Boden's biggest sale of the year with 60% off dresses and more
Just in time for summer dressing, high-street favourite Boden is offering massive discounts on more than 1,400 items - including heatwave-friendly dresses Boden has just kicked off a huge sale, and the much-loved fashion retailer is slashing prices by up to 60% across womenswear, childrenswear, and more. Whether shoppers are in the market for new summer dresses or need a special outfit for an upcoming occasion, there are huge discounts that are too good to miss right now. To make things easier for Boden fans, we've selected a range of deals across clothing and footwear, with a mix of price points starting at £31.50. It's worth pointing out that although the brand's sale is dubbed ' Up To 60% Off ', there are bigger savings to be had. One of the biggest offers we spotted is 65% off the Joanna Cap Sleeve Wrap Dress, now £31.50 (was £90). Ideal for occasions, this stunning yellow midi comes in petite, regular, and long lengths. A wrap dress is a timeless style that effortlessly complements any figure, so it's no wonder Boden shoppers are calling this piece 'very flattering'. While most reviews of the Joanna dress are positive, some buyers did mention issues. One person said: "The color/pattern is great and the dress does give a slimming effect but that's where it ends for me. Fabric is very thin. Not the quality I was expecting." Boden isn't the only retailer helping shoppers look stylish this summer for less. Eco-conscious brand Nobody's Child has up to 30% off blouses, tops and more, but our top pick is the Black Floral Adrian Midi Dress - now £53 (was £65). The square neck on this summery frock is sure to keep the wearer cool, while its semi-fitted silhouette flatters any shape. Elsewhere, Roman also has a sale section with heaps of chic bargains, such as the Blue Floral Print Double Layer Shift Dress. It's reduced to £26 from £36, saving customers 27% off. One delighted shopper said: "Lovely summer dress, perfect fit, perfect length, very comfortable, very pretty." For those in need of new footwear, these Iris Snaffle Heeled Clogs are also in the Boden sale - now 65% off. Now £40.25 (was £115), these popular shoes are made from supple leather, with a wooden platform sole and a horse-bit snaffle on the front. One reviewer said: "I love them. So comfortable and stylish. Look great with summer maxi dresses and wide jeans." Someone else added: "I will be wearing these throughout summer and into autumn I am sure with maxi dresses and linen trousers - I wanted something a bit different to standout from the standard Birkenstock clogs." However, a third shopper said the Boden clogs weren't what they hoped for. Their three-star review reads: "I had to return these as they were far too big. A disappointment as they could have been really comfortable." But they still added: "A lovely colour too which would go with many things." Another dress we love from the Boden sale is this Sofia Trim Jersey Midi, which has been reduced to £68.60, down from £98. The dress comes in regular or petite sizes from four to 22, but it's already selling out in some lengths. With a detachable fabric belt at the waist, the fit of the dress can be easily adjusted by the wearer. In a glowing review, one person wrote: "Did I just find the perfect Boden dress? I think I did. Flattering, great length (I am 6 feet tall), Pockets! I'll be ordering more colours for sure." A second added: "The fabric is lovely - cotton rich so comfortable to wear and has a decent weight to it. It is a flattering shape and I also like the trim detailing." But it's not all positive in reviews for the Sofia dress, with one shopper saying: "The material was not what I was expecting. It didn't look nearly as expensive as it does online." T-shirts are essential for any wardrobe as the weather heats up, and we've spotted the perfect option for savvy shoppers. Boden's Short Sleeve Smocked Cuff Top has been reduced to £22.40 (was £32) in the 'Tickled Pink' colourway. Made from 100% cotton, it's a great piece for pairing with jeans and trainers, promising to skim over the body's natural curves. One delighted fan said of the item: "Great fit and love the sleeves. Perfect for all occasions," but a less pleased customer added: "Poor quality fabric." Shoppers can browse more deals in Boden's up to 60% off sale here.
