Boden black maxi dress

[Nippysnippy]

has anyone tried this? It seems to have mixed reviews. Is it really poofie on the empire line and does sizing down help eradicate the maternity look? I like the idea of having one with sleeves and suit a flat empire line as I have a wide ribcage and little waist to speak of. Thanks for any guidance!

A little bit Morticia, I feel.

Have you tried it then shewho?

I have tried the very similar Phase Eight one - and Morticia Addams was who I saw in the mirror.

I have several of the Boden maxis from various seasons though, with that crossover, empire waist styling and they are lovely and comfy and very good quality heavyweight stretch jersey. I didn't find them too poofy, and I don't think the addition of arms would alter that. I think you have to try it and see really.
