Comments about Boden Women Shimmering Sequin Dress:

I love the style of this dress. The only probem is that the bottom half is slightly too tight. I'm petite and often have this problem with shift dresses because the hips are cut for people with longer bodies! It's the same problem here, although this dress doesn't really look like a shift. Problem could have been solved by putting a slight A line into the skirt or making a petite version. Ah well, another one to go back. Great value in the sale though if you're standard height.

    Comments about Boden Women Shimmering Sequin Dress:

    Have worn this dress 3 times now and it has retained its shape and colours beautifully. Fits very well on me; I am tall (1.81 meter, slim and have a C cup). The only thing I need to be careful about is that it creeps up when I sit down, so it suddenly becomes a mini-skirt then...

        Comments about Boden Women Shimmering Sequin Dress:

        There has been so much feedback on this dress and its 'near miss' status!
        I took a punt on it following the 'too big on top & bottom' comments and have to say its nearly perfect, but in the end, just a bit tight on the rump.
        I am slim size 12, 32C, 5'' 7', bit of a tummy and bought the dress in a size 10. The dress is beautiful, it doesn't gape on my chest at all, and sits really nicely, but is just a bit tight on the bum and hips. If you are a slim size 12 with not too much bum and a good rack, this dress is an absolute bargain!

          As other reviewers have said, this dress does not fit well which is such a shame as it is lovely. I bought it in the blue thinking it would be a bargain in the sale and it would have been if it fitted but it was too big at the hips and bust so had to go back. Shame.

            I ordered the blue version of this in the sale, like another reviewer I took a flyer on it - wore it just before new year to a birthday party and had loads of compliments. Felt good not to be wearing boring black! Certainly the top part reveals a bit of cleavage but nothing fell out!! I would recommend at current sale price to take a chance and order this. I'm pretty much a standard 12 with a bit too much tummy and found the style flattering

              This dress arrived just in time for the new year event and I simply liked it. Wears easily and comfortably(okay; if you sit down it becomes a little short, but who sits down at a party anyway?). Good materials, good fit for me altogether, no problems with the bust being too wide (I have 70C). Received lots of compliments actually.

                Just bought a few dresses in the sale and this was my wildcard. Ordered the blue and was a little uncertain what to expect with the colour and fit but the dress is beautiful. Colours much more subtle at the bottom than appears in the photo so make the dress look very expensive and classy. Does gape slightly at the top so I may add a stitch. Absolute bargain that will work well for evenings out and holidays. Can't wait to wear it.

                  Just love this and am delighted to have both colours in my wardrobe - bought beige/black at full price and am thrilled to get the navy/pink in the Sale!! the bodice does gape a little but nothing a wee stitch couldn't solve! Have had nice compliments and just feel so comfortable wearing it. Am thrilled to have discovered how well Boden clothes fit me. Thank you.

                    Worn a couple of times, had quite a few compliments, bust gapping slightly, so can expose quite a lot of cleavage. Beautiful dress, good quality, and a very good price on sale!
