    I think the sizing is generous but the trousers are too long for me :o( at 5 foot 3 - The regular inside leg is 31" !!!!!

    My other moan is that a lot of the clothes are dry clean only - mayhem for a busy working mum like me...

    Sizes are below:

    8 10 12 14 16 18 20
    To fit chest 32" 33" 35" 37" 39" 41" 43"
    To fit waist 24" 25" 27" 29" 31" 33" 35"
    To fit hips 35" 36" 38" 40" 42" 44" 46"

    But the clothes are such great quality that I always succumb in the end and jump at the sales to stock up...

    I've only ever bought kiddies stuff before from them, and they always seem to be a bit on the big side. My youngest, who is 3 soon, is still wearing 12-24 months stuff with the sleeves rolled up!! (but then, he could have just inherited my short arms!!) ;)

    Come on folks I thought someone would have had a laugh with me about these Boden pages! Apologies if I'm forcing my warped sense of humour on people but I thought it was funny.

    How about this one then?

    I would say with regards to sizes - I get a size 14 trousers and they fit ok, but go for 12 tops as the 14s come up a bit big. Kids stuff is always much bigger than its size - my 13 yr old daughter wears size 11-12 age stuff. I love Boden clothes, but only ever buy them in the sale! By the way Boden stuff, I have realised, sells very well on Ebay (even 2nd hand stuff). So when you've had enough of an item try and get some money back.

    Ultra3wl - Sorry I only just realised what you trying to show us - very funny! Definitely appeals to my sense of humour! Wonder if anyone else has spotted them. Well at least the people at Boden have a sense of humour!

    Excellent, thanks for giving me something to laugh about on a Gloomy Monday morning. I have just emailed it to my hubby at work who will definately have a good chuckle.
    Thanks

    The joke is actually done within the link itself, not by Boden. Follow one of the !!!!!! links to one of the funny pages, then look at the real link shown in the address bar in your browser. You can put in whatever words you like!

    No idea what happens if you then actually try to buy one of these weird items!

    No, no - I did laugh - but being used to Boden's unusual descriptions, I actually wasn't sure whether they were real or not! LOL!
