Too formal for the event but cute!
The venue for my holiday party changed and this was way too formal. The drape was also a bit weird. I tried ironing it to see if it would lay better but it just drops very far on one side. Size up if between sizes, it was tight through the hips for me.

Loved them!
These were replacement earrings after my primary pair was not available. They were larger than I normally wear but looked great with an updo. Not too heavy at all!

Lovely color and very flattering!
I rented this for a fundraiser and loved it! It covered my belly and the fluttering fabric on top laid lightly compared to the heavier drape of the dress.

Perfect for summer and very cute
I adore this skirt! I wore it to work with a blazer, out to brunch with a tube top, running errands with a t-shirt. If this skirt was any more perfect, it would do my taxes for me. It's a bit specific to buy, as I'm not sure how often I can pull off a citrus-themed skirt off season, but for a summer day or night, it was fun and flowy and I got tons of compliments! Two enthusiastic thumbs up!

Really tight in the belly
As others have said, if you have no hips and no belly fat and a relatively small chest, this dress is perfect for you! As someone who has a bit of a tummy, this just made me look 3 months pregnant and I really don't enjoy being asked how far along I am when I am, in fact, not with child. The fabric is really thin and the dress that I got looked a bit tired by the end of a long, midsection weary summer. Ended up not wearing this at all. Very unforgiving.

Perfect for Superheroes - big boobs, no belly
I am not entirely sure how accessible this piece is for the general population. As a 5'9" woman who has given birth to humans, it's decidedly not me. You have to have a large chest, be shorter than 5'7" (or really ok with a camel toe), have decidedly no belly fat and a relatively small rear. And be able to pull off a bold yellow color. It's REALLY niche. Even pinned, it was enormous in the chest. Even in Spanx, it was difficult to sit AND breath at the same time. You get to do one or the other. Not both simultaneously.

Unique pattern, classic style
I wore this to high tea with my mom and loved the unique pattern coupled with a classic wrap dress. The fabric is very forgiving with a bit of a sheen to it. Felt lovely and confident!

Perfection!!
I adored this dress and received a ton of compliments at an outdoor summer wedding. It was long and comfortable, had pockets and was a bold color.

Great for summer, very slimming
I love this dress! It made me feel really slim and confident. The material is rather thick cotton, so it holds its form and doesn't stretch that much. It fit snuggly across the bust, so I didn't need to wear a bra. No gaps or button splits. This is great for the office or casual summer event. I am really pleased with it!

Amazing! The perfect dress!
I adore this dress! It is summer perfection! Rented for work and because I've been curious about the Draper James line and it did not disappoint. The fabric is light, somewhat silky and very flowy. I have a relatively small chest, so this would not be recommended for ladies with a larger bust. I'm an A Cup and there was some minor gapping at the buttons in the chest. But overall, it's darling and looks adorable on!

Runs small, very seethrough!
The style and color of this skirt is fun and true to the pictures online. The colors are bright and bold and the fabric is light and flowing. But it hugs very tight on the belly and is unforgiving if you have a pooch. Also, it's very sheer material and everything can be seen through, even the plain white tee that I had underneath. Fun for a trial, but I wouldn't rent this again.

Loved it when standing, gapped a bit when sitting
I loved this dress! It was form fitting and flattering! Had pockets and fit me like a glove! That said, I do not recommend for women with larger chests. And when sitting, it did gap a bit at the chest.

Unforgiving
The top of this fit brilliantly but it showed every lump and bump on the lower half, even with shapewear and the thick fabric, it was very unforgiving. Went up a size and still felt self conscious. Did not wear.

Made for people with no rib cage or chest
This dress was TINY in the chest and rib cage. Even 2 sizes up, I could barely zip it and then had to decide between standing all night or breathing. Braless, as an A cup, it was too tight. Thank you to RTR for overnighting an alternate look. This was just not made for me. If you have a larger lower half and a tiny upper half, this would work and be flattering.

Even belted this made me feel like I was wearing a bag. VERY short on the side with the slit.
