than the size equivalent dress in the the regular range. This is a problem with most of the petite range dresses I have ordered and hope that Boden fixes this issue next season. Another dress going back because of this problem . Will have to order a regular size 8 and have it hemmed :( Otherwise, great quality and feel.

        I buy a version of this dress every year. I love to see what new colors Boden will come up with. I'm an at-home mom and this dress is perfect for throwing on and looking great while still being comfortable. I have super long legs, so I get the tall size to give a bit of extra coverage- which especially helps when sitting. I sometimes put a white camisole underneath during the day if I think I'll be bending over a lot (like at school with the kids).

          I thought the blues petal print looked LOVELY in the photo. When it came, though, it was very, very comfortable and seemed well-made, and was true to size, but it was so casual and felt a little more dowdy than stylish in person.

            This was the perfect dress for me. It fit like a glove. I am 5"8 and wear a size 8. It hits me directly above the knee and really well at the bust line. I will be getting the same dress in a different print!

              I am both style-driven and comfort-driven... and this dress fits both categories! I love that it looks great... it's so pretty... and soooo comfortable! I am 5'8" and 165 lb and went with a 10 L (I like the added length). I throw a denim jacket over it and run errands or out with my family. I don't like to wear shorts so this will be perfect for the Summer. I can't wait to wear it on our beach vacation! I've been complimented every time I wear it ... it's so flattering. I like it so much...I bought 4 more in different colors!

                This dress is a perfect weekend/casual wear. Very comfortable, and a feminine alternative to running around in jeans or shorts. Fabric is a sturdy cotton, with plenty of stretch, that washes well. Not wrinkle resistance, but does not wrinkle easily either. Comfort of a great t-shirt, but in a dress. Regular Length is just above knee. Great quality. I ordered in blue.
