Kyra Midi DressOcean Blue

Perfect Voluminous Dress

I purchased this dress for a trip to the Cayman Islands, and I can’t get enough of it! It is gorgeous and fits beautifully. I am 5,2” and 108 lbs. I purchased the size XS in Ocean Blue. It hits mid to lower calf and has a gentle rise in the front hem, which I love. The neck opening is slightly low for me, but on a taller person, it would be fine. This dress is light, flowy, and gorgeous. I have worn it to dinners, mostly, but would work as a beach cover up as well, as fabric is so light and thin. I have received so many compliments on it, and the colour is stunning!

Gorgeous color!

I purchased the ocean blue color and oh my goodness is it beautiful! I am typically an XL but felt comfortable ordering a medium based on the reviews and feel like it's perfect! I am also 5'1, so it is definitely goes to the ankle but I like that look so I don't mind much. I would love the opportunity to order in petites in the midi or maxi dresses, though!

Happy I finally tried these dresses

The fuchsia bloom Kyra midi is just beautiful! I always get compliments on the print, it's fresh and so pretty. These dresses could not be more comfy, I wash them on gentle in a garment bag and hang to dry. They travel well and the wrinkles fall out easily if you hang them up. They are a bit see through, but I wear nude biker shorts underneath and feel completely comfortable with the coverage. I am normally a small or medium and the small works perfectly.

Kyra Midi Ocean Blue

I’m so impressed with this dress. I’ve purchased a few other colours in this style in the past but I finally feel like I found the perfect colour for me in the ocean blue. It’s a poppy, bright colour on my fair skin and I feel like it brings out the blue in my eyes. I went in store to try on a couple of sizes and ended up feeling most comfortable in the medium which gave me a little extra room but didn’t feel like I was swimming in it. For reference I am a regular size 10. I’m happy that I went with the midi because I’m tall and I think the mini would have been a tad impractical for my lifestyle. This is such a special dress and makes me feel comfortable, relaxed and beautiful at the same time.

Kyra - Ocean Blue

I bought the Kyra in Ocean Blue. I had been admiring these dresses online for a while and took the plunge because of the black friday sales. The colour was amazing. I absolutely loved it. The material was excellent too - light and airy and felt great on. I however, looked terrible in it. I chose the size according to the size guidelines. Bust of 102cm and I ordered a L. The seam across the front cut straight across my breasts and the middle of my back and the skirt fell straight down from there. I looked like I was wearing a potato sack. I couldn't pull the sleeves up past my elbow as in some of the pictures, because the cuff was too small. As you can imagine I was so disappointed because these dresses look amazing online. I have read the return policy which says that I can only get a store credit or an exchange. I don't believe a different size in the same style will work for me. Not sure if any other styles would work, but I am hoping that someone can help as I couldn't find a phone number to ring to discuss. I am also concerned that I've already paid $12 to have it shipped to me, I'll have to pay $10 to ship it back and I could do the same all over again if I use a store credit to buy a different style and it doesn't work either.

Perfection

Purchased in Ocean Blue, as I loved it so much in the mini but wanted something with more wearability. The color is perfection. . . clear and bright! Purchased size medium, as usual. 5'9", 140lbs. , 34d and the medium is definitely the just-right size. Am still nursing my youngest, and love these Kyras for ease. . . just pop under all the drape.

Sophisticated and comfy

This dress is perfection. I can dress it up, down or just wear it to lay around. I love how breezy it is while still offering some shape. I am small chested and the XS fits me perfectly. It is tight enough in the chest to show shape and the arms and skirt are loose and lovely. Already made a second purchase and plan to make more in the future!

Kyra ocean blue midi dress

LOVE the dress. Usually I am a size 10 Australian. 5ft 7. Went for a medium size. pleased I did as there is no stretch in the material across the chest. I am a D cup but small upper body. The dress fits perfectly

Great summer dress

Very happy with my Ocean Blue midi dress that arrived safely in about 10 days. It’ll be a perfect hot weather dress and I’m looking forward to wearing it as soon as summer hits our shores. Fit is good - I’m 5’1” size 8 and the XS is perfect. Fabric is lightweight and due to pleating not as transparent as I thought it might be.

Beautiful adorable dress

This is such a glorious Kyra midi dress. I am normally a s12 (Med), 5'7", decided to purchase the L, mostly for a longer midi-maxi length. . . which I adore. Absolutely love the flow and movement of this dress. So romantic! The ocean blue colour is even more vibrant and stunning. Extremely happy with my 2nd lovingly made dress that I ordered 2 more!! Thank you DOI, you are amazing!

Wonderful

Absolutely beautiful! Very well made. I purchased an XL and it fits true to size. Color is just heavenly. Fabric is light and gauzy but not too delicate. I am 5'2" so the midi is ankle length on me - perfect. Purchased a second dress in Jade. Makes you feel beautiful! I will certainly be purchasing more.

Comfortable and Flattering

I am a size 6 and ordered a small. It fits perfectly. The truth is, I live in this dress. If a dress could be a friend, this would be it. The fabric is so soft and flowy. Be careful on gusty days, you may feel like a boho marilyn monroe when the breeze kicks up lol. I tend to wear sporty clothes so this dress is a totally new vibe for me and I absolutely love it. Perfect for lounging and you'll get compliments when you wear it out too.

Ocean Blue Perfection

This dress is absolutely as described: it is a quality garment that looks great on me and is beautifully crafted. I wish I had ordered a medium rather than my usual small - but that’s on me. The measurements are exactly as described, I just made the wrong assumption that it would be a little looser on top. It fits and looks great, but would be easier to takeoff and put on with another inch under the bust. Fabulous dress!

Beautiful dress - just what I needed, a beautiful floaty dress that can be dressed up or down. Amazing for summer but I'm hoping to wear in winter, styled with a cozy knit. I love that I've purchased a 100% cotton dress from a company with sustainable values. Sizing: I'm usually a 12-14, I have purchased the large and I'm very happy with the sizing. Love the calico DOI tote bag my dress came in, rather than plastic. This won't be my first and only purchase from DOI. Bonus is the beautiful journal I received by Dreamy Moons - I already have a couple of her journals and the gorgeous Aphrodite journal is just as exquisite, looking forward to my daily journaling 🩵✨

definition of comfort and style!

This was the first time I ordered a dress from DOI and I do not regret it! The dress is even more beautiful in person, light to wear, the color is gorgeous and rich and feels like butter on the skin. I ordered a small and was worried that maybe the bust area would be too big (because I have AA cup size) but it fit perfectly. I am wearing it with a slip on low heal or white sandals and its a dream. Cant wait to order another one soon!!!

Ocean Blue and Olive Kyra Midi - Incredibly Fabulous

I initially was negative about buying these dresses because, to me, they were expensive. But I needed something gorgeous for my niece's wedding, and I was having no luck, whatsoever finding a dress that was ""me. "" That is to say until I found Fuchisa. It was perfect. The wedding is outdoors, in August and with a slight boho theme. Once I received it, put it on and looked in the mirror, I was sold. Next I purchased the Ocean Blue and the Olive, but in Kyra Midi. The dresses are fabulous! They are wonderfully made: seams are double sewn and wrapped, the hems are perfectly even, the SLEEVE on the Kyras are just exquisite. You feel so feminine and lovely in these dresses. They are cool, and fresh and perfect for out 90 degree days here in Wyoming. They also appeal to my vibe - I'm 64, I only do light and fresh -- no more binding and tight, and, the best part is I am always complimented on whichever dress I'm wearing. Thanks DOI. I'm getting the Sita next. Just waiting for a ""DEAL"". :)

Gorgeous color and beautiful fit!

I purchased this as a gift for my Mom. She is 5'4"" and usually wears a US size 14. I got a her a 2XL and it fits her great everywhere. She loves it! We both have a dress in this cut and it is the most comfortable thing possible to wear and still look elegant.

My favourite casual dress!

I love it! It’s so light and airy to wear- perfect for Australian summer. I’m a small, slim person so I was a little concerned the dress might swallow me up, but it’s perfect! Also being short (5’2”) the midi dress is the perfect length as a maxi dress on me.

amazing color and feel

I waited a long time for this dress to be re-stocked in my size and it did not disappoint. The color is beautiful, the fit easy, and the feel is light and airy. I am 5'6 and 155lbs, I ordered the S. It is perfect.

Breezy and comfortable

The dress is ideal for hot weather. I’ve worn it during the heat wave in the South of France and it was the perfect choice. The fabric is very thin and soft.

Georgeous

I love my ocean blue midi. It's beautiful and breezy, and lovely for spring. I'm short and curvy, size 14. So I don't look like the tall slim models in the photos, but I still feel lovely in it. I ordered the medium and I'm happy with it. Not tight. i ordered a mini in Jade the following week in a large ( because I didn't want it too short) and again this size is fine. I love the mini design most, but the ocean blue is my favourite colour. Can't wait for saffron mini to restock.

BEAUTIFUL DRESS SUITS ALL AGES AND BODY TYPES

I initially ordered online a size XL and when received I realised it was way too big. Luckily I was able to visit their store and tried on a Medium one which fitted and looked perfect. The blue colour print is lovely and I made a lightweight cotton muslin skirt to wear underneath if I need more coverage. I am normally a 14 to 16 but in this style the Medium was the best fit,

I love this dress!

While I'd looked at the line of beautiful dresses by Daughters of India for a while, it took me a bit to actually decide which pattern and color; they are all so beautiful! I am a "textile junkie" and really appreciate the craftsmanship that has gone into the hand block fabrics, but the designs and construction of the garments are not to be glanced over. I purchased the Kyra Midi in Ocean Blue, a beautiful light teal. The design is comfortable and with the very light fabric, even on the hottest days it is a breeze to wear and enjoy. As the weather cools for the Fall, I'll probably style the dress with a shawl for extended wear. As a 68 year old woman, I may be at the top of your demographic, but always get compliments when I wear this dress. I'm also 5'4" and the midi dress hits between my ankle and lower calf. I plan on shortening it a bit to bring it up to mid calf; just a personal preference. Bravo to you for bringing this line of garments to us. . . Best,Meg in Boston

Beautiful Kyra dress

The Kyra dress is made from the most beautiful fabric. Such a cool breezy dress, that I think suits most body shapes. It doesn’t just hang, it still has a flowing shape. I’m usually a size 14 in a dress & I got the L & it fits nicely. The size guide was a great help & all the reviews from people. It is slightly sheer, but a cotton slip fixes that. I will be buying more colours ❤️

Just not right for me

Oh I wanted to love this dress. The pattern is gorgeous but something about the fit was not at all flattering on me. I’m 5’10” with a long(ish) torso and what I’m assuming is an actual a-line silhouette on most people, cut me right below the middle of my breasts. I also was not prepared for how exposed I’d feel without any lining to the skirt material. It’s not that it’s see-through, it just doesn’t feel like a dress I’d be able to wear out and about with any sort of regularity. For those reasons, I had to return.

soft summer dress

Pretty dress, beautiful light fabric, lovely blocked print, gorgeous colour. Floats around you. I found the super puffy sleeves to be a bit annoying, and OTT. I'd prefer less puff. Overall a lovely garment, definitely cold hand wash. Dries really quickly and doesn't bleed too much, pattern intact after washing, holds the colour.

Very happy

Item was true to size bearing in mind they are very flowy dresses. Med is a good size 12 - not a 10/12. My colour was accurate however my daughter bought a couple & although happy, colours were much brighter on website. Delivery etc was seamless.

Kyra Midi Dress Ocean Blue

This is my second Kyra dress, they are so soft and flowy. They feel beautiful and feminine. I love these dresses. I am usually a 10-12 and purchased a small which is perfect and 160cm tall and the length is great

Another Kyra

I have three of these dresses now and I love the style. Cool, floaty and very feminine. I was a bit disappointed with the colour of the ocean blue as I thought it would be more like the “ghost” dress ( the dress not on a model) but in fact it is a Teal colour. I will keep it and use it as these dresses are perfect for summer but I would have preferred a lighter, softer blue. Perhaps it was a new dye lot?

Ocean blue

Bought the L size. Fits very snug around my bust (I am 16DD) saving in my wardrobe for upcoming party. ♡ I have the Musk in XL more relaxed fit.

A work of art

This dress is everything I need in my wardrobe. It is literally a work of art and I feel wonderful every time I wear it The colour is even better in real life, it is a softer blue than on the website, great for the summer as it reminds me of the ocean. I am a 14 or 16 in clothing and purchased the Xl which is perfect Thank you to everyone at the Daughters of India

A work of art

I received my order yesterday and I am so happy with the dress. I am usually a size 14 or 16 in clothes and pleased I ordered the Xl as although not uncomfortably so is firm across the chest. Everything, the colour, fabric and the skill of the woman is superb. It’s more than a dress it’s a work of art

I get so many compliments every time I wear the dress! I will say, it's thinner than I thought it would be & I do wish there was a double lining as I'm a little worried about it being see through- but because it's so light it's the most perfect airy dress to keep me cool while pregnant. I could seriously live in the dress. Price is up there & I'm not completely sold that it matches the quality but it is still such a beautiful piece.

Beautiful!

This is officially my new favorite dress!! The fabric is gorgeous, and it fit perfectly too; I usually have trouble finding clothes since I'm very petite (152cm) but the XS was the perfect length. I am currently wearing it over tights and a turtleneck along with boots, but I can't wait for summer when I can just throw it on with a pair of flip flops:)

Stunning yet delicate

The dress is so stunning, so comfortable and flowy! Also, very light and not as sheer as I thought it might be. The colour is amazing, a true ocean blue. Love it! Yet, it's very delicate. I sat on it wrong a couple times and it ripped through the seams. Easy to fix but still something to keep in mind - wear with care 🙏

Love this dress!

The dress is light, flowy and comfortable. I usually wear a medium but chose a large to make sure it fit all of me. Good choice! Beautiful color.

Love the colours of this dress

This dress is super comfortable and flattering- I wear size 20 & purchased the 3X and fits perfectly - so many compliments when I wear this dress. Purchased the same dress in 2 other colours as loved it so much x

Another gorgeous dress

I love how light and floaty this cotton is. This dress does not have lining like the Nora and the fabric is sheer however due to the volume of fabric you cannot see through the dress when it is worn. As someone who is struggling with perimenopausal hot flashes these dresses have been a godsend. I feel wonderful everytime I wear a Daughter's of India dress.

Kyra Midi Ocean Blue

I am loving this addition to my summer wardrobe. I went for a size larger this time as I was keen to get an item with the bodice (not sure how you refer to the front panel). It fits well across the chest area The voluminous material of the majority of the garment flows well and is very cooling to wear in the summer heat.

Runs quite big, colour IRL difference

I previously bought the same style dress in a small. But the cut has changed a bit and I found it ran quite big now, the intro of pockets I dont think makes much of a difference as you can’t really use them anyway. The colour was also a bit misleading online and it doesn’t appear that in real life. I exchanged it for an XS and the customer service was good and they also did complementary express shipping for the replacement which was very nice. I still love the dresses

Kyra Midi dress

I'm so sad! I originally ordered a Nora maxi dress in size medium. I am 5'5, 139 lbs, small busted & usually take a size US 8. The color of the dress was muted and the contrast of colors didn't look like the picture. The dress was much too small across the bust. ( I measured it much smaller than what the sizing states) I returned the dress immediately and ordered the Kyra in size large. Again the color is not as pictured but I still love it. However, I don't understand why the maxi dress is lined and the midi dress is NOT LINED???Especially when you're paying the same price for a lot less material. No one wants to wear a shear cotton dress you can see through, especially if you're 60 years old!!! This makes no sense. I'm so disappointed and although the customer service was wonderful, I'm afraid that I will not be ordering from them again. 😞

Beautiful dress

This is a lovely blue and soft flowing dress. The small fits me well. I am 5’3” and 120 lbs. this is the 2nd dress I have purchased… the first was for my daughter… who loves hers too.

GO UP A SIZE

Nice dress but size chart seems to size down. I’d go up as across the bust it’s tight fit. Opening at neck “too low” Nice material. Ocean Blue pretty colour.

Beautiful dress but not right sizing

I love the dress, got many compliments but I found the cut under the bust area is a bit small saying I'm between 8-10 with small burst but its a bit tight and not stretching. This makes it a bit hard when putting on the dress. Otherwise its perfect.

Kyra midi dress

Beautiful dress, beautiful colourJust take care with sizing!I bought the same dress a few years ago, but in a different colour. This one is a lot smaller across the bust. I should have gone up a size. Overall very happy, quick delivery.

Kyra midi dress

I like a lot this dress. I got the wrong size but it doesn't matter. I like the fabric but I would have liked it to be thinner. In Spain it is very hot and a cotton voile would have been better. But I have to say that as soon as I can I will buy another one as it is very comfortable. Are you going to make yellow dresses again? I used to run a workshop in Morocco that worked with migrants, refugees and Moroccan women from very disadvantaged backgrounds. It was a wonderful experience, but difficult to maintain. All the more reason to tell you how much I appreciate your work. Very good luck and bravo

This Kyra midi dress is so worth the money! It is truly well made, and the fabric is soft and comfortable; quite feminine. I ordered my usual size, which fit comfortably on the shoulders and in the bust. I am a 36H through the bust; and depending on the style of the clothing item, sometimes I purchase a size larger or a size smaller. Shipping time was less than two weeks. I will most definitely order from this site again!

Another dream dress

I am so very pleased with this dress. I've done wood block printing and I am awed by the delicacy and precision displayed here. It's just perfect in every way! The color is so clear - almost watercolor like - and soft yet the pigment is well saturated. The construction of the dress is (as always with DoI) admirable - all those French seams! I have only praise for products and customer service - accurate depiction, careful and elegant packaging, swift shipping and the clothes are still the very best part!

A dream

The color is fantastic and this coloration has a bit of a longer bodice than my first order (in pale green- DOI customer service was wonderful with my exchange). This dress is the more gorgeous thing I've ever worn. So light and airy yet not see through, and an incredible quality cotton that feels amazing on. True love.

Beautiful but…

This dress is really beautiful and light. That being said, it is see through so may require a slip for certain occasions. The seam at the top of the bodice is tight and may present an issue for those who have larger cup sizes.
