BODEN Flirty Ruffle Jersey Dress WH168 RRP £79
Brand New Without Tags

Guaranteed authentic perfect Boden surplus stock. 


Highly sought after "frivolous, flirty and feminine" dress. 



As you can see, my size 6/8 (UK SIZE) mannequin looks amazing in this dress. The super soft jersey clings to every subtle curve of her solid plastic figure. And the ruffle detail makes my mannequin's modest bust appear far more ample.

I would recommend this dress to anyone who 1) likes it, 2) likes super soft jersey dresses, 3) is happy and comfortable having this dress clinging to their figure. This is not a structured dress. Your body gives it structure.

I've mentioned in the title the "DVF Print" because this print reminds me so very much of the retro geometric prints favoured by Diane Von Furstenberg. But of course her jersey dresses tend to be made of 100% silk jersey which is Dry Clean Only, unlike this easy care dress which is about 90% cheaper than a DVF dress.

If you are particularly thin (or even if you're not particularly thin) and would like to look more voluptuous, this dress will do that for you. If you don't mind wearing very high heels with this dress, you will also look taller.



This is what BODEN says: 

"It's ideal when you need to feel good without appearing to have agonized over the occasion. This easy to wear, slinky day dress can easily be dressed up for the evening, ideally with a nice pair of wedges.  It's also easy as pie to wash."


I'm not exactly sure how easy pie is to wash, but this dress is reasonably easy to wash. It's machine washable. If you put it inside a mesh laundry bag, it will be protected from more aggressive items in your wash such as items with vecro hooks.

  • 96% vicose 4% elastane
  • Machine washable
  • Semi fitted shape
  • Empire waistline
  • Beautiful ruffle detail around the neck and waistline
  • Hem finishes at the knee
