Zahra Midi Dress Fern · A$239
Discharge screen printed
The making of Fern
Discharge printing begins by dyeing the fabric before a special paste is hand screen printed onto the surface. Fine corn flour is dusted over the fabric to guide precise placement.
Very pretty not so impressed with the fabric and the dress is not that lightweight I would buy if it was cotton the colour and style is lovely I should have checked the fabric type before I bought so my fault

Purchase of the year!
This is by THE best purchase I've made this entire year so far! Words cannot aptly describe just how much I love the Zahra Midi Dress Fern. The material? *chefs kiss*. By the time night had come around, I was half tempted to wear them as pyjamas! That's hows beautifully soft the fabric is. The style is so cute, and the print is even cuter. I appreciate that this style has sleeves that come down to the wrist, as I am quite self-concious of my arms and cannot leave the house in a sleeveless dress. Daughters of India, if you would ever bring out more full-length sleeve styles in the future, I'd buy your whole stock! I wore it to work the day after I received it, and received many compliments on it. I'm someone who cares a lot about modesty and comfort, so the relaxed fit was a hit for me. It is intentionally designed to be oversized, so make sure to have a look at the size chart before purchasing. The only 'issue' I've had with it so far is that it sometimes falls off my shoulders, but I found this can easily be fixed by adjusting the draw strings at the front. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase, and am awaiting the restock of the Zahra Dress in the Indigo print (XS) with excitement. Thank you so much DOI team for this beautiful dress!
