      This dress brightens up the greyest spring day. The colours are really vibrant and the fabric hangs well. The detailing at the neck is gorgeous! I took in the skirt slightly as it was a bit too A-line for my liking. Looks great with a coloured belt as an alternative to the tie.

        Comments about Boden Women Spring Tea Dress:

        This is a versatile dress that can be used everyday with a cardigan or smartened with a jacket for the office. I bought the multi primrose hill and the grey background looked actually lighter than on the picture which is a shame: it would have looked nicer in charcoal grey. The dress is also not as fitted as on the picture so may not appeal to everyone. Still, it is pretty, feminine and very spring like. The pluses overcome the minuses.

          Comments about Boden Women Spring Tea Dress:

          I had to send back my first order as the size 10 was too big but it is a good fit a size smaller. I agree with other reviews that the under skirt is on the small side. I find it very flatering on and love the longer length which covers my knees standing and sitting (5.8) The belt does crease when wearing but the material falls well. A very comfortable dress to wear as well as being smart!

              This is a gorgeous lightweight dress, bought to wear for a wedding in Africa. I'm quite curvy with an apple shaped figure but this dress skims all my lumps and bumps and is quite flattering!

              Gorgeous fabric.Neckline very respectable and flatering fit. Usually wear separates and felt this would make a nice smock top. At 5'7"+ I selected Long but it fell to mid calf.Hoped to blouse it up with sash belt but the back darts and rigid side zip didn't allow. Returned.

                I'm just so disappointed with this dress - it has such potential. Absolutely love the prints and would easily have bought more than one version, but for the unflattering neckline. Just makes me look matronly instead of elegant. PLEASE do the same dress & prints next year but with a lower / v neck line!

                  had to exchange this for a size smaller than my usual, but love this dress so much. very ladylike and pretty without being twee, and comfy too. other patterns are too similar to justify having 2, but would have ordered another if a there was a plain option available
