Boden dress that’s ‘flattering’ around the tummy comes in five prints
Boden shoppers are praising a ‘beautiful’ dress they say is especially ‘flattering’ around the tummy. Now, the Amber Pleat Jersey Midi Dress is available for £119 on the Boden website – and it comes in five different prints for summer.
The easy-to-wear style is proving popular thanks to its comfortable fit and feminine silhouette, making it a versatile option for holidays, garden parties and everyday wear. Designed in a fit-and-flare shape that gently skims the body before falling into a fuller mid-calf skirt for an elegant finish, the dress is available in sizes four to 22 and comes in petite, regular and long fits.
Box pleats are said to add movement and structure, while puff sleeves balance the silhouette and give the dress a modern, romantic feel. Made from a soft blend of cotton and modal jersey, it offers a breathable, lightweight feel that’s comfortable enough for all-day wear.
The pull-on style also makes it an effortless choice for warmer days – simply pair with sandals for an easy summer outfit. Available in a choice of five prints: calla lilly, burnt orange, navy, hunter green and olive, it’s a flattering and versatile addition to any wardrobe, blending comfort with a polished, feminine look.
An alternative to this is the Yellow Floral Short Sleeve Midi Dress for £39.99 from New Look. This midi dress features pink flowers on a yellow background, and has a round neckline and short flutter sleeves. It is available in sizes 6 to 20.
Next has the Love & Roses x RHS Floral Motif Printed Ric Rac V-Neck Midi Dress for £66. Available in both regular and petite fits, it comes in sizes 8 to 22 and is crafted from a ‘comfortable cotton-viscose blend’. It features a bold all-over botanical print and has puff sleeves and a v-neckline.
Shoppers have raved about the Amber Pleat Jersey Midi Dress from Boden, with one writing: “Gorgeous dress. Perfect fit for me. I am between a size 12/14 and 5ft4 and I bought the 12R. Hangs and drapes beautifully and very flattering around the middle. Good length.”
Another added: “I love this dress! It fits perfectly and the fabric is great for hot summer weather. It is the perfect addition to my work wardrobe.” A third person commented: “Love this dress. Perfect for holidays. Easy to pack, and very comfortable.”
Some people removed a star as one person said: “Really nice dress. Longer than expected but okay. Fits well and size good. Nice quality material and lovely pattern.” Another added: “I live in Boden dresses. Comfortable, easy, washer/dryer. With this shopping haul I bought seven dresses and kept four. This dress was one that I returned. 4 stars because it was definitely Boden high quality. But the ruffled sleeves just felt like too much on this dress. Not my favorite style.”
