I've never bought from Boden...

...but have seen a nice Breton dress I have to have!

So tell me:

Is the quality of their clothes any good?
Is it true to size?
I often see discount codes here - where can I get one?

Thanks!

Suzy: Good quality generally, the sizing though is a bit funny this season so be careful! Maybe size up if you're not sure.

If you look under the thread here on mumsnet "promotional codes.." you should get the latest discount code, theres normally a 15% discount and free postage/returns code knocking about or a £10 of a £30 spend code.

I have bought a couple of their tunics and have had many compliments when wearing them. I have seen the dress you like and am thinking of buying that too! I find the quality of the few things I have has been excellent and is usually true to size. DS has some trousers and sweatshirts from Boden which he has worn and worn and they have always washed lovely and kept their shape.
The only code I have at moment is 10% off when you spend £100 plus free returns if that helps.
Happy shopping!!

lnar i think was 15% off

I've just used XTHB (I think)from an older thread for the £10 off a £30 spend

If you put /ar at the end of the web address you go to a 15% site for Red readers.

then put lnar in the promo box.

Not ordering anything from them myself. all so over priced.

Just taken delivery of the Carnaby Coat. Going back, it's too big and the sleeves are waaay too long. The quality of the coat is lovely though.

RQAM is giving 15% plus free delivery and returns just now!

I have LNSU code from Sunday Times which gives 15% off - said to be valid till 25 November. Was also offering a free bag (shopper) to people who'd never ordered from Boden before.

On sizing, I've found it's variable, and agree particularly so this season - so probably worth ordering 2 sizes if unsure - the code gives free returns.

I think quality is generally fine in relation to price. Ie not of standard of, say, Jaeger, but pretty good. I never pay full price for anything - try only to order when 20% off, or at least 15%, so don't think prices (except for a few items) too extortionate.

It`s one of my favourite places to buy clothes

cornsillky · 27/08/2010 18:21

linky to the dress please Smile
I send back a lot of their stuff 'cos it doesn't always fit, but ened up buying a fair bit as well.

Suzy1975 · 28/08/2010 10:08

Here's the dress

Thanks for the info, everyone!
