Boden shoppers save £34 off ‘very flattering’ dress in seven colours

Shoppers who struggle to dress stylishly when the weather is hot can instead of fussing with various separates, just throw on a cotton or linen dress to look effortlessly chic while staying cool and comfortable. Linen dresses, like Boden’s Anna Linen Tiered Midi Dress currently 25% off in the sale, are worth their weight in gold. They not only look smart, making them ideal for both casual events and posh occasions alike, they’re also incredibly easy to wear without any compromise.

The high street shop’s linen midi dress comes in eight stunning colours including black and foxglove purple. For those who prefer lighter shades when the sun is out, it’s also available in white and a fashionable buttermilk yellow version. The Anna Linen Tiered Midi Dress is priced at £136, but there’s a way to get it much cheaper. Those who apply the lesser-known discount code, 7N7G, to their basket can secure 25% off, reducing the total to £102, with free delivery included.

The midi dress is made from a super soft linen that wicks away moisture and keeps shoppers cool when it’s hot outside. The shoulder smocking leads to puff sleeves and the tiered skirt with side pockets is the icing on the cake, reports the Manchester Evening News.

This dress features a fully lined bodice for comfort and a mid-calf length design. The fit and flare style suits various body types, with a fitted bodice that cinches at the waist to create an hourglass silhouette.

Alternatively, consider Nobody’s Child’s Navy Flossie Midi Dress, priced at £85. It has a rounded neckline, short puff sleeves, and a button-front design with a panelled waist that flatters the figure. The centre slit allows for ease of movement. River Island’s Navy Metallic Puff Sleeve Smock Midi Dress is now £25, reduced from £60.

Boden’s Anna Linen Tiered Midi Dress has received positive reviews, with an overall rating of 4.6 out of five stars from over 70 customers. One reviewer said: “I would buy this dress again. Perfect summer dress, the purple is a gorgeous colour.”

Another customer wrote: “Previously bought a similar style dress from Quince and the material was stiff and the fit boxy, so I was delighted to find this dress that fit true to size and made of material that conformed to my body. It’s an easy outfit for mornings I am tired but want to feel put together at work. Also cute enough to wear out to happy hour at the end of the day.

“Love this dress,” a third reviewer said. “Very flattering, fits well across the bust and flares nicely in the skirt – not too much material. Lovely material – beautiful colour.”

However, not everyone was equally impressed with the Anna Linen Tiered Midi Dress. One reviewer gave it three stars, saying: “The green isn’t as vibrant in person as it is online. The fabric also seemed a little dull and the shape wasn’t as flattering as I’d hoped.”

On the other hand, another reviewer raved about their latest Boden purchase, saying: “This dress is a great staple piece to have in my wardrobe – simple, stylish, and easy to dress up or down. The fit is really flattering, especially with the tiered design that gives it a nice shape without feeling too structured.”

They added: “The only downside is that it does wrinkle easily, as expected with linen, but that’s part of the fabric’s charm. Overall, a solid go-to for warmer days.”
