        I loved this dress, this was my post baby 'my brothers wedding' dress, searched high and low for something that I felt ok in, this dress was perfect. Well made, and a beautiful colour (blue!)

          Ordered the blue and heather for choice. Opted for the blue because it looked good with my Tenerife tan. The heather was lovely though. I am going to wear it to my nice's evening wedding "do". Also got the lovely and comfy silver sandals shown in the pic. Just need to get a little clutch to complete the outfit. I had to get the size 10 instead of my usual 12 because it fitted better round the bust. Can't wait to wear it, feels floaty and feminine. Expect I will get asked where I got my dress from as is usual whenever I wear my Boden togs.

            I bought this dress for a wedding and wasn't disappointed. I loved the colour (not too pink, which I wanted to avoid!)
            Personally I would have preferred it slightly longer (an inch or so) but I am bordering on tall (5'7") - hence 4 stars and not 5

              Gorgeous dress and colour (cobalt) which I have purchased for a special occasion. I bought a size 8, but slightly bigger than I thought, especially around the bust and shoulders. I am still deciding whether to keep it - think the size 6 will be too tight around waist and hips. Lovely dress and drape and really is beautiful so may be worth keeping and having altered slightly.

                  unflattering and boring shape, but might suit someone with a curvy shape or heavy bust.

                    The dress is absolutely amazing. Love all the clothes from Boden and always keep coming back for more. Although i really wish you would make your special occasion dresses in petite.

                      I bought several dresses to try for my brothers summer wedding. I'm not keeping this one, but it is a beautiful dress in the lavender, it fit's well and is flattering to my pear shape. It is a great dress for weddings and the petal detail makes it that bit more special and feminine. I went for the silk tiered dress in the end but this is well worth a try for any special occasion.

                        Love the dress - bought the cashmere cardigan in the same colour to compliment it and it does. Bought for a wedding and think it will look nice. The flower band is lovely though could be a bit lower. Looking forward to wearing it.
