Comments about Boden Women Ruffle Front Dress:
This dress is probably my current favorite Boden dress. The silk is excellent quality and is very wrinkle resistant. Classic design, very flattering. I have not needed to clean it yet and I hope it will still retain the fabric quality with cleaning.

Comments about Boden Women Ruffle Front Dress:
The top of this dress has sleeves that start from the midline creating a "bat" effect on you arms. Not flattering!

Comments about Boden Women Ruffle Front Dress:
I was looking for a fun dress for semi-formal dinner. While the print was great (I love polka dots), the fit of the dress was off. The material hung/gathered too much under the arms, but a size down would have been too tight in the chest. It fits looser in the waist, which I was looking for, but it was an allover boxy look. There was no wow with the dress, it was just ok. So for me it wasn't worth keeping, it sadly had to go back.

Comments about Boden Women Ruffle Front Dress:
I love this dress! It fits perfectly and the color is beautiful! Nice and bright, yet still understated! I am a teacher, so this dress is perfect for work with low sandals. It can easily be dressed up for a wedding. I normally wear an 8 in Boden dresses and ordered an 8L based on other reviews stating the dress is short. The long fits perfectly, hitting just below my knees!

Comments about Boden Women Ruffle Front Dress:
I am saving this to wear at my daughter's First Eucharist. She will be wearing the Boden Broderie Party Dress in cream which has a blue sash. We will be 2 Boden peas in a pod! I am soooo looking forward to feeling comfortable & pretty on that special occasion.

Comments about Boden Women Ruffle Front Dress:
I'm so sad this dress didn't work out. I'm sometimes a 4, sometimes a 6 so bought both and was swimming in both....except for the arm holes! They're cut SO high that I could barely move my arms. Also, since each dress is made from a slightly different cut of fabric, the polka dots on the collar of one of the dresses looked like a clown collar. Very unfortunate and no way to predict or avoid that - the other dress's collar was just fine. Oh well!

Comments about Boden Women Ruffle Front Dress:
I thought the print was so adorable - and the pine color as well, so I took a chance on this dress. But sadly, it wasn't flattering at all - the waist, as usual with Boden dresses, is high and not very well defined, and the cut of the sleeves made my shoulders look heavier than they are. Maybe if you're more of an apple shape rather than a pear?

Comments about Boden Women Ruffle Front Dress:
This dress is so cute and different, and I'm thrilled that Boden has petites now (I'm 5'1")! I loved everything about this dress EXCEPT it is a little short. I think it is meant to be that way because the petite size fit in every other way. However, when I sat down...well, I showed a bit more leg than I felt comfortable with. And if I'd sat around for more than a try-on session, I'm afraid I would've showed more than that (eek)! So after much hemming and hawing, I regretfully sent it back. Love the ruffle...it lays nice and is not too fussy. Dots are my favorite. Love the green. It was going to look so nice with a pair of nude heels. If you're young and not afraid to show off your legs all the way to the top, then by all means, flaunt what you've got in this cutie of a dress!

Comments about Boden Women Ruffle Front Dress:
This is a beautiful dress, and I love the ruffle. Although I find the dress very flattering in the waist and hips, the bust and shoulder areas do not drape in a faltering way. If I had a larger chest it may look better or if I alter the shoulder/bust area. I would recommend this to someone with a fuller figure because it is a beautifully made and pretty dress. I'm just not sure it is the most flattering on my US6, small chested, runner figure.

Comments about Boden Women Ruffle Front Dress:
I like the lovely silk fabric and the print, which looks a little bold online but in reality is rather soft. At 5'5" 133 pounds, I ordered the 8 (US) and it's not too tight - in fact, it's kind of roomy around the waist. The length hits me just above the knee. Paired with a little cropped cardigan, it will be perfect for an early spring party or fancy dinner.
