Over at Boden, the Holly Knitted Jacket has garnered an impressive 4.4 out of five stars from up to 340 honest customer reviews. A thrilled shopper shared: "Love, love, love this jacket! Ordered a size 16 after reading reviews as I wanted to wear it as a top with the buttons fastened as well as a jacket.

"I'm sure I'll have lots of wear from it as the navy and white is a staple in my wardrobe and it suits me very well. Think I'll buy another while they're on sale to nab a bargain, and being cotton, is just perfect."

Another satisfied customer wrote: "This was a good fit for me as I'm a petite size so perfect length. Thick material so holds its shape well."

Yet, there was a less content customer, who shared: "The style didn't suit me, too boxy/wide and the gap at the back was too much as it flopped about." Meanwhile, another happy buyer praised: "Fits perfectly, lovely quality."
