Draper James

Wore this dress to an all-day event and it was super low maintenance. I'm usually a 6 in most dresses, but often an 8 if fitted-waist, so I sized up one and it was perfect. But I would say this dress is true to size. Colors are dark blue/white, with dark pink accent. Pockets:)

Perfect for summer

So this is what makes life divine... I love this dress so much. It fits like it was tailored. After 2 years of renting, this is top 5. If I was postpartum, it would be #1 just for fit and convenience. My waist is 30" and bust is 35" and I had no room to spare, so if you're bordering on a 10, size up. I don't think there's anything to lose in sizing up.

Precious dress! So many compliments.... and Pockets!

This is super comfortable. I wore on a warm day to work and even with the sleeves, it was comfortable despite the heat outside. I ate outside in the park comfortably wearing this - and received so many compliments!

I got this dress for summer work meetings. Great ft and lots of compliments! Love love love!

Super comfortable and great for a hot day when you need to look pulled together.

This dress is well made and has a very flattering cut. I rented this to wear to a rodeo and fair in hot conditions and it was a good pick. I also ended up wearing it to work and to church and brunch and it worked in all places. The picture was taken after all these wearings so it holds up well. At times it felt costume-y, but it also recieved several compliments from complete strangers.

I got this dress in my first group of items for RTR unlimited! I wore it to work and received SO many compliments. It's comfortable and seems super high quality in person. The details make it really special! You can definitely dress it up or down.

Tailored look, fun and compliment worthy. It fit perfectly and red and white accessories brought it to life. Wedges by Steve Madden.

Ran true to size for me in that everything fit well but I couldn't really move my arms up and down because there is no stretch whatsoever in the fabric and so it can be slightly constricting up top. Not a problem for me because I wore it to brunch and didn't need to move too much. But could be an issue for ladies more well endowed than me.

This dress was strangely small in the rib cage. Could not wear.

I have found that Draper James sleeves are too snug for me. The rest of the dress fit like a dream and was very flattering. Good quality fabric and an extra hook at the waist to prevent gaping.

Got lots of compliments and was fun and girly to wear. I recommend

Good fit, flattering, just felt a little too Little House on the Prairie with the length, sleeves, and the gingham. Loved for a rental, but wouldn't have purchased it.

Wanted to keep it but the fabric is summery and I may not get to wear it again for a while.

Super cute a-line that acentuares the waist and hits just below the knee. Perfect for work!

A great dress, with pockets, flattering, comfortable, but gives you sleek lines. I usually prefer a modern and sleek look, and this is a very modern take on gingham.

I wore this on a super busy day of meetings and every single person complimented me on this dress. It's incredibly comfortable, room in the arms (sometimes this style of sleeve is tight on me), and thicker fabric so it's got a more structured look. I wore it with nude sandals and no jewelry - this dress was enough to be striking all on its own

I am busty (34DD) and the buttons almost started gaping. Otherwise this dress was perfect

I didn't end up wearing this- it wasn't my style. A little childish for my liking Runs true to size maybe even a tad large comfortable but a lot of fabric Very modest- preppy collared look Pink navy blue in color Good for spring summer days

I rented this for a couple of family-friendly outdoor parties and also wore it to work. The red eyelet detail really makes it unique from other button-down gingham dresses. Fit was a little tight on top, and I have a relatively small bust; might not work for someone with a larger chest.

Being a busty girl, I'm usually very wary of anything that's a button up. This fit really well though. No troubles in the bust at all and the fit was very flattering. Super cute!

Long, nice material, I liked that it had pockets.

Good fit.

Very 50s retro vibe, darling print w red embroidery on sleeve and hem. I'd give it perfect marks except that the waist elastic is in an odd place, not on natural waist but a bit higher on ribs which makes it look slightly odd, but so darling I wore it two times despite that.

I'm a 36D and this middle button was MAXXED out. I could have left the bust buttons open and worn a bralette and had a fine time at a cocktail party but I wanted to wear it to work.... would have had a "fat guy in a little coat" situation where I could not hug or lift arms very far. It's going back without a wear but hot damn this was a cute dress. Last Draper James in a 14 Fit very different than this

Runs tight didn't use looked frumpy

Really really was tempted to buy this dress. It's comfortable and can be dressed up or down so easily. I wore it with a belt and thought it worked better than without. The pockets are great and the pink stitching really pops. One of my favorite rentals.

This dress is adorable! It fits true to size but the buttons were a little stretched across my chest (34D). No biggie, I just could push my shoulders back to the extreme. Other notes: the last button on the dress is oddly high up- see where I'm pointing in the photo. I'm 5'9" and if it was any higher, I would have needed to pin it for decency. Also, the embroidery is a bright pink (thought it was red), which is nice too. Will probably rent again, but may size up for a little extra chest room.

Fitted in the waist, full button up. Love the pink detailing.

Perfect fit. Lots of complements. Keeping!

I liked the style of this dress. It moved easily and was comfortable. Pulled slightly at the bust so I wore a bra without padding and it was fine.

Great fit. Got lots of compliments!

O-M-G! Did not think I'd love this dress as much as I did. The top fits very small so glad I ordered the size up. The bust and waist and sleeves all run small so please size up! I usually am a 4 or 6 and the 6 was just right. This dress was amazing - I wore it with flats to work and white sandals to a barbecue. LOVED how wide the skirt was because it made the dress super flattering and also kept me cool in hot summer weather. Would definitely rent again!

Perfect summer dress. There's still a little extra room in the waist for movement/eating/boobs. I'm a 34ddd and didn't have the awkward boob pucker tooo much with the buttons. I wore more of a bralette and that helped the situation but can also be safety pinned. Highly recommended for any summer occasion.

Fit perfectly. It could be tight in the shoulders if you have wide shoulders. Got so many compliments on this dress.

Loved this dress! Normally wear a size 8 but sometimes these style dresses run large (didn't see a zipper on the model). 6 fit perfectly! Wore this to work and wore silver flats. Didn't realize that the gingham pattern was a dark navy blue (maybe I didn't read the description very well) but still very pretty overall. Loved the detailing in the arms and hemline and received a lot of compliments. Very feminine/1920s.

I love this feminine button down dress by Draper James. Running small with no stretch, I recommend wearing a size up for your primary size. This style is fitted at the natural waist and loose at the hips. It works best for A-C cup sizes. You are able to wear a standard bra with this dress. At 5’9”, the length hit below the knee on me. This dress is a very easy wear to a daytime event. The pink eyelet detail adds a special touch. Pair with a sandal and a pink pair of earrings to complete your outfit!

not for women with a big bust, style is adorable though
