fit large, but also seemed like unforgiving fabric
This fit way too large but if I had sized down I am not sure how flattering that would be either. It could probably use lining.

perfect skirt
This skirt is so flattering, fit was perfect, feels cozy too. Pretty much all seasons, but is a little thick so might not be the best on a super hot day if you will be outside a lot, but I wore this in august when it was in the 80s, low 90s and was fine.

gorgeous dress tts
this dress was gorgeous, I sized up to a 12 based on other reviews, but should have stuck with my normal size 10. I was still able to wear the 12 though, but it was roomy would have looked a bit better in the 10.

fit was narrow in the hips
I usuallylove the way boden fits and this was very awkward on me, otherwise it's a pretty piece. The fit was snug but boxy, not good for an hourglass shape

I wore it for family Christmas photos and it was perfect!
Great coat! I got a lot of complements on it. Definitely a statement piece. Fit was roomy, and I could have sized down to wear it as a dress coat. But with more layers it could have been more true to size.

Cute skirt! Perfect for hanging out by the bonfire
Perfect for an out door socially distanced fall party. Fit was very true to size, typical of other boden items. Thick fabric. Nice in between length- kind of mini but could wear to casual work place with thick tights.

I've found that other seraphine styles run large, but this one runs a bit small and short
Overall liked the style, but it was a bit short for what would otherwise be a great wear to work dress. Will probably need opaque tights if you are on the taller side, or you may need to size up. It wasn't an issue for me because it was for a halloween costume.

Perfect dress for my cousin's baby shower!
Great comfortable, cute dress, with a perfect look for a baby shower. Also, very cute and comfortable on a hot day when I was running around hosting an outdoor event. And, comfy fit for me at 17 weeks pregnant.

pretty color, weird fit
This dress is very low cut and felt a bit loose on top but tight at the waist. The fit seemed very odd to me.

So, comfy and perfect for a casual office. I teach and I wore it to work on a course prep day.
It was true to size. I probably could have fit the medium but I went with the large so that it was easier to get over tops with sleeves. this worked well. It's nice and soft and can be rolled up into a bag easily if you are not sure whether you will need an extra layer. A nice in between dressy and more casual piece.

perfect dress for an early fall casual wedding
Rented this for my cousin's casual backyard wedding in the early fall. It ended up being a pretty hot day, and I was warm, but not uncomfortable because the fabric is very light weight. the cut is very flattering for curves, although the 8 fit quite snug while I usually wear a 6 or 8. I got lots of compliments on the unique print!

I ended up exchanging this one, because it was too short to wear to a wedding. Could be nice for a party/ going out. The pattern is very pretty.

I was going to end up wearing this to a wedding but had to exchange it.
It shows a lot on top and it's tight so it would not be appropriate for many events. Also, its also very itchy. You won't want to wear this for long.

The fabric is unbelievably gorgeous.
The fabric will make you feel like a princess- lining is 100% silk and the exterior is a silk blend- with just enough shape for the structured skirt. You will feel like a million bucks in this dress and you'll want to sleep in it. Fit was perfect for me as well. Both of my dresses looked a tiny bit worn ( but nothing to noticeable). I wore it with a regular bra and this worked well.

I got a ton of compliments on this dress!
Very flattering fit, especially for curvier types like myself. You can wear a regular bra with this dress so it's very comfortable. The full skirt is fun for dancing. Also, the fabric is quite nice, feels high quality.

The simple dress worked well with my accessories for a 1920s wedding. It's a very flattering fit
Flattering, easy fit. The one I got was already pinned in the bust, unlike the one I tried in the store- which is useful it can be a bit low cut. It's also a bit low cut in the back- I was able to wear a regular bra but needed to select one with a thiner back band.

This worked perfectly for a great gatsby themed wedding. I got tons of compliments!
Overall its a nice size to add a fun vintage touch to an outfit and provide a little warmth (it's more like a scarf than a jacket though in terms of additional warmth. The only problem I had was that the clasp was not working. It may need a repair.
