Makes me look pregnant!

The reason i have sent this back is because the gathering under the bust was just too much for me and didn't flatter my figure. I have a flat stomach and this just made me look pregnant (which I'm not)! There's too much fabric in the gathered section under the bust. So sadly I've returned the dress.

    Had to wait ages for this but no mind as it hasn't exactly been warm enough to wear it so far! Lovely,lovely print (I ordered blue petals 10R) lovely colours
    and very flattering I would imagine to any size woman. The only down side and this does bug me as I've had this problem with many boden dresses is the length - I am 5'8" so quite tall and should according to boden be ordering.the long length . However even though I always order the regular length the hemline is often still too long. I feel that unless it sits just above my knee it is very unflattering to my legs and they are relatively slim - when it sits just covering or below the knee I think it adds a large dose of frumpiness to the overall look and I wish boden would realise that a lot of their customers do not necessarily want to cover up their knees (I'm 33 - maybe il feel different in a few years!) however I've decided to keep it as I love the upper part and print and also my hubby caught me trying it on and said it was very nice!

          Really disappointed,waited fro 6 weeks fro this to come into stock. Finish around the neck is raw and very poor. I have had several items from Boden and quality is never an issue. Dress is being returned.

            I just wanted a daytime dress to take on holiday, wear to go shopping and not "feel" I was wearing it. This dress ticks allows me to feel very comfortable and I know it looks good as the first time I wore it I got asked by a complete stranger where it was from. I love the pattern and colour (I had the lilac one) it has a great fresh look and very good quality fabric.

                  Even better than last season's casual jersey dress! This season's is more flattering (fits better) and true to size. I am a size 10 and a size 10 fits perfectly. I bought the pink which is gorgeous. Well done again Boden.

                  I was so disappointed with this dress. Having bought many jersey dresses from Boden before and loved them all, I have had to ask for a refund on this one as after just two washes, it looks shabby and like something from a jumble sale. Also the material was frayed around the neckline which just added to the whole shabby look and not in a good way!
