When it comes summer outfits, a shirt dress is hard to beat and fashion fans have spotted the perfect option for addding a pop of colour to your look.
The Boden Flo Cotton Midi Shirt Dress comes in a white and blue colourway, with floral tile patterns against a tiered silhouette, which is sure to flatter any shape.
It also comes with a detachable waist belt in a matching print, allowing you to go for a slimming cut or a more comfortable relaxed style. That’s not all, as you can fit your lip balm, phone or cards in the two side pockets to keep your hands free.
The elegant shirt dress is available to purchase for £135 and fans said the colourway is “the best”.
One commented: “Gorgeous colour combination, so Boden! I love it”. A second guessed that the colour matching is “inspired by Santorini”, an idyllic Greek island in the Aegean Sea.
“This dress is beautiful and comfortable. Love that it has pockets. I received many compliments when I wore it yesterday for church service and a family luncheon. I’m 5’7.5″ and weigh 118 pounds and got a size 2 petite,” a third added.
Some said it’s a beautiful print but sadly not the one for them, with one three-star reviewer explaining: “Beautiful, vibrant pattern and breathable fabric. I really wanted to keep this dress but the seam on the waste line gives it too much volume. I am 140 pounds and most of that is on my hips so I didn’t think it looked flattering on me.”
But others said they loved the lining and particularly the “light blue detailing on the cuffs and the belt are beautiful additions”.
The Flo shirt dress comes with other colourways and patterns, like a green and white version in maze print. It’s now on sale for £94.50.
For a more casual style, you can try White Stuff. The brand’s Naya Jersey Printed Tiered Dress(£65), also in white and blue, boasts a beautiful button-down front, giving plenty of coverage, and a floaty skirt that skims over your tummy ‘without being voluminous’.
Meanwhile, the Roman Blue Floral Print Tiered Midi Dress is currently on sale for £32 down from £42 – and it comes in yellow or green.
