A flattering, comfortable floral dress is a welcome addition to any wardrobe, and shoppers have found one from Boden that ticks all the boxes.
Originally priced at £159, the Violet dress in ‘Dahlia trail’ has been reduced by 60% to just £63.60 – but shoppers can get it for even less using the code FGXA at checkout. This will give customers an extra 10% off, reducing the dress to £57.24.
There are four other patterns available: ‘Wildflower stamp’ (reduced from £146 to £78.84), ‘Gallery blue dahlia stamp’ (down from £136 to £73.44), ‘Firecracker red palm flora’ (was £146, now £78.84), and ‘Meadow paisley’ (previously £136, now £48.96).
The dress is made from 100% cotton, with a flattering fit-and-flare shape and a maxi-length skirt that falls to the ankle. While it will be one to bring out every summer and for holidays, we’d pair it with tights and boots for autumn.
The dress is a maxi length, intended to fall to the ankle, and it has pockets.
According to Boden, the dress is the « quintessential wear-everywhere style. The print does all the talking, so you only need sandals and a woven tote to complete the look. »
The Boden dress boasts 4.5 stars from 134 reviews.
One shopper said the dress « fits perfectly » and is « very well made, » while another called it a « a great dress which will take me through to autumn with a splash of colour. »
« Absolutely beautiful, » a third wrote. « Love it because it’s crisp cotton, gorgeous pattern and it has pockets! Makes me feel good wearing it.
« I’ve got two Boden patterned cotton dresses now and I always get compliments on them. Boden is the best and only place to shop for colourful bright clothes. »
A potential drawback of the dress, as pointed out in a couple of reviews, is that it may not suit smaller frames, with one shopper saying that at 5’5 » the dress « swamped me ».
But reviews were generally positive, with one saying: « Yet another delighted buyer noted: « I absolutely love this dress. It fits beautifully and I have had many compliments whilst wearing it. Bought in the sale too so a bonus! »
