"I now own all three of the swishy skirts (thanks for the returns!) Beautiful, well made, very flattering, length is perfect just over the knee for me at 5'7. All three skirts are stricking with boots and tights, wonderful addition to the winter wardrobe. I have no complaints, well,they could cost a little less..."

"I ordered the daisy skirt and it is PERFECT. Such a beautiful pattern, with lovely detail for the 'eye' of the daisy. More beautiful in person than on the website, I must say. Tons of compliments. I'm wanted a slightly longer wool-blend skirt for the cold months, so I ordered the L instead of the R (I'm petite) and it fit perfectly."

"I have bought several appliqued skirts from Boden over the years and this one was disappointing - The Colour and quality of the ribbon are not up to standard and that's what lets this skirt down.
Its going back"

"This skirt is an excellent example of why I love Boden. The Fit was perfect, the quality is high and I honestly don't know where I would find anything this beautiful. I bought the black skirt with the striped applique and it is simply stunning. The attention to detail is amazing. And it is fully lined! Nice Winter/Fall skirt as it is a wool blend, wish I could wear it year round!"

"I was really impressed with this skirt. I ordered the 12L (I'm 5'7") it came up shorter than I was expecting but that wasn't a bad thing. It fits beautifully and does 'swish'. A work colleague told me today that the guys at work watch me when I walk across the office when I'm wearing it. I'm hoping this is not just the skirt (or that I have it tucked in my knickers!) but I'm grateful that it may help :)"

"I am very pleased with this skirt. It seemed a bit stiff upon arrival but after one wear the creases from shipping softened and the material drapes nicely. I wear a US 10 but since this skirt sits at the waist the UK 12 was perfect. I am 5'5" and the regular length hits just at the knee, most flattering for my figure. I will wear this skirt throughout the Fall/Winter."

"Sadly this skirt did not meet expectations. I bought a riboned skirt from Boden last year and have worn it a lot - its lovely, but the cut on this one meant that it stuck out at the sides almost like a flying saucer! Needs to be more A line rather than a Y up-side-down."

"This skirt is Boden at its best! Lovely feel, lovely look, excellent fit. I bought the one with daisies on (I really didn't like the look of either of the other two designs) and it's smart enough for work and fun enough for non-work. Best of all, so far I haven't seen it on anyone else yet so, please, nobody buy it!"

"A quality skirt, can be dressed up or down, will be great for the winter. Fit is correct to the sizes there has been no skimping on the material you may even be able to go down a size if you have skinny hips. A bit expensive but I hope to get a lot of wear out of it."

"I'm a US 10 and ordered a UK 14 but its too big so I'm exchanging it for a UK 12. It looks wonderful - I ordered the black with gray ribbon and its very slimming. The wool is thick but I expected that after reading the reviews - can't wait for colder weather! My husband was very complementary about this skirt - a definite keeper :)"

"I bought the grey with black appliqued swirls in my usual size. I was really looking forward to its arrival. It was huge and the fabric was stiff. Lovely looking skirt however. I returned it and purchased 2 sizes down. It came today; the fit was great BUT it really stuck out at the bottom sides . Sadly I'm returning it. I thought about altering it, but the not for the price. This skirt was softer than the larger one I returned. (??)"

"I like this skirt a lot but it's quite heavy and it hasn't been cold enough to wear it yet. I'm sure it'll be great for winter though. Very useful for work, a bit different but still smart enough. Fit is lovely although it's maybe a tiny bit too long for someone who is 5'2". It really does stick out at the sides though!"

"This is a really, really great skirt for the ever-so-slightly-pear-shaped among us. A-line, but not actually too swishy, so there isn't a great big bunch of fabric pooling around your hips. Fabric is a tiny bit stiffer than I would have liked, but I guess that will soften with wear. Five stars!"

"This skirt is lovely- great fabric, feels very classy on. The stitching is fetching. The quality is A+. It was a bit too long for me- skirts below the knee make my calves look fat- so I did return it- but begrudgingly."
