"I love this coat! I ordered in a size 10 purple. fits beautifully over my curvy E cup bust my only complaint is the sleeves are a fraction short. I am an average size 10-12.
Would not have paid full price though"

"I bought this coat in purple and I absolutely love it! I'll probably wear it until it falls apart. I get so many compliments on it, and it fits good. The coat feels more like a sweater than a winter coat, but it works fine for California's weather. The fit is OK, although I prefer a more fitted cut, but it works fine with sweater underneath. The polka dot is unbeatable -- it is just so fun and fashionable."

"This is one great coat. It is not thick enough for the really cold winter days but if the temp gets to 40 or above, it really is ok. I thought it would be so thin based on the other reviews. I think it keeps me warmer than I thought it would because it is also a long coat and covers more of me than my other coats. I can fit a sweater under it, but not a bulky sweater. I got the purple and the color is gorgeous. I bought it in the sale completely thinking I would wind up returning it but I just couldn't part with it since it is probably the most beautiful coat I have ever seen. The regular price would be too expensive. I am size 10 with Boden and it fit well."

"You can't help but feel special in this coat. Amazing flattering cut , true to size, wonderful fabric although thinner than expected upon receipt. You can stand out from the crowd and lap up the compliments in this masterpeice. worn on a night out recently received 9 fab compliments in 3 hours. I can't wait to wear it again, a great one to team up with the lawn everyday bag and the olive stretch boots. I don't think i'd have got it at full price though to much of an extravegance for me."

"Have just bought this coat in the sale and really like it. Yes I did have to shorten the sleeves by 9cm, (am 5' 4") but I also liked the fact that it is not too heavy a fabric. My only gripe is the hemline. It has been stitched such that it is seen on the outside of the coat. I would perhaps expext this on a duffle coat, but not on a garment that originally cost £175. It is a really cheap way of finishing it. I shall now spend an evening undoing it and putting it right."

"I ordered this coat in the sale and was really disappointed when I received it. The fabric wasn't what I expected at all and the fit was poor across my bust (the coat seemed too big here when it fitted everywhere else). I'm afraid it did nothing for me so it is being returned. I seem to struggle with the fit of Boden clothing in general so it is probably just me...."

"Fantastic! This coat makes me smile when I wear it - bought the purple one. I also have the purple everyday bag and they look great together. The fit is fine, bought size 14 which I am so no need to go up a size which is what you have to do sometimes. Only thing is that the coat is beginning to bobble aroudn the arms now....."

"I bought this coat in te sale when a 10 appeared in the grey/lime combo, as no way could I have bought it at the original price. The fabric is beautiful, very soft and lovely colour and pattern, and Im in agreement that it would be too thin for winter but great for an in-between winter/spring coat. However I returned it, I was very sad to do so but the bust just didn't look right....it loked like it was moulded at the chest area, similar to a moulded bra, and unfortunately looked odd as my bust is not large enough to fit it! Less moulding and more drape wuld have been perfect as it fitted beautifully elsewhere."

"I wanted this coat so much in the autumn but just could not justify it. I noticed recently a blue one in a size 10 was back in stock and decided finally to order. I am so pleased I did. It is beautiful and a perfect fit, very flattering. With spring here it is the right weight. I so love your coats and jackets although there are not enough days in the year to wear all that I have. Again, thanks Boden, although my husband is not as grateful!"

"I received my purple spot coat today, having just snapped it up in the sale and I'm very happy because it makes a perfect spring coat. There's no way you could wear this coat in the cold winter we've just had and the full price is not justified in my opinion. However, I find the sale price fair for what this coat really is: a stunning spring coat with a good fit and beautiful colours and patterns."

"i order my regular Boden size and it fits great--- i really like how it fit around the waist. . as previous customers mention it is very light: but i live in California --for me it is perfect - four season coat. i bought Grey/green combination--love the colors and especially polka dots--would not mind if colors would be brighter. but overall-very nice coat for the sale price."

"My husband bought me this in the sale in the Plum colour. I'd had my eye on it all season but I've got quite a few lovely coats and resisted! I was thrilled when I received it, the size 8 fitted perfectly, I'm 5'6" and usually an 8 sometimes a 10. The fabric is slightly light weight for winter but the detailing and finish is excellent. Wearing it with my purple ruffle dress and my contrast heel boots I feel fab! Also the classic collar style gave me somewhere to pin a gorgeous brooch! I have no hesitation in recommending this coat."

"I have just received my grey coat with green spots and am very pleased with it. As I am tall, the sleeves are just right for me. However, do not think I would have paid full price for this coat as the fabric is not what I expected but it is good value at the sale price."

"I bought this coat in the navy & purple colourways intending on keeping one, but kept both. The purple is divine, particularly the lining, the navy equally so in a more classic way. I am 5'7' size 12, and the sleeve length is perfect. Coat sleeves should not be any shorter than this, or they compromise the whole garment. I may have occasional misgivings with Boden quality and sizes at times - but this coat is worth the investment."

"I was so excited to read reviews about the "too long of sleeves" on this coat because I knew it would fit me. I am 5'8" and average build, but I have trouble finding sleeves long enough b/c of my height. I ordered a 14 and it is plenty big on me with the sleeves being perfect. The shoulder/bust area is also perfect. I LOVE this coat!"

"I bought the brown coat in the sale and am really pleased with it. I am a 10 and found the 10 a perfect fit - generous enough for a thin jumper underneath, unlike the Great Cord Coat in size 10, which was slightly tight on me across the bust. The sleeves are slightly long, but not as bad on me as some other reviewers had said. I love the turquoise lining and the spots - really cheery on a dull day. The sale price made the coat good value, but I wouldn't have bought it at the full price. You'll have to stop making so many lovely coats and jackets - I have the short velvet coat in 2 colours, a cord coat and this coat, as well as 2 lovely Boden coatsfrom last winter's sale - help, I'm a coataholic!"

"I love the look and fit of this coat, I have the green one and the green spots and electric chartreuse lining are very zingy on dull days. For the price I would really have preferred a 100% wool fabric but I suppose the blend makes it more durable.
I am a pear-shaped 12/ 14 and opted for the 14 which I am pleased with as it fits jumpers underneath and is not baggy due to the frock-coat like styling.
First purchase from Boden and pretty chuffed with it! Banish grey days and boring black!"

"A beautiful coat in both looks and fit, soft and lightweight yet warm and roomy enought to fit a jumper on underneath (although probably not an extra-chunky jumper). SO smart and stylish, and the fabric as usual for Boden has that extra quirkiness and 'not from the high street' appeal, but without being over-the-top. Loved the fact that the spot design is reversed in colour inside the coat, and the lining and trims (buttons etc) seem good quality. Overall a very well made coat, but a little on the pricey side - was glad I got mine during a promotional offer period as otherwise I might not have ordered it."

"I love this coat! Love the long sleeves, the distinctive style, the fit. Because of the vent at the back, and the fact that the buttons don't go all the way down the front, it's great for when you're in and out of the car. Stylish and versatile. The only thing I miss is that I would like the pockets to be a bit lower down, and then I could put my hands in them, but perhaps I should just buy a pair of gloves instead!"
