While I am comfort driven and tend to the casual, I still like to dress well. This dress was lovely and it killed me to send it back. Had it in blue and red and loved them both (the red leans a little to coral and was a great color). I have wide shoulders though and am hard to fit - it's me not Boden or this style. I'm sure on most people it would be fine.

I really liked the look of this dress. But when I got it, it didn't look so great on, not on me anyway. It made me look a little like an "old lady." maybe I should've picked a brighter color. I wantedt to like it. It was very comfortable and I could see myself wearing it for any occasion any day of the week. But because it did add any "pop" to my look I had to return it. I think it would be a great dress for someone else though.

I ordered this in a 4 (red) and a 6 (blue) because I was unsure of the sizing due to other reviews. I'm 5'5" 120 lbs and usually wear a Boden 6. The 4 fit perfectly - fitted but not too tight. The skirt is just full enough to give the dress a little swing without being too full. The 6 seemed disproportionately large in the bodice as compared to the 4. I love both colors - maybe I'll exchange the blue for a smaller size rather than return it!

Super cute! I wore it to school last week and got lots of compliments. I love this dress. The arms were a little snug, but overall, it's great.

I ordered this dress in my usual size 6 and didn't find the top part too big. Because I teach, I need enough room in the shoulders to reach up and write on a whiteboard. Only rarely do I find enough shoulder room in Boden dresses, and this one was OK. I'm not thrilled with the dull color choices but very much like the different print on bodice and skirt.

This is a very cute design. After reading other reviews, I went down a size and it fits perfectly. I chose the blue and it is a very pretty color. I am looking forward to wearing this dress this summer, and will wear for casual work days and out with friends. I am glad I decided to get this one, I was pleasantly surprised!

This skirt was really cute, but ran a little large for me. I'm 5'5" and 130 lbs, usually a 6 in Boden items, but the 6 waist was too large. I ordered the white, and even though it was lined, you would need a slip underneath. I'll order it again in a smaller size.

Lightweight, fits great. One complaint is that it wrinkles easily which doesn't make it as ideal for traveling

I was really hoping to love this dress when I tried it on, and it did not disappoint. Flattering fit, stylish design, perfect length. Dressy enough for a daytime party dress, yet simple enough to pair with sandals for a summer shopping day! I am 5' 4" about 140 lb and the size 8R fit great. Although Boden dresses are a bit pricey, this one will be your go-to dress all summer long and is worth the splurge.

Loved the photo, but oddly Bunchy in the bust area. Have to return it.
