It did not fit well.
"It did not fit well. The fabric was not cotton. It felt very polyester and stiff."
The Daughters of India signature Kyra design in a gorgeous deep indigo tone. The everyday Kyra dress features romantic billowing sleeves and optional front tie detailing while the full bodied skirt is free of underlining, making it one of our most comfortable styles due to the magical lightness of the material. Our signature floral pattern feels uplifting and vibrant on this maternity and breast feeding friendly design.
A classic midi dress you will want in every colour!
100% Cotton. Depending on each individual, some find the material sheer. A slip may be worn underneath if desired.
We recommend a gentle, cold water hand wash using natural detergents, and hang drying in the shade. Handcrafted garments are delicate, however, designed to last when treated mindfully with love and care.
Lovingly handmade in India, each piece may vary slightly in colour — a natural part of its unique beauty.
At the heart of Daughters of India, we believe supporting women to feel empowered is a key component of a positive future.
We have pledged an ongoing monthly donation of $10,000 to support our charity partnerships Sewing the Seeds and Saheli Women.

"It did not fit well. The fabric was not cotton. It felt very polyester and stiff."
"Positives: Beautiful fabric and lots of it, well made Negatives: The seam on the bust falls right across the bust which makes the fabric below that area balloon out. I plan to take it to a seamstress and redesign that area so it falls below the bust for a m ore streamlined look. It might work better on a taller person but I’m only 5’3” and I look a bit squatty and chubby."
"I liked the dress but it did not suit my body shape. I have a low bust line and the gathering caught me in the wrong place, so that the dress-stuck out. Not attractive and I returned it. Disappointing to find that there were no refunds,and only credits. I had seen the dress on someone locally and thought it was lovely,but obviously not on me."
"I love the Kyra Midi Dress - Blue Iris. Fabric is lovely and light weight and the colour is fab probably a little lighter than photos but very nice. A very wearable dress can dress up or down. Funnily enough I am taking it on a trip to India so its going back to where it was made perhaps. I am only 5 ft 1 tall so the midi is perfect length on me above ankle ballerina length. I will get a lot of wear out of this dress. Will also style with a belt to bring in @ waist. Could definitely wear summer or winter. Wear a wee vest underneath and jacket and boots for colder weather. Can highly recommend."
"I love this dress!!"
"This dress is just a dream. The material is so floaty, the pattern is fun, and the colour is to die for! I had this in an XL and at first kept it for special occasions, then realised- what am I waiting for?? I lost a fair bit of weight and then bought a smaller size because I love it. Really worth the money! The length is great too! So easy to dress up, or leave as is. Gah, I could gush over this for paragraphs!! The only downside is how delicate the fabric and seems can be, but it’s a pretty easy fix. Would recommend to anyone!"
"It is more than I expected! The fabric is so soft, colors and pattern is very elegant! But! I didn’t check the sizing. . I wear 12 US size and I ordered L. When 2 dresses I ordered came both are too tight. . it turned L is more like size 8… Waiting for response how I can get the dresses exchange. ."
"I love it. I wish I had bought this before I went to Thailand it would have been fabulous. I will need to book another holiday somewhere warm"
"Love everything about this dress. How it feels on. How it looks. 😊"
"A lovely dress, though the color was not as depicted. I didn’t care for the blue iris color, so exchanged it with no hassle. The new dress, in ocean blue, arrived quickly and I’m very happy with it. Light and airy. I purchased a white cotton slip to wear underneath, which should keep me decent but still cool. :)"
