Kyra Mini DressApricot Blush

Lovely dress

Just received my first Kyra mini. Fabric is so soft and comfortable and the color is beautiful and feminine. I'm 5'8 175lb with an E cup. Size L fits me perfectly and dress length hits right above the knee. Since Fabric is a little sheer and apricot color is on the lighter side, I choose to wear boxers/biker shorts underneath rather than a slip, for added coverage.

Such a lovely dress!

Thank you daughters of India! I find the dress absolutely comfortable and still very flattering! I love that it is so loose but till stays in place where you need it. See-through is no Problem since there is so much fabric at the skirt-part. I am 1. 67m and 53kg, i ordered an xs which is nice and loose but still in the right place for example at he shoulders etc. The fabric is a nice light cotton, smells good, not chemical etc. Delivery was amazingly fast and accurate - will definitely order another one 😁☀👗

Beautiful, But Too Short

As always, the dress feels beautiful on, light and floaty and absolutely gorgeous. Unfortunately the length is just too short for me. I’m about 168cm tall and usually wear somewhere in the realm of a size 22-26. I ordered the 3XL as I have with my other DOI dresses, and it fits nicely in all aspects except the length, which *barely* covers my nether regions. As a plus sized girl I think I’ll have to stick to the midi and maxi styles :’)For the DOI team: thank you, as always, for another beautiful dress and super prompt shipping. Maybe for the larger sizes a few extra inches on the length would make the dress much more wearable for larger ladies <3

Summer Fav!

Wonderful and fast service. The kyra dresses are delightful - I have in 2 colours, about to purchase a 3rd. Good length on me (I am 159cm), I am usually an 8-10/small in most things but I purchased the M for ample bust area. It's true that the dress sits nicer if you size up. The material is so floaty and cool and soft - you'll want to wear it every day in summer!

Lovely dress but consider your height

I'm 5' tall & mini Kyra hit just below knee (which I hoped for). The dress is very well made. The opening slit at neck is very low due to my height. I will wear tied & with nude colored camisole. In order for dress to look beautifully voluminous & flowy after its travels to Miami I had to iron it carefully - took at least 1/2 hour. I ordered according to bust measurement as instructed by Daughters of India & the size was correct. Suggestion: PETITE SIZES PLEASE!!

Stunning!

I absolutely love this addition to my DOI collection. I sized up this time just to compare the difference. I'm an 8 on top and 10 on the bottom most places and found both the XS and S comfortable. The small just feels a bit more comfy around the bust but you could do either way. Such a beautiful colour and one I'm looking forward to wearing this summer!

Love Love Love

I am literally in love with the kyra mini dresses. . . . I bought the apricot blush version and I added the musk and rust gauze later. All of them are wonderful and I feel so good wearing them because the style is so feminine and casual as well so that you can wear with every kind of shoes/boots or simply wit flip flop/barefoot. The apricot blush shade is very delicate and it makes my personal face traits softer and naif. This year I turned 48 and still this dress looks so good on me (not too short not too long) as if I went back into my thirties. I would love to get the chance to get either the olive or jade version too which are totally sold out at the moment but also looking forward to see the new arrivals. As of now I got 6 dresses from DOI 3 maxi and 3 mini dresses. The maxi versions I had to bring to the taylor for some changes because I am not used to wear such roomy garments (except for the Diya which is just perfect) but the mini dresses looks really great and don't need anything more. I am quite lean and masculine bodyshape and I can wear both xs or s in DOI for a shorter or longer version while not big difference overall. I think the dresses are slightly oversized for those who have small chest and wide shoulders that's why I can wear both sizes while usually wearing an s. Probably they fit true to size for those who have bigger chest. Thanks DOI for amking us feel so special and loved

Gorgeous!

So perfect as an everyday dress. I’m a true to size 6 and not very tall (5’5) but the xs is on the shorter side. I personally don’t have a problem with the length, but you may want to consider sizing up if this would be a problem for you.

Not for the busty plus size girl

Ugh! I wanted to love this so bad! It’s beautiful and flowy! However where the stitching hits is not meant for busty women. The dress itself fit but it didn’t lay right and did not go over my bust. Very disappointing. But looking back on all the videos and pictures most of the women are the opposite of busty. So, my fault for not paying attention to that. Product is beautiful, the night stitch is not for the busty plus size girl. For reference I am a size 18/20 in dresses and a 40DD.

Beautiful dress but so insanely see-through!

The dress is gorgeous, so flowy, light and POCKETS! Who doesn't love pockets. However, it's such a shame how see-through it is and that it's not lined or that Daughters of India don't have a slip to purchase with it. I eventually managed to get my hands on a nude skirt so my knickers could stop showing. I've washed it a number of times and the dress has kept its shape so nicely. I will intend to purchase again if and when another sale comes around.

Most Beautiful Dress

I'm in love with this dress, it's my second daughters of India Dress and it does not disappoint. The material is so lightweight and flows so elegantly. Not too see through. I feel amazing in it. Yes to having more so worth saving for. Leave the look alikes and take the plunge worth every penny. Apricot Blush Size L, I'm a UK 12 to 14

tunic dress

My height is 170 centimeters, bust B. I planned to wear this dress to the sea, but unfortunately this is not my style of dress. My figure is deteriorating in this dress, there is no silhouette of femininity. I look like a pregnant woman, and for my height it seems to me that I am I borrowed a dress from a child. The fabric is very beautiful, the shade is not as light as in the photo, more of a delicate peach with a pink tint. I would really like you to develop a style with an accentuated waist. For now these are not my dresses

Flows with femininity

I am lucky enough to live near the Daughters of India Byron Bay store so I was able to try on many of their beautiful dresses in lots of colours. It was a tough decision to bring it down to one dress (for now anyway!). But it was the newly released Kyra Mini in Apricot Blush that I kept coming back to. I even had a girlfriend come with me and when I walked out of the dressing room in it she said: 'That's beautiful on you'. And I felt it too, the moment I put this dress on. It makes me feel feminine, free and sexy. The generosity and softness of the cotton fabric is unbelievable as it swishes and swirls around you as you walk. I decided to go up a size from my normal medium to a large to gain a little more length and coverage for my legs. I am genuinely excited about my purchase from DOI and will definitely return to buy more dresses in the future, not only for their beauty but mostly for the sustainable ethics of this quality clothing and company. Thank you DOI. Mx

Support women's business. . . but

The dress was far overpriced for the fit and construction. I am not a large breasted woman, but it was like being in a panini press. I order larger bc I have a wide rib cage. The rest of the dress swallowed me. It was totally see through. I was a textile major and appreciate this very much. The print and concept is good. . . but ouch for the price, return policy and limited inventory of choice with a credit stinks. I want your business to thrive but women's bodies are all different and for the price of this dress I should not have to wear a slip and should be able to wear a bra. I wish your business the best.

Beautiful fabric!

I am very happy with this dress. It is slightly see through with the lighter color, but I wore tan shorts and you couldn’t tell!

Super soft and fine

The design and cut of the dress is outstanding, the print of the fabric and colour just stunning BUT whilst the bodice over the bust is double layer, the skirt isn’t and way too see through. When it’s not a dark colour or solid print, the dress wld benefit from either a light weight slip or preferably apply the same double layering as you have in the bodice.

This dress is incredibly beautiful. I love how feminine and delicate it is. I am petite, so the length is good for me. However, if you have a larger bust, this dress may not be ideal. The dress is also quite sheer, and the neckline could be too revealing if you have a larger chest.

Adorable summer dress

This dress is just adorable! The softest fabric and sits so nicely. Mini dresses are usually always so short on me but this was the perfect length!It's slightly sheer on the bottom so recommend wearing some nude underwear or wearing to the beach!Can't wait to get another dress summer dress!

Beautiful colour and style! I’m 5’7” with a long torso and it works. Definitely shorter but great with a pair of nude bike shorts underneath!

I’ve bought two of these dresses before , this one is much tighter across the bust but wearable . It would be great if companies stuck to same sizes from start to finish . I love them anyway but this is a bit disappointing .

Love it but very sheer

The colour of this dress is divine! However. . . it is pretty much see through. I took it away with me on the weekend (not having tried it on as I have had this style before) only to find I couldn't wear it as it was so sheer. I have since found a really light cotton voile slip to wear with it but had to get the slip altered to make it shorter to fit under the dress. Would be amazing if you guys made lightweight slips to suit your dresses so customers could purchase if need be.

Kyra apricot

Easy dress to throw onSuper light and floatyVery sheerQuite shortSleeve ends are a bit tightWould buy the midi length next time

As with all of the daughters of India products I have purchased this dress feels like wearing air, it is so unbelievably comfortable and flattering. I wore it this weekend and was stopped by a few different women complementing me on it. It was a warm day and I didn’t get overly hot at all because the dress breathes so beautifully

Kyra blush

Love the dress, I feel floaty and gorgeous in it. Purchased another mini and two midi. I live in Fiji - the dress is so light the breeze passes right through, quick easy wash, no iron. Perfect

Different fabric than usual.

I really love the color of the dress and the cut is great as usual. I notice that the fabric feels very different to the previous dresses that I purchased from Daughter of India. Even though it says that it is 100% cotton, it feels very differently. I think the previous dresses that I purchased use better quality fabric.

Apricot love

Just love the colour, should have sized up as my boobs big but still can get away with it, nice and light and flowy for these hot summers

Beautiful look and feel

The Kyra mini in Apricot blush looks and feels incredible. The softest fabric, ever so generous, with the perfect amount of shape. A very flattering length for someone who doesn't normally choose minis! This dress feels as though I'm wearing a cloud, and looks so pretty and feminine.

See through

I liked the pattern, however I returned this item as it was too see through for me to wear without a slip under it.

Decadent Wearing

I bought a maxi and a mini and when there is a daily average temperature of over 40 degrees celsius they are floaty feminine and lovely to wear. I missed reading the note about the mini being sheer so I’m not sure its age appropriate for me (and in this heat I’m not about to be layering) but the dress itself is so beautiful.

Flowy and Feminine

I love my new Daughters of India dress. I took it with me on a recent trip to Bali and it was perfect. I love that it's not lined - the soft flowy fabric is cool and feminine. I look forward to having an excuse to order another one. Thank you to your team and the talented women in India that are creating these beautiful garments. Sarah XX PS. have you thought about offering tours of your small factories outside Jaipur to let keen customers see first hand how fair trade works, the hand block printers, dyers, and hand stitching artists? I'd love to go on a tour with you :) XX

Perfect but see through

I have ordered the dress for the summer season , i love the touch the lightness the beautiful prints , there is really no problem but the fact that it is missing a lining which should be a basic thing is just disappointing. Unfortunately i cannot wear it in the city only at the beach , that means i will wear it 1-2x per year . . please consider the lining next time.

Stunning simplicity

I love wearing this dress - it’s feminine and effortless and so comfortable to wear. It is more see through than I was expecting but it doesn’t stop me wearing it for any occasion. I know I’ll reach for this over and over again for years to come:

Love it

Beautiful as expected, a little see trough but it works for me!

Kyra mini dress

Such a beautiful team that helped with my purchase. Beautifully made dress I love the style but it really wasn't what I was expecting, wasn't as light and fluffy as I thought. Still happy, just not over the moon. Glad I sized up a size as recommended by another review.

In love

It's my third dress from daughters of India! Love the materials and lightweight feels on. This colour is a bit more sheer than other colours. Beautiful dress♡

Kyra Mini Dress

I wanted to love this dress so much. However, it took a very long time to iron it, and then when I put it on, I realized it was see thru. So I now wear as a cover up. Fabric design is so beautiful

Beautiful dress

This is a gorgeous dress, finished to the highest quality. The garment benefited from a quick hand wash just to soften the cotton but it is extremely light and comfortable to wear. I bought it during the sales, otherwise it would have been more than I could reasonably afford. The sales process was straightforward and the dress arrived swiftly. I would not hesitate to recommend the company.

This dress is gorgeous - light, airy, comfortable and easy to throw on! But it is SO sheer, you just cannot wear it without a slip underneath. I’d read this when purchasing, so I had a slip ready to go but I would prefer if it were lined.

Beautiful Dress

I loved this dress . Us sizes mean nothing. . bust size does. The US size chart is not really what it is here on the chart. Thank You for answering my questions on that. I was very informed on the shipping date and when it would arrive. Thank You !

Beautifully light and airy dress

Love the gorgeous apricot colour/print and the 'easy to wear' flattering design. The cotton fabric is light and airy and perfect for long summer days. In addition the impeccable ethics of this company means I will purchase more in the future. 💖

Beautifully made

It's very pretty BUT unfortunately it just doesn't suit me and makes me look HUGE. I have a maxi and a midi from DOI which suit me and my boho spirit better but the mini is just not right for me.

Disappointed TBH

The light weight material is beautiful but not what is pictured in adverts. I thought it was going to be thicker. I measured my bust and it does fit my busy bust. However, the bust line is higher than my bust, which looks silly. I will wear but not for its intended purpose.

I feel like a fresh apricot

The Kyra Mini Dress in apricot (size S) is wonderfully light, fresh, and airy. It looks beautiful on, and I'm already eagerly looking forward to summer so I can wear it!

So beautiful and flowy. It is more than I would usually spend…but I’m glad I did. The quality is worth the price. This is about to be a staple item for me. I originally ordered the wrong size. The r return was easy and annoyance free.

Perfect summer vibe

What a beautiful dress. It is a bit seethrough, but it doesn't bother me. Perfect summery dress a bit flirty and girly. Love the colour, the feel when wearing it, just blissful.

Worth the waiting!

It was out of stock for so long ! So when it was back online, I immediately made the order!! I love everything about it ! The color, how it sits on my body ! It is sheer but with with shorts underneath or with a bikini at the beach, it will look good! Of course at home I am wearing only this !

50/50

Beautiful piece but very very see through/sheer and very short on someone who’s 5’11

Beautiful dress

This dress is my go to dress for those hot summer days. Light and comfortable. I had to size up for an oversized flowy look.

Love it

Easy to wear. You can dress it up or wear it over your swimmers to the beach. Very versatile. A little pricey for what it is. I do wear it a lot. Prompt delivery.

Beautiful quality

I am absolutely in love with my kyra mini dress . Fits perfect So soft and feels amazing on. Perfect for those hot summer days to throw over my swimsuit and even head to dinner afterwards .
