Consumers frequently mention that the clothing items suffer from poor quality, weak stitching, and fragile fabric that tears easily after only a few gentle uses.

A few other customers mentioned that despite subsequent durability concerns, the dresses can initially feel wonderful and remain a favorite choice for seasonal wear.

This ensures the artisans are free to manage their own hours without production deadlines, providing flexibility to enjoy life at a slower pace. We support the art of hand block printing and sustainably handmade garments that utilise tradition and ritual through ancient practice. Our aim is to bridge the gap between artisan and consumer, our connection with one another, and the Earth.

Love This Brand ♥️ 👗

Love, love, love this brand! Women have literally stopped me on the street to tell me I’m wearing the most beautiful unique dress they’ve ever seen — more than once, more than one of my DOI dresses. GTK: the fabric is super lightweight cotton. The dresses are voluminous, so no, I don’t wear a slip with them — the glimpses of your shape are part of the look! Of course you could wear a slip for some occasions. The fabric holds up very well with hand wash + hang dry. I also like the fact that buying these is supporting women who make a fair wage in India. I’d never buy a knock off from a fast fashion brand — support the women of India instead!

I think I own about 12 midi or maxi dresses now. I love the soft floaty and comfortable fabric. It is important to me that the textile brand is sustainable and looks after the print artists/makers and production team. Easy, versatile and able to work to work as well as other casual and semi formal occasions.

Warning - Do not make a purchase

I cannot emphasise how much I do not recommend this company to anyone. I bought what looked like a beautiful dress online, only for it to arrive and be made of the cheapest, paper thin material and awful 'sack-like' shape. It is perhaps the most overpriced item of clothing I have ever bought. I immediately returned the item to then be told that I could only have a gift card and not a refund. Given the awful quality of the dresses, I have no interest in purchasing another item. I have now wasted £45 on delivery and return postage fees alone. A cost that far outweighs the quality and value of the dress itself. I am shocked to have been denied a refund given the absolute joke of quality that was sent to me. Please, please do not purchase anything from this company.

Truly one of my favorite dresses

Truly one of my favorite dresses. I have the Kyra Midi dress. The fabric is soft, the color and print is beautiful. The dress is flowy and comfortable. I get compliments every time I wear it.

Absolutely love these dresses

Absolutely love these dresses. I’ve bought the Kyra midi in several colors and they are pretty much all I’ve worn all summer. The prints are beautiful and the fabric is so light and comfortable. Follow DOI advice and check the sizing charts every time you order, because there is some variation.

The perfect dress!

I have lived in my mini kyra for the last three years. It's light weight, breathable, comfortable, and easy to dress up or down. Such a staple!! Finally time to invest in more, but impossible to choose what to get 😍

I love that it has sleeves so I don't need to worry about sunburn, but doesn't leave me feeling hot or sweaty. The perfect dress!
