    Never before have I received so many unsolicited compliments from friends and colleagues on something I have worn. I just love this jacket, especially as it was so well-priced on sale.

      First time i have ordered for myself and not the kids. Saw this jacket in sale at xmas but was put off by poor fit reviews. However with spring upon us and still at a good price thought i would try it out. I am 5ft 10" and dress size 10 -12 so ordered 10 as noted sizing was slightly on large size. Would agree that jacket is a little short ( just sits on jean waist band ) but sleeve length perfect . Ordered the grey colour and it has a real preppy feel. Just what i have been looking for.

        Comments about Boden Women Velvet Carnaby Jacket:

        What a beautiful jacket! I love to wear really stylish, fitted jackets and this is a perfect addition to my wardrobe. It is very comfortable and extremely flattering - I am quite curvy so I buy my jackets small as I don't do them up (I am normally a 10 but got the jacket in an 8). I bought the black with the pink detail and it looks so lovely.

        I think the USP for this jacket is that you can wear it to work and then wear it straight after work on a night out. Will wear with a black skirt and boots for work and black skinny jeans and pumps to go out. I highly recommend the black jacket as a very useful addition to your wardrobe - I think it will be something I will grab to put on whenever you aren't sure whether to be dressy or casual - this will cover both scenarios! Thank you Boden!

          LOVE THIS JACKET ESPECIALLY THE UPMARKET GROSGRAIN BINDING BUT HAD TO MARK IT DOWN AS I ORDERED A SIZE 16 AND IT IS FAR TOO BIG BUT THE UPSIDE IS I LIKE THE STYLE SO MUCH I HAVE ORDERED BOTH COLOURS IN A SIZE 14 AS I THINK THE GREY WILL LOOK FANTASTIC IN SPRING WITH A YELLOW HANDBAG TO EMPHASISE THE BINDING.
          THE JACKET WILL TAKE YOU THROUGH THE DAY TO AN EVENING IN THE PUB WITH FRIENDS

          Comments about Boden Women Velvet Carnaby Jacket:

          Really disappointed with this as it really does look great on the hanger - very stylish and unique. However the cut and fit were simply awful. I'm 5'9'' and wear a size 12 but this was just baggy and loose all over. It wasn't a sizing issue it's the cut.

          The sleeves were too wide to look stylish and the overall fit was too loose. It also came up too short. The end result is quite frumpy.

          If the whole jacket was tightened up a bit for a more fitted/tailored look, and slightly longer it would have truly been a hero piece in my wardrobe but it was not to be.
