She started at Boden in 1999 as merchandising director and is understood to have contributed heavily to the success of the catalogue and online retailer.
The most recently available figures show the retailer's sales increased 6 per cent to £246 million. However, profit plunged 45 per cent to £18 million. Chief executive Julian Granville blamed the slump on rising cotton prices and insisted the retailer would not compromise on quality for short-term profit gain.
