Comfortable and versatile
Overall I like the dress. Free flowing like my other DOI dresses, comfortable and versatile. Unfortunately this time there was an error in the manufacturing as the left pocket has been sewed in backwards. I will need to find a seamstres to fix It.

See-through and not made for small, curvy woman
The fabric feels amazing and I cannot wait to wear it on warm days, unfortunately the fit is not made for small and a bit curvy woman at all. I have a pretty normal build, but unfortunately I look very bulky in this dress, and unfortunately the pockets are too high to be practical. About 10cm deeper and it would look better & be easier to handle them. I also was a bit disappointed how thin the fabric is, I fear that I might tear it pretty easily. Hope it's stronger than it looks and feels.

Another perfect experience w Daughters of India. The dress arrived before expected-fabric, color, design, sewing and fit all beautiful and just as I wanted. Length is to my ankle bone on my 5ft 4 inch self in size xs. Wonderful fall dress , I am totally enjoying! Thank you !
Katrina C. · Verified buyer · 20 November 2024
Beautiful flow and colour
Beautiful flow and loved the earthy colour tone, but was disappointed when the dress just did not fit more loosely around bust and waist, all so the dress came with a major fault the pockets were twisted and sewn in with other seams. Customer service is the best there is and promptly gave me a credit and a 20% voucher to use for the inconvenience. Did I mention this is my 10th Daughters of India dress, think this says it all👍

Not true to size and very tight fit
I am a true Medium, sometimes on the smaller size and this M size was such a tight fit around the neck and under the arms because of where the seams are. It doesn’t seem like this dress is designed or tailored to be inclusive since it is not true too size and runs too small.

My daily Dress
This dress has become my favorite daily outfit. Since I live in Florida, I can still wear summer dresses, and this one is perfect-the fabric is great, and the fit is flattering, especially around the tummy. I feel confident wearing it, and everyone keeps asking where it's from!

A lovely dress, BUT
It’s tight under the arm pit despite being generous everywhere else … I would say I need a larger size but I think that’s would be too long as this size is already at my ankles and I’m 167cm ( size medium)

Stunning, but see-through. . .
This piece is as beautiful as you hope it will be, and it falls and flows so nicely. However, I was a little disappointed that it isn't lined, given the price point. You can definately see through it without a slip underneath.

Not as expected
The dress is fine but the material gets very wrinkled very easily and very fast and it doesn’t look good when you wear it like that. The material It’s too thin. I bought it in sales and the relationship price quality is alright although not great but I would not have bought such a dress at its standard price. Quite dissatisfied with the brand because what you see in the pictures gets you a wrong impression of what you get.

Love this dress!
I was hesitant having had bad experiences of online/overseas purchases - this was delivered a week later and perfect! Love the colour and the fit and the fabric! It’s so flowy but well fitted and thin enough fabric for hot days but not at all see through. I will be buying more from them!

Restrictive Neck
This is my first DOI purchase. I have seen all of the advertisements and have been trying to support slow fashion brands. The flow of the dress and pretty fabric patterns seemed lovely. As I am mindful of my budget, I choose a dress in the Last Chance section. (maybe there are reasons it is in the Last Chance section) I checked the sizing and the size small seemed to be the best fit. The total cost of my dress including tax and shipping was about $70 USD. This dress is not returnable. The dress came in a lovely small tote that can be used for carrying small items or a quick pick up at the store. The dress itself is okay. The 100% cotton seems cheap to touch, not soft on the skin. My biggest complaint is the round neckline of this dress. They have used a seam binding around the neckline that does not stretch or give thus, I am being restricted with my movements. Due to the fact that is not returnable, it might end up collecting dust in my closet or I will try and sell it on a 2nd hand used online store.
