I wear a 0 or 2 petite in J Crew and a 4 in Boden.

I am 5'7" and weigh 110-115. Narrow hips, average chest and not much indentation with waist (never measured anything). I typically wear a size 2-4 in pants but it just depends on company, cut, factory, etc. I wear a 4-6 in blouses. Boden's size 4 fits me perfectly in pants, blouses, skirts and dresses. In fact, they fit me better than any other brand I have purchased. I usually have to have everything altered and I have not had to alter one piece of clothing I purchased from them. They are well made and the price point is very good for the quality and level of detail. Factor in the fact that they require no altering and its a great price point.

Boden runs small. I wear xxs at Jcrew and 00-0 at banana. I'm a solid 2 at Boden and even some skirts and chest on dresses are tight. They have a generous return policy. 100 pounds, 34b chest, 25-26 inch waist

I haven't bought anything from them in a while but for years I always ordered up 2 sizes. I wear a size 0 or 2 at loft/Ann Taylor/gap/banana and could barely squeeze into a Boden size 4. So I would get 6 and that would usually work. Also conversely, I felt their kids clothes ran large, my 11 year old still wears some size 9 Boden pieces.


i agree with you. I think they run small. i'm 5'8" and 120 lbs. I'm usually an XS or size 0 or 2 at Ann Taylor or J Crew but a 4 or sometimes even a 6 at Boden. Agree to read the reviews - they are usually very accurate.

And skirts and dresses are short! Make sure you check the measurements. I'm 5'6" which I don't think is tall, and I always have to get a long to make them work appropriate (and I'm a professor, so it's not like the standard is that high - or low? maybe in this situation).

Skirts, dresses and tops are roomier. I don't think it is bigger necessary, the cuts aren't just as clingy as US brands.

I always wear a size 6 in Boden pants, which is the same as in JCrew and BR and Antrho. I tend to wear 4s in Gap and Ann Taylor.

I'm 5'7 and 125 lbs and wear a 2 or XS in Boden. Sizing is on the slightly larger side of true to size. If you're kind of in between sizes, definitely go down a size. I agree with the previous poster who said their tops tend to be a little boxy.
