Size Up - Don’t Be Afraid
I normally wear a 4 in dresses and initially wanted to size up to a 6 after reading reviews. The only size available was an 8 and I was a bit hesitant about it being too large. I’m happy I went with the 8, it fit comfortably with enough breathing room to eat and drink. I tried to wear a proper bra with this dress (34C) and there was just too much of a gap, wore with a commando bralette to fix the issue.

Beautiful dress!
This dress is small in the bust (I'm 32DDD) but it was an easy fix with a small amount of fashion tape. Super flattering and a beautiful color. Perfect for a typical 93°/200% humidity August day in Georgia!

Absolutely love!!
So so flattering on. I am a 34b but couldn’t wear a bra since it was tight in the bust. So size up if you have a larger chest!

Very flattering!
I thought this dress was great! Super flattering cut that gives you a waist. The color was also beautiful. Got a lot of compliments! Could be cute on the beach or running around town. The only thing that could make it better would be pockets!

Well made, nice details
Fit was true to size, no gaping between buttons at the bust, nice extra hook-eye clasp at the waist. This was a very flattering and comfortable dress

Lots of compliments!
This dress is much cuter on and in person! I wore it to a horse race and it was perfect! I went up 2 sizes after reading other reviews and I'm glad I did. The top is snug, so I never would've been able to wear in my usual size 2 or even 4. I'm 115 lbs and 5'4. Overall loved this dress and would rent again!

Runs small
I'm squally a 4/6 and based on the reviews of it running small I ordered an 8. The 8 fit great and it was a perfect summer work dress.

Great dress, runs small
Loved this for hot summer day outside. Runs small. I sized up and dress was still a bit tight in the chest, but overall very cute and fun to wear.

Dorothy dress of my dreams
The only con of this dress is that it was too small in the chest! The waist and length were perfection. I wanted to wear it to work but it was too gappy for that. I used fashion tape and wore it to dinner. I got so many compliments! I'm a 32DD, so be wary if you have a chest.

Loved this dress- It was a little tight across my bust and ribs. Bustier girls or those with larger ribcages may want to size up.

Small bust
I cannot figure out sizing with this designer. I ordered larger because the last Draper James dress I ordered in a 12 was just slightly light in the waist. This one was a 14 and even smaller though and I couldn't close the busy, had to wear a cami with it. Dress is lightweight and nice though

The bust was too small leaving big gaps. The slip showed from underneath the dress. Didn't wear and do not recommend. Material was nice though!

Size up!
Definitely better for someone with a smaller chest. Sized up 2 sizes and I'm so glad I did! Even with the roomier size, it gaped a bit at the chest and I had to use fashion tape to keep it down. But great fabric and very cute on.

Great dress and color - lots of compliments
I sized up based on other reviews noting the bust is a bit small. I'm normally a 2 or 4 but opted for the 6 and it was perfect. Works with a small bump too.

Super cute dress. The quality of the fabric was great and did not wrinkle. The bust was a bit tight on me when wearing a push up bra, so all reviews are definitely spot on regarding the chest not having LOTS of free room. I would definitely rent again.

Tons of compliments. On hanger I thought "Dorothy" but once on it takes new shape and us perfect dress for summer. It would work well for variety of events. Quality you would expect from designer. Front needed a pin, though.
