Fashion lovers have found a bargain dress from the Boden sale and it’s been selling like hot cakes. The Kate Midi Shirt Dress, which comes in the brand’s signature vibrant colours, has been reduced from £125 to a more affordable £62.50.
The navy dress with a “London Town” print shows landmarks like the Big Ben, Tower Bridge as well as the capital’s iconic phone box and red bus. You can get the midi, knee length number in a regular fit and it features a matching waist belt that can be tightened to accentuate your waist or worn loose for a more casual look.
Originally priced at £125 and now 50% off, fans said the Kate Midi Shirt Dress is ideal for autumn when looking for a bit more leg coverage without opting for a full maxi dress. It also paris well with any footwear – be it boots, flats, trainers or heels. The Boden model opted for the red Heeled Leather Knee Boots for a pop of colour, reports Manchester Evening News.
Boden’s Kate Midi Shirt Dress has received an impressive overall star-rating of 4.5 out of five from nearly 120 reviews. One satisfied customer shared: “I now own four Kate dresses. They are perfect. I am so happy I bought the vertical stripe pattern right away because I don’t see how it isn’t going to sell out.
“The colours are stand out. The fit is perfect (I am 5’5″ a size 14). I am already considering buying the bird print too.” Another shopper wrote: “Fabulous dress. Have been eyeing this all season and now finally got it in the sale. The navy dotty in a 8 Petite is a perfect fit, much smarter and with more shape than other shirt dresses I have.”
“Perfect for work, the unlined fabric and full-length sleeves make this perfect for spring/English summer/autumn,” a third person mentioned. They continued: “I loved the silhouette of this dress. Fits great, except a little tight across the bosom. If you are trying to define your shape, this is a great fit. Not oversized and very tailored. The print was a bit busy and would prefer this to be in a solid colour.”
While the Kate Midi Shirt Dress has received three-star reviews, it encountered mixed reactions from customers. One shopper criticised the fabric choice, saying: “I am a big fan of shirt dresses and shirts with pockets. Love Boden dresses. My size is 8P.
“This one was just perfect fit, colour, design and tailoring. But was so disappointed with the fabric. It will crease very easily. Also fabric is light so should have had lining underneath. I had to return it.”
Conversely, another customer expressed delight over their Boden find: “I wasn’t looking for you at all and now I have two. I grabbed the Kate dress in navy polka dots and before I even took it off, ordered another colour.
“I feel so put together and comfortable in this style. Please make more of these for the women who love sleeves and especially love the option of sleeves that can be rolled up.”
