[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My first Boden purchase, thanks to PPs. My hard-to-fit hips and boobs look great! But I don't love the prints.

I have big hips, and Boden dresses are by far the most flattering on me. Beautiful dress! You might want to check out the Florrie dresses. They’re my fave. [/quote]

DP.  Boden is very hit or miss for me these days, with more misses.  But I have -- and really like -- this particular dress too!  I'm petite (5'3", size 2 or 4 in dresses, and not many curves), and this dress is very flattering on my body too (I got it in petite 4).  I have it in the solid navy, and it was on steady rotation for the office last summer (nice and cool and easy to dress up with jewelry and shoes).   [/quote]

Anyone know how the Amelie is on long torso bodies? I'm a 'pear' shape - long torso and hold my weight in my hips/thighs/butt.[/quote]

I don't thave that one, but I'm the same shape and I often order the "tall" for Boden even though I'm only 5'4".  It makes for a longer torso, and I don't mind a couple extra inches on the length.  One of my gripes about Boden is that the dresses are often short-waisted, which makes me look pregnant.  I really like that Florrie with the black and white pattern -- might get that for the office in summer -- could look professional with a black cardigan or jacket and black ballet flats, I think.[/quote]
