BODEN sizes

[nutcackle]

Are the generally considered to be large or small or spot on ??

My mom has spotted a Boden dress on Ebay that she wants to get for Dd2 but it is age 5 and Dd is nearly 6. She is mostly though still in age 5-6 clothes from normal shops.

Ohhhh and I have just seen some trousers that i'd like for her, would 5-6 be too small do you think ??

Yeah, dresses are usually big. dd has a fave dress that she wears all the time, she's 4 and a bit and it's a 3-4. 5-6 from Boden are huge on her.
Fitted T-shirts not so much tho.

Hmm right ok. So do you think i should go a size up for tops then ??

I think trousers wise I'd have to go for 5-6 because some of her trousers now are still too long for her.

Depends how tall she is, I do find Boden come up big. DD1 is 113cm tall and boden 5-6 fits her perfectly. DD2 is nearly 4 and has just gone into 3-4 and these are a bit big on her. You need to measure her.

I'm findng them big for the boys. Ds1 is 4.5 and in age 2-3 tops and ds2 is almost 3 and his fleece is 18-24 months!! Ds1 is slightly smaller than average for age but ds2 is pretty average.

Has yer coat arrived yet gdg?????

Boden heights for children:
age 5-6=116cm tall/chest60cm/waist55cm
age 7-8=128cm tall/chest64/waist 58

My dd is nearly 7; don't know how tall she is, but appears merely average when compared to her classmates. I have some Boden things for her. she is now wearing mostly 7-8, that includes a dress she started wearing in may at age 6.5.
Hmm - maybe she is "bigger" for her age than I thought! Generally you're all thinking the sizes are generous. You will need to measure your dd.

NO! My coat is still not here!! I've got them chasing it up now....

Very annoyed actually.

oh dear, was just wondering if you'd received that yet.
