What do you think to this as a casual lunch date dress ?

Ooo love it x

Much nicer in the colours, rather than in the navy and white combo. I really like it.

I don’t know why people shy away from colour, like the poster who said that you were ‘brave’ for considering the dress. I think the pattern looks confident and stylish. Much more so than some saggy black camouflage!

I love it but am about 3 stone too heavy for it myself! I’m sure you’ll look great, hope it goes well!

very conservative and colorful

I’ve always loved a knitted dress. I had quite a few in the past from Boden and the quality has been fab and none of mine have been lined. This is fab - I’d love to be slim enough to wear it.

You can see that the Boden stylists have struggled with it - the nude tights/black shoes are NOT good. They’ve also made a hash of styling the other colourway, with the red shoes that look oddly dated.

The dress itself is nice and the colours are better than the navy/white version. Great for a lunch date. But tights and shoes are an issue I think. What do you plan to wear with it OP?

*green shoes, not black. But they still look horrible with it.

I love it.
Unfortunately I would look like a knitted beach ball in that!
I like the other colour option as well.

Not sure moving the belt up would work. Firstly, there would be nothing to hold it in place and secondly a belt that far up usually only goes on a dress with an empire line. I think you will need to have a bit of curve to wear this and it may have looked better with a bit lower neckline to break up the fabric a bit- not boobs out. But it is lovely and I'm sure you can carry it off.
