    Comments about Boden Women Ruffle Front Dress:

    I bought this dress for a wedding sometimes I have to upsize with Boden although I am normally a 10 in other stores so ordered a 12 petite just in case - it hung like a tent and the colours were very wishy washy. Had colours been right I would have re-ordered in a 10 petite but not convinced that would have been right either! I did like the frill on the front but it did nothing for my figure!

        Comments about Boden Women Ruffle Front Dress:

        I think Boden has changed sizing lately. This dress in 12L is a size too big. I need to return it. When I put it on, it felt light and yet it the fabric drapes well over my curves! The neck line is good for pear shapes.
        When I tried it on again, I thought I looked a little frumpy and I need to get 10L instead. It's feminine and my husband liked it.It's for work only.

          sorry Boden, I think the fabric is ok but whilst i am 56, not quite yet ready for a zimmer & felt a bit grannyish in this style of dress but perhaps it's just me.

            Lovely dress, got this in the pine spot although it is more sea blue for me but anyway the fit is great, the fabric is soft and floaty and I feel feminine and sexy in this. I have worn it casual with cardi and belt and also just as is. Had lots of lovely comments and am very pleased with it. Length is v good, bust shows just a touch of cleavage and slight cap sleeve v flattering. Just lurve this!

              Comments about Boden Women Ruffle Front Dress:

              I think I have found the perfect dress! I chose the petite option as I am 5ft 4in. The hem stops about an inch-1.5 inches above the knee. The neckline is flattering, the fabric is very soft. Very stylish. Well proportioned - fits perfectly in all the main places - shoulders, bust, waist and hips. I ordered size 10 and 12 and felt the size 10 was more flattering at the waist.

              This was a considered purchase as I don't normally spend over £100 on a dress - but was lucky enough to purchase during 25% off dresses promotion.

              Nice one Boden.

                  Lovely soft material and great fit for me size 14 R with 36 DD bust, other Boden dresses have been too tight around chest so this one is perfect. Really like the button at top of V neckline, for once a perfect neckline that doesn't show too much cleavage, just a hint! Dress up with a jacket for work or special occasion but will look equally stylish with a cardi. Opted for sea blue so will find a coral colour cardi.

                    Bought dress for a wedding, but is a bit too casual, and also shapeless, although nice fabric, the colour Sea Blue just a bit dull.
