These dresses imitate Boden baby clothes with charming and colorful appliques. The overall fabric of the dress is much thinner than Boden and has a higher poly content. This is a thinner and more elastic material. Depending on your climate, this may be preferable. The color is exactly like the picture - bright and vibrant. The application was very thin and glued with felt, with additional stitching for reinforcement. I'm sure my niece will outgrow it before the material wears out. So the price suits me. She likes the unicorn and the colors so she gives two thumbs up.
