Boden fixed wrap knitted dress - does anyone have it?

[LetThemEatCake]

would the crossover bit allow for breastfeeding, if pulled down? I read a review that said the wearer needed a camisole so presumably there is some kind of opening/ the crossover is not stitched together?

[LetThemEatCake]

sorry - this dress

love the useful cake blocking view of dress Styling genius, that

[cornsillk]

There's a video there which gives a better idea.

[LetThemEatCake]

oh my god. Can't believe you made me watch that



what is she simpering about?????

[tulpe]

looks identical to the merino cross over tunic (still available in the sale)

only one colour/size left here

I have that tunic in magenta. The cross over is very loose and you do need a cami beneath, really. I think it may allow for bfing.

[tulpe]

oh and it is definitely thick enough to wear over opaques or leggings as a dress.....or at least I am intending to

[traceybath]

Oh my god - thats hilarious.

Looks very clingy to me - how much longer to go ltec? I had dc3 5 wks ago . . .

[CarrieDababi]

how are you?
i'm good been missing half the summer, rl has been mad including getting the dreaded swine flu!

anyway back to the dress, ys i like it, i would perhaps wear a nursing vest underneath, for a bit more nork coverage.
i love the green one

[cornsillk]

Carrie have you namechanged? I'm thinking that cottonwool balls are a clue

[LetThemEatCake]

congrats tracey!! I've been thinking of you - hope all is going well. Did you have a boy or girl?

I've got 4 weeks to go .... definitely ready for a new wardrobe...

tuple - argh!!! that tunic would be good but I don't like the colour t's available in. But what a bargain! how annoying!! I am pretty tall though so I dunno about wearing over tights/ leggings, esp not with post-partum legs...

[Platesmasher]

You can almost smell the vomit on that models breath.

[cornsillk]

Platesmasher has your drunken splurge arrived yet?

[CarrieDababi]

good clue isn't it

i'm going to post pictures of my actual house on here to get ideas on decorating.

[Platesmasher]

Yes, addressed to Wing Commander Platesmasher!

Then the next day a letter arrived from boden and i started to panic that is was a warning that as i was a wing commander I would be getting called up, and i'd be off to iraq in my flattering wool dress and quite frankly unprepared for battle.

Dress is nice, just have to figure out if it can be accessorized into a wedding outfit.

[cornsillk]

I was wondering where you'd got to missus. Good to see you back on!

[cornsillk]

PMSL at Wing Commander! That's proper pissed that is!

[CarrieDababi]

thanks corny
how are you? had a good summer?

[Platesmasher]

[joliejolie]

OMG!! That model probably wears the same size as my dd. Surely she is a Mini Boden model!

Why why why why why don't they use average size models? Even two models, one for the 14's and one for the 8's. How are we supposed to know how that looks over love handles?

[CarrieDababi]

omg ps you did a drunken boden order as Wing Commander Platesmasher! that is brill

[cornsillk]

I've had a nice Summer thanks Carrie. Swine flu sounds grim - we've not had much of it where we are yet. Have you been busy RLing all Summer then? I'm in awe of your self-control. I spend far too much time on here.

[Platesmasher]

There were so many options for title when i was entering my details.
I couldn't NOT be wing commander!

[cornsillk]

There's a wing commander option on Boden!

[CarrieDababi]
