wore this dress to a wedding dinner reception, it was a bit less formal than the dress worn for the reception, but easily can up-level with some accessories. 
even being a 34G this dress successfully zipped closed and didn’t smoosh the girls. was super comfortable yet the extra lace detail at the bottom made it feel a bit more fancy. 

Wish I could have the option to buy this dress. It was comfortable and so cute ! 

Such a simple but beautiful dress. I should have gotten a size 6 as the 4 was a bit snug, especially in the chest, but it worked. Wish I could keep it!

Recently wore this to a church function and got a lot of compliments! My favorite rent to date - fits perfectly and it’s comfortable. Good for work or formal events. It’s well-made, I really liked the quality. I was afraid the design would age me up but it looked classy and I felt great in it. I’m usually a 4 but size up when it comes to more fitted dresses, the 6 was roomy and just right. The dress is petite friendly which is a must for me. I def recommend it and think it’s a closet staple. 

I ordered a 4 and a 2, wound up wearing the 2 and it fit perfectly. Loved the fit and elegant classic look of this dress for a summer wedding. I’m 5’2” and 116lbs and it fit great & was comfortable for dancing. Highly recommend. 

I wore the size 4 and it fit just right. I chose this for a semi formal wedding. Everyone complimented the dress and my husband even thought I should buy it! 

Wore this to an engagement party at a country club and had tons of compliments! A super easy dress to dress up or down and very comfortable. I did end up having to size up as I'm an hourglass figure and it was snug in the waist. Worse spanx with us and it was perfect. Would definitely rent again!

Wore this to Officiate my BFs wedding. As i was walking down the aisle I overheard "her dress is AMAZING." No kidding! Felt like an absolute smoke show. Great fit. I'm 5'4 36DDD sitting between 10-12. Wore a 12. Loved it. 

Nice black dress. Comfortable. Pretty modest and not super exciting. Lace at the bottom is a nice touch. The zipper was difficult but I got it to work. Overall, the dress was comfortable and worked well for a dinner date.  

I felt super confident and got many compliments. 

I wasn't sure of my exact size so I ordered a 12 and 14. The 12 was too small but the 14 was comfortable. The material did not have any give. 

Dress was a little tighter in the hips and looser in the shoulders but overall great dress. I loved the length! 

The neckline is just right and the lace stops it being frumpy as it is quite long. 

Very pretty dress with great detailing. Perfect for a wedding.  I did initially have trouble with the zipper and so did my husband. I would rent this dress again though. 

I'm usually between a 4 and a 6, so the 4 was a little tight around my backside. I have an hourglass figure, but thanks to Spanx the dress worked out. If you're between sizes and bigger on the bottom like me, I'd recommend going with the larger size. The fabric has a little stretch and is thin which helps in a form fitting dress like that. I really loved the lace detail and the scalloping on the neckline. 

Ran small so wore a size larger, was tight in the ribs.  Felt great even at a hot wedding! 

Enjoyed wearing this dress to my friend's bridal shower! I got several compliments and loved the lace at the bottom & neckline detail! This dress was very form-fitting. I'm currently around 150lb, 5' 4", 34B. I felt like I should have worn shapewear to keep my midsection in check since it hugged all the curves. There was also some strange gapping in the upper back area, as if there was too much fabric there. So overall it might work better for a different body type, but I still had a great time wearing it!

I rented this dress for a work awards event. It was the perfect little black dress. The cut and length was very flattering, and the lace detail added a fun element. My dress arrived a little wrinkly through the mid section from shipping, but the lighting at the event was dark, so you couldn't really see it. I'm sure a light steam would easily have fixed it. What I loved most about this dress is the length - it elongated my body and hit just below the knee (I'm 5'5). I wore a 6 and found the fit true to size. My backup was a size smaller, and while it was more fitted in the waist, it was a little tight around the hips.

This is the first time I rented a Draper James dress and I was really pleased with the quality and the style. The bottom skirt design really makes this dress unique
