Boden boat neck tops, advice please?!

[DoorsAndWater]

Hi

I'm considering using a voucher to buy a couple of the boden boat neck tops, does anyone have any idea what they wash and wear like? And sizing? I've had a breton from there before and found it quite small fitting but I have big boobs so probably should have sized up, want to order tonight so any help would be much much appreciated

I second the request as I too have a voucher and big boobs

I read the reviews for anything I'm interested in buying, gives me a good idea on fit usually. And check the size guide too for measurements.

Me, three! Did they send us all vouchers?! Thought I was special

I sent a Breton back recently because it was small, especially in my arms, oddly (I do not have large boobs or muscly arms) and much thinner fabric than they used to be. I am buying my Bretons elsewhere, voucher or not.

I thought I was special too!

I have two black boatnecks. I went down a size to a 14 for the most flattering fit but my norks are modest (38c) so bear that in mind.The material in black is lightweight so gives a bit but not so much it becomes shapeless. Have washed brilliantly.

They didn't look so great to me in lighter colours because they looked semi-transparent owing to the material.

I have a breton from last year which has washed well but is not as easy going to wear as the boatneck as the material feels stiffer and it is cut less generously. The reviews this year are saying it is coming up small so depending on how you like to wear it go up one or two sizes.

Thanks so much for your replies, really helpful, think I'll get one to try in a couple of sizes and then order a couple more if it's a good fit, I do like thin material as I tend to layer with vests anyway - I too thought I was special

We are special!

I got one in white. Material VERY thin.

They are quite generous I think. But the breton is small. I ordered the pink animal top from the clearance bit in a 10 because that's what was left, and the breton in a 14. The animal top is bigger.

I think the bretons are small. I usually get into an 8 in Boden Ts but am waiting for a 10 to compare- 8 is a bit tight for warmer weather.
