      Love this skirt. Have not washed it yet, so can't comment on wash quality. Bought the purple and it is darker than in the picture. Received many comments on this skirt!

        Comments about Boden Women Washed Velvet Mini:

        I have this skirt in black, and its a a truly great investment, what some would call a "wardrobe staple". I wear it mostly for evenings, my favourite combination being with a dark purple cord blazer, barely black tights and black mid heels for dinner. Its the perfect combination of demureness and sexiness, coming slightly below the knee as a lady-like skirt should, and I would wholeheartedly recommend it.

          I have this skirt in 3 different colours and 2 different lengths. I wear the longer length when I don't want my knees to show! It is warm and washes beautifully and doesn't need ironing (if hung to dry on a hanger). [...]

            This skirt is my favourite! It looks fab, the fabric is really soft and a bit stretchy so it's comfortable, great length (I'm 5'0). I got it in the same at [$] so an absolute bargain. What more can I say!

              I ordered this in the sale and read reviews stating the red was rather vibrant -however I was not prepared to unwrap an orange skirt!the hue was most unattractive on my anglo-saxon skin(would look stunning on darker skin)so despite the excellent fit and quality of the skirt I have had to return it

                Was rather put off by the 'mini' description of this skirt but needn't have been, as the long length sits nicely on the knee and is quite long enough. Went for the Leaf which is a lovely bright addition to my wardrobe - a lovely green with a background that is technically navy but is so dark that it passes for black as well. Have worn this lots and it's been hugely complemented upon. A real add to the wardrobe, get one while you can.

                  I ordered the red skirt in a 12r. It's fabulous - I love it. It looks great with long black boots or ballet style pumps and can be dressy or not. It's a generous size though, particularly on the waist. Really good price too.

                    Really lovely feel and sassy looking skirt! Lucky to get the print I wanted in my size, it's generous and perhaps could have sized down, but there are none left and it's too lovely to give away, looks great. More of this in more great fabrics please.

                    I ordered the brown version in the sale and when it came the sizing was very odd. Although it says 18L it patently is larger than that. I wear it with a belt and it's OK-just! I also ordered a red one, same size, this one IS an 18 long. Something wrong somewhere.
