I bought xs size. It's
"I bought xs size. It's still quite roomy for me. I like the thick linen fabric. I love it. Thank you."
Inspired by a vintage silhouette and ethically crafted from 100% linen, the Dahlia mini is the essential luxury dress we’ve been dreaming of. Worn with a matching tie around the waist or without for a more relaxed look, her flowing silhouette and billowy sleeves make the Dahlia dress our new go-to for effortless, elevated style. Featuring convenient side pockets, this dress is designed to be worn on or off the shoulders, with the length adjusting slightly depending on your styling choice.
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.

"I bought xs size. It's still quite roomy for me. I like the thick linen fabric. I love it. Thank you."
"Absolutely luv this dress, can't fault it!"
"I love it! Quality is superb! Fit is accurate. Would definitely purchase again from this company!!! Oh… and shipping was excellent…. Quick and very informative."
"I don’t like the fabric as much as the lightweight cotton. But, I like the dress!"
"Absolutely love this - a little short for my 64 years but I just wear a pair of bike shorts to feel comfortable. The linen material is a beautiful quality and I was worried it would be hot as it's quite thick but it's perfect. Would love to buy the long one in the other pattern when back in stock. As always customer service was very good"
"Got it oversized so it would be long enough. Love it."
"Beautiful dress. Fabric is lovely."
"My dress arrived today and it is absolutely stunning. Attention to detail is second to none. May I also add that the customer service is first class, I live in the UK and it has taken just over a week between placing my order and receiving my beautiful dress. Thank you so much to everyone involved with the perfect transaction."
"1st class experience all round. Great communication and very speedy delivery livery to UK. The dress itself is stunning, so well made and the linen is devine. Can't wait to wear it on a catamaran party."
"The fabric is lovely and I like the neckline. Looking at the photos and comparing models’ heights with mine Inexpected this to touch the top of my knee but it’s way too short for me to wear as a dress! I’ll be shortening it significantly and wearing it as a tunic top."
