"Please restock this skirt, bought the brown thinking it was casual- wore it to work with brown ruffle linen top. Everyone said it is very smart. It is perhaps too thin for the winter, and the picture does not do it justice, but great for spring/summer.
Thank you Johnnie Boden for the lovely clothes I am fifty but feel thirty in your stuff your clothes take years off me- how do you do it?"

"Great skirt if you have slim hips and a larger waist. Other Boden skirts have fitted me OK, especially if they are A line cut. I am usually a 12 but order a size up. Even at a 14 this skirt was tight on the hips but swimming round my waist. It meant that it rode up and did not looked flattering. Its a shame as I love pattern and deep orange/red colour. The quality of fabric is great, I was not too keen on the lining though."

"I have just received the orange option through the post, after previously buying the Dotty Flower skirt in brown. I ordered the size 10 and once again, fits like a glove! The wonderful vibrant colour of the orange colourway has brightened up my wardrobe no end!! Am planning to wear it tomorrow and cannot wait!! Excellent value especially when purchased as a sale item. Wish I had gone for the other two colours when they were in stock!!"

"I got this skirt in an orange 10. It's perfect for the intermediate weather here over tights with boots. Both bright/ fun and incredibly flattering. I feel pulled together teaching in it, and never dowdy. The sturdy fabric holds a nice line."

"This is a great skirt. The print really cheers up a winter wardrobe but it's not so overpowering that it's difficult to combine with other items. Lovely, classic A-line cut which looks great with boots. Beautifully made and a steal at the sale price."

"I have just received my dotty flower skirt in a size 10 long through the post this morning...it is wonderful and a lot sturdier than originally anticipated in terms of the material. It could definitely be considered as a transitional piece for your wardrobe as it is warm enough for the winter months but light enough to take you through the seasons. I went for the brown option and it matches excellently with other items of knitwear in the bitter choc brown colourway that I have previously ordered from Boden. Well done again for your committment to producing excellently cut garments, at the right price! Thank you"

"Received my skirt today at the bargain sale price of £18. Have had a few problems with Bodens sizing inconsistencies but this item is a real hit. Fits fab on the waist and hips. I ordered a 10R and at 5ft 7ins it sits in between my knee cap. Im a bit disappointed that it is not orange as shown in the picture but more a dark orangy red. I love the fit so much, I have just ordered the purple."

"I received this skirt in brown today and immediately tried it on. Wow!! Love, love, love it! It fits my rather odd midsection perfectly. Thick-waisted(even when not 15 lbs. overweight) and relatively narrow-hipped, the skirt skims and flatters beautifully. Looking forward to wearing it into the spring (and the other colors I ordered, too!)"

"This was my second Boden skirt and i love it! Smart enough with a shirt for meetings and work, casual enough with flat boots and a big jumper for the school run..I'll be living in it this winter! I'm a 10 regular (5" 2") and the hem sits just above the knee, slightly loose on the waist but that allows for a big lunch."

"I have the purple version of this skirt, and it looks great with jumpers of just about any colour - particularly greys, pinks and dark browns. I
agree that the hip seems a bit slim compared to the waist, but it seems to fit me ok (I'm between a size 12 and 14, and went up for this skirt which was the right option for me). The fabric and lining quality is great - a really smart, simple skirt which is lifted by the great colour and print."

"The fit of this skirt in a 12R was good for me, I often have a different problem with Boden clothes being too roomy on the hips and thighs but too small around the waist.I have slim hips but a bit of a spare tyre around the middle and this skirt skims everything nicely.The length ended mid knee which looked good with boots and not as good with shoes so have ordered one in longer length too.The purple print is beautiful and the fabric is less thick than I expected but this means it will be useful all year round"

"I would have given this 5 stars if it were truly orange as it looks online and in the catalog. The color is really much more red, which was a little disappointing. Otherwise, I'm pleased with the fit and style. I'm 5'4" and the skirt hits just below the knee. Great for work."

"As always the quality is wonderful! However, what most Boden reviewers say about fit is usually true. While the size 10UK in this skirt seems to fit me better in the waist than many of the other skirts I've bought from Boden, the overall fit through the hips is a little odd and rides up slightly. Still, you've got to love the pattern and the vibrant color (more red than orange). I have to admit I'm eyeballing the purple version with an insatiable appetite. Thanks Johnnie, just please work out the kinks in your sizing!"

"I really liked these skirts. They are a bit different than what you ususally see, and I can wear them to the office and out at night. The fabric is a nice weight. My one complaint is the sizing. I am a 6 petite in USA sizes, sometimes wearing a 4 sometimes a 6. I ordered the 10 and the fit was quite large in the waist and tight in the hips. I am not sure I feel 100% comfortable in this skirt as I feel it clings and then gaps. I could have the waist taken in, but the cling would still be there. I have worn other Boden skirts without problem. Perhaps the straight cut is not for me."

"Another classic Boden skirt which I could have spent years going out in if it had fitted. The 12R - my standard Boden size - was far too tight on the hips so I've returned it. It was also too short being only 21.75", not the 23" given in the garment measurements details. Will try the 14L see if that's better."
