I ordered two tops from Boden recently. I returned one that I'd wanted for my dressy capsule as the fabric was scratchy and it was a bit tight in the shoulders, a rare problem for me, but I'm keeping one of the ravello tops. The tops seem true to their measurement charts.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sizing-4#post-1543325 Fri, 21 Aug 2015 20:37:20 +0000 Keix 1543325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Click on the sidebar advertising 20% off on this blog to get the discount, it seems to be cookie-based:&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://mysuperfluities.blogspot.com/">http://mysuperfluities.blogspot.com/</a></p> <p>(Not mine, but I love Dina as a blogger and she also does a great job of collecting Boden item reviews from various sources.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sizing-4#post-1543315 Fri, 21 Aug 2015 20:12:11 +0000 Beth Ann 1543315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Let me know how it works for you, Thistle!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sizing-4#post-1543304 Fri, 21 Aug 2015 19:42:58 +0000 abc 1543304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha well keep us posted.

The quality is definitely worth tailoring, and they usually add fun details. My blazer has a fab London print lining and varying colors on the buttonhole bindings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sizing-4#post-1543139 Fri, 21 Aug 2015 15:33:31 +0000 Beth 1543139@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thistle, I have this very sweater in my cart too!</p> <p>IMO, Boden sizing runs slightly small and a bit short waisted. The quality is very good. Keep an eye out for percentages off and free shipping/free returns! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sizing-4#post-1543121 Fri, 21 Aug 2015 14:54:31 +0000 Angie 1543121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, yes. Fun sweater, Thistle. And &nbsp;you made Finds work.&nbsp;</p> <p>Cobalt, when did you last order from Boden? They USED to run very big - and I was sized out. That is no longer the case (I'm the same size).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sizing-4#post-1543116 Fri, 21 Aug 2015 14:50:21 +0000 cobalt 1543116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Funny, I always find Boden sizes to run large and the arms to be especially long. &nbsp;I'm on the small end of the size spectrum, though -- maybe they just don't adjust "enough" the further they get from the midpoint. &nbsp;Their published garment measurements do seem pretty accurate. &nbsp;</p> <p>I too love the tweed blazer they're offering this fall, but the measurements show it would be too wide in the waist &amp; hips for me. &nbsp;Would love to know if the quality is good enough to justify additional cost for tailoring! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sizing-4#post-1543112 Fri, 21 Aug 2015 14:46:27 +0000 AviaMariah 1543112@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That sweater is beautiful and good news about the accurate sizing charts. &nbsp;I've never ordered from them either but that news makes me willing to consider it. &nbsp;(They are one of my favorite brands for little girl clothes. &nbsp;I stalk their stuff at Nordie's until it goes on sale.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sizing-4#post-1543111 Fri, 21 Aug 2015 14:32:04 +0000 abc 1543111@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thistle, this sweater is gorgeous! I hope you find a good fit. I was thinking of asking the same about Boden. I have my eye on a gorgeous tweed blazer of theirs but haven't pulled the trigger. I will be anxious to hear any feedback you have as we are similar sizes and I agree with you on variation of sizes at different ends of the spectrum. Good luck and please keep us posted. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sizing-4#post-1543082 Fri, 21 Aug 2015 13:49:20 +0000 Angie 1543082@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They often run a size small - especially in bottoms. Their size charts are VERY accurate so go by those measurements. Their fits CAN work for curvier ladies.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sizing-4#post-1543079 Fri, 21 Aug 2015 13:44:20 +0000 Jenn 1543079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Based on things you've said in the past, I suspect we're around the same size, Thistle... I'm sized out of a lot of designer lines, at the higher end of standard sizing. It's been a while since I ordered from Boden, but I remember them running roughly TTS in tops. I've had issues with the arms being a little short, but that could just be my height and preference for longer arm-length. I'm pretty aggressively pear-shaped, and the pants I've ordered from them have run tight in the thigh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sizing-4#post-1543065 Fri, 21 Aug 2015 13:13:49 +0000 SkiDiva 1543065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Check the size chart for the item. One of my favorite things about Boden is that their size charts show actual garment measurements, which is so helpful when ordering online. I wish more stores would do this, although I have found that most places can give you the measurements if you ask. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sizing-4#post-1543062 Fri, 21 Aug 2015 13:06:43 +0000 Thistle 1543062@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really liked the Vince sweater from NAS, but I was sized out. I found a similar-ish one from Boden.</p> <p>I have never bought anything from them, nor even held a garment of theirs in my hand. I believe they have pretty good quality based on Angie's recommendations.</p> <p>Wondering how their sizing runs. Are they geared more toward a slim triangle like JCrew, or a curvier shape like Ann Taylor?</p> <p>This piece is back ordered 10 weeks, so if I miss the sizing, I may not be able to size up or down. The one review says it runs big, but running big at a size 2 is not the same as running big at my end of the size spectrum. </p>
