We like to have fun at Boden but when it comes to fit, we take things very seriously. To help you find clothes that don’t just fit but also flatter, we’ve put together an easy-to-use size guide below.
If you have any other questions about the sizes of our clothes, feel free to drop our Customer Service Department a line on 1-866-206-9508. We’re always here to help you.
How to measure
-
BUST: Measure under your arms, across the fullest part of your bust. It's not as tricky as it sounds, honest.
-
WAIST: Measure your natural waistline (find it by tipping to the side like a teapot). We promise we’re not just telling you to do this so you look silly.
-
HIP: Measure around the fullest part of your bottom at the top of your leg. We know it’s a bum job.
-
FRONT LENGTH: Measure from your shoulder point to the hem. Pretty self-explanatory.
-
INSIDE LEG: Measure from the lowest part of the crotch to bottom of the hem.

The long and short of it
Unlike many brands, at Boden we know that ‘petite’ sizing (designed for customers 5ft 3in or under) isn’t just about trimming a bit off the hem. Instead, we’ve proportionally shortened the length
throughout on these garments – not just at the knee or ankle – so that they fit and flatter all over. You’ll notice the difference when you try them on.
In jumpsuits we also offer a ‘tall’ size for customers 5ft 10in or over. We’ve not just added extra fabric to the legs but increased the length proportionately
throughout the style to ensure a noticeably improved, flattering fit.
For our ‘long’ styles, we’ve added extra length at the bottom, so you can choose where you’d like the hemline to fall and whether you’d like to wear the garment with flats or (hooray) heels.
