I'm a women's size 8-10, and 5ft tall. Do you reckon I should order a size S or M dress from Jonnie B?

Thanks

Look at the measurements of the dress you are considering, then look at the measurements of a comparable dress in the main boden range. Johnnie B is for skinny nine year olds and up, so I'd err on the larger side to be safe.

I have quite a bit of Johnnie B, though I won't buy adult Boden any more I am quite keen on a lot of the teen stuff, not too mention how much cheaper it is.

Sadly much of the sizing is classic all over the shop Boden. I am a 12-14 and have things in M/L/XL. Sil is the same size as you and also a Johnnie B'er and would buy mostly M or L. I would advise getting stuff in at least a couple of sizes to try and sending back what doesn't fit.

Don't know how tall you are but most of it is very long in the arm, body and leg, great for me as I am 5'10", so odd though as one of the things that put me off proper Boden is it is never long enough in the sleeve or body.

Makes you wonder where Johnnies head's at, he must think long skinny teenage girls retract as they reach adulthood.
