A ‘flattering’ midi shirt dress is making shoppers feel nostalgic due to it giving ’70s retro’ vibes. British fashion brand Boden is adored by many for its stylish high quality garments perfect for wearing to the office, special occasions and more.
One of the retailer’s latest must-haves is a Laura Jersey Midi Shirt Dress that’s available in several patterns, and Boden’s customers are full of praise for the different designs. This includes a gorgeous Autumn brown with navy polka dot spots that the website says is ‘selling like hot cakes’, with many snapping it up.
The shirt dress comes in sizes four to 22 and is available in three lengths – petite, regular and long. It usually costs £90, but for a limited time you can use a special code to get 15% off, bringing the price down to £76.50.
Boden says the garment combines the ‘best bits of a shirt and a bias-cut skirt’. The swishy dress falls to a calf-grazing hem and has a detachable fabric belt to cinch in your waist if desired.
One delighted shopper who has already added the Laura Jersey Midi Shirt Dress to their collection gave it five stars and said: “Love this, very flattering. I bought the navy dress in petite. I thought the length (just below the knee) would be unflattering, but its flowing cut makes it look quite classy with a wedge heel. Sleeves look good rolled up or down.”
A second added: “Great, easy to wear dress that can be dressed up for the office or down for the weekend. Love the pattern of the green, navy and white colourway.”
A third happy shopper commented: “Exactly what I was looking for. I want a plain dress that is a bit (but not too) stylish for work that is easy and comfortable and this checks the box. I’d say if it had pockets then it’d be even better. The sleeves are a bit long for me and I don’t like folding them up so I will get them shortened at a tailor, but overall this is a nice dress with good weighted materials. Also true to size (I am a UK 6) without being too baggy, frumpy or tight.”
Sadly one person wasn’t completely satisfied with the dress. They gave it four stars and explained: “Love the green/navy print. The style of the dress feels very 70s retro to me. Disappointed with the quality of the fabric – much thinner than usual Boden… I’ll probably keep it but wish it were better quality for the price.”
You can buy the Laura Jersey Midi Shirt Dress from Boden for £90. For a limited time, you can bag the dress for £76.50 when you enter the code L2F1 at the checkout.
