I love how breezy and
"I love how breezy and flowy I feel in this dress! So thin but not see through at all!"
Our signature Kyra Dress in a maxi length, delicately adorned with traditional hand-block printed blooms in peach hues, each petal and pattern tell a story of elegance.
Featuring pockets, romantic billowing sleeves and an optional front-tie at the neckline. This block print was inspired by the Jasmine flower that grows around Jaipur in India, a pattern designed exclusively for Daughters of India and finished with a vibrant hemline.
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.



Sewing the Seeds is a women’s empowerment initiative that uses education and creativity in slow fashion to help break the cycle of poverty for Indian women. Their centre offers training in business, finance, and women’s health, fostering self-confidence in a supportive environment.
We have committed to a monthly donation of $5,000 to support their impactful work.
We’re working with Saheli women to launch Saheli Kapas, a Cotton Project, to support and empower female farmers at the root of the supply chain. Saheli Women believe true fashion starts with the Earth and the women who nurture and farm it.

The pilot begins with five women and their farms, providing them with training, direct income, and ongoing support. By offering access to quality seeds and low-water sustainable practices, we aim to uplift communities while honouring Mother Earth.
We have committed to a monthly donation of $5,000 to support their impactful work.
Our slow fashion garments are handcrafted in India and shipped to you from our warehouse in Tweed Heads, NSW.
We endeavour to process your order within 1–3 business days. Orders are shipped via Australia Post. You’ll receive a tracking number by email once your order ships.

The Kyra Maxi Dress by Daughters of India is praised for its beautiful hand-block printed blooms, soft fabric, and perfect fit. However, some customers found the sizing to be smaller than expected. The dress is made from 100% cotton and requires gentle care.

"I love how breezy and flowy I feel in this dress! So thin but not see through at all!"
"I have had my eye on this stunningly beautiful dress for sometime and finally decided to treat myself in the Mother’s Day sale. It arrived very quickly in the UK and I wore it the same night!! It is true to size and the fabric is luxurious, light and stunning. I feel lovely and cool in it. It’s perfect - you equally wear it with flipflops in the daytime or you can dress it up with gold jewellery for dinner. I adore mine!!! Thank you Daughters of India. Very special dress - I have a feeling I may need more! 🥰"
"Putting this dress on feels like a dream. So gorgeous and airy. Will be ordering another one as soon as I can. Thank you!"

"Its so beautiful dress and well made. I feel like a princess in every DOI dresses. I love thath dresses are ethically made. Even when its could in vinter here in Finland, I can wear this dress with leggings. Im 161 cm and it dosent touch the ground. Wearing Size S and it fits nice."
"This is my 5th dress from Daughters of India and, again, it’s absolutely divine. The fabric is light and crisp and moves beautifully. The fit, tho loose, still provides a bit of shape and colours are soft and pretty."
"I have wanted this dress for a very long time but was hesitant because of delivery to the UK. I had absolutely nothing to worry about as I ordered it on Monday and it arrived on the Friday, amazing! As for the dress it's a dream, and watching the process of making these beautiful garments on your website was really quite emotional. What a wonderful thing you are doing for these talented artisans who make these heavenly dresses. This is my first dress but most definitely not the last. Simply beautiful."
