Hand screen printed
The making of Bluebell
Screen printing is a skilled process using large stencils stretched across printing tables to build designs layer by layer. Two artisans work in unison, pressing ink evenly through the screen to ensure consistency across the fabric.
The dress is very elegant yet whimsical. I ordered 2XL due to chest size, but at 165cm it was a lot fabric and also quite long, so I reordered in L and it was perfect everywhere in that it looked much like the larger model wore it in the advertising, so I was happy. However, I have plumper arms and it was a tad tight around the arm. I queried with the very helpful staff at DOI who responded quickly & decided to try a fix. Some dresses are made with elastic sewn in, which makes it impossible to alter them. Happily the DOI craftspeople have made the band a simple elastic that you can access easily to alter yourself. The dress now fits me perfectly. It is very casual but not cheap looking. Given the climate where I live is very hot I will get the opportunity to wear it a lot. The fabric is beautiful, but I won't be doing any cooking or gardening it as it is thin. It has a sheath sewn in, so not transparent, but it is lovely and floaty. It is a flattering style for a fuller figure and the colour tones are true to the photos and excellent for the summer complected.

Busty Girl Advice
This is the most beautiful dress in a dreamy, soft cotton fabric. I feel like I stepped out of Pride & Prejudice. As a curvier girl, I read every review trying to find more info about sizing with no luck, so here's my take: I'm a US 16 with an hourglass shape, and I ordered the 2x and it fits like a dream. My bust is 40DD, and I think if I was even a bit larger in the chest, I would need a 3x. I waffled between the XL (my usual size) and the 2x. I'm really glad I went with the 2x as it would have been way too small in the chest otherwise. The 2x is the perfect size, I can wear a bra with it - a must, so I might need to sew up the keyhole - and the fabric sort of flows around your body in a way that's flattering even though it doesn't have a defined waist. I want to live in it!
Daughters of India
Hi Rachel,Thank you so much for your beautiful review - we're absolutely delighted to hear how much you love your Sita dress! The Pride and Prejudice reference made our day, and we're glad the 2XL was the perfect fit.It's wonderful to know the fabric and flow feel flattering and comfortable - that's exactly what we aim for.Thanks again for sharing your experience with us!Much Love, Daughters of India 🦋🩵

What a lovely dress
I almost never write reviews, but I loved this dress so much I had to leave one! I'm normally a 4-6 (US) but am 30 weeks pregnant. Ordered this in a size small in hopes it'll work for newborn photos and after, and it's perfect. The bust is the most fitted spot, but as someone with a large bust, smaller ribcage and narrow shoulders, it fits perfectly both pregnant and I know it will postpartum too. The fabric is so flowy too! I'm 5'7, and length was perfect.
Daughters of India

Boho Blue meets Bridgerton
Updating my Gold Coast 2025 summer wardrobe so I was looking for floaty relaxed maxi dresses preferably with sleeves and the Sita dress ticked all the boxes, arrived in record time and fits like a glove. The fabric is so soft, love that it is lined, it looks and feels lovely on my skin and the colour is gorgeous. I am a size 14 and I ordered an XL as I like a relaxed fit. I know I will be wearing this dress all year round.

Well made but unfortunately medium was way too big on me and I’m 5.5 130 lbs so I returned

Our flowing silhouettes can sometimes feel roomier than expected, so we recommend checking the garment measurements listed on each product page to help find your best fit. ✨

Love
This is my absolute favourite dress. I love it enough to have bought 2 colours and to be tempted by a 3rd (if only I could pull off yellow or olive!). I feel like a Jane Austen heroin but also cool and breezy. I wear an 18-20 and am large busted so bought a 3XL for coverage (based on reviews) but should have gone the 2XL I think. It is still lovely. Just roomy enough to move around which is a problem when hauling toddlers! But even as a plus sized person this dress makes me feel elegant and graceful (and that is a hard feet)! If I could make any changes I would add a draw string under the bust and some buttons on the keyhole where the neckline ties up (I may do both one day).

Could not love it more
The perfect dress for easy going casual event or day. The fabric is super soft, the fit is perfect (got a M and I am 5,9", wide hips, usually an 8 or 10 in regular sizing). Perfect for summer and humid climates. Got the Violet and it looks so girly. LOVE LOVE need every color and we NEED a white, orange and red version
Daughters of India
Hi Dani ~ Thank you so much for this lovely review! We're thrilled to hear that the Sita dress was a perfect match for you, especially in the violet - it really is such a gorgeous, feminine shade! 💜We love your colour suggestions, - white, orange and red sound like dreamy additions, and we'll definitely pass that on to our design team!

New favorite dress
I absolutely am obsessed with this dress! I got a size medium, the small was sold out but I actually sewed the tassels to be able to adjust the fit to be tighter or looser. The color blue is a little darker than pictured on their website but still beautiful. Even though it is fully lined it is very light weight and breathable. Just obsessed.

Perfect Summer Dress 🦋
I bought the Sita Maxi Dress in both blue and yellow and absolutely love them! The colours are beautiful and look even nicer in person. The fit is really flattering and comfortable, and I love that it’s not see-through — it has a proper layer underneath. Such an easy, flowy dress to throw on and feel good in. So glad I got both colours!Thank you DOI🩵

Gorgeous dress
Absolutely love this dress. Beautifully made and well presented when I received it. This is true to pics on website. Colour and print is amazing and dress is soo comfortable. Very feminine. Love added extra of the cloth tote that I received and definitely has my friends asking me about DOI. I’ve noticed other women looking at my dress when I’ve worn it too. I got the large but should have sized down as it’s a little big for me. So incredibly grateful to be wearing a beautiful garment made by beautiful women. Well done !
Aneesah · Verified buyer · 13 December 2024
So flattering
I love this dress! I had been eyeing the Sita dress for a while, but it sells out so quickly, and I was also going back and forth on whether I wanted to splurge on it, but I finally took the plunge when they came out with the Bluebell colour. I am SO glad I did. I find it hard to find a dress with a free-flowing silhouette that doesn't look like a potato sack, but the cut of this dress is perfect. It is comfortable, flattering and so pretty. If you're into more free-flowing silhouettes, I would highly recommend! For reference, I'm 5'2" and the length was fine on me.

Softest dress I own
This is an exceptionally soft fabric and the colour is better in real life. Just beautiful. Moves beautifully and the sizing is spot on. While I have no complaints about this dress can I suggest your next design is similar but with slightly more of an empire waistline. That would be many a person's dream dress. Thank you.
Daughters of India
Thank you for sharing your kind words. Your feedback means the world to us. I will pass on your suggestion to our team. Much Love 💛

Pretty but shapeless
Lovely fabric and neckline. It would be wonderful is the dress was more fitted under the bust to give an empire waistline to avoid looking like maternity wear. I also found the bust panels a bit too shallow and I kept having to pull the dress back into place. I wore the dress with a white scarf around my waist to provide a waistline.

I ordered this dress to wear to a beac wedding and it was the perfect look / weight / fabric for the occasion. I wore it off the shoulder but will wear it with the sleeves up during summer. Such stunning fabric and a loose flowy fit which is really flattering.

This was my first purchase from Daughters of India. I was impressed by how quickly my package got to me in Canada. I love the softness and quality of the material. The colour and style is perfect for me. I understand these dresses are meant to be flowy but next time I may opt for a smaller size. I purchased my true size a large. Perhaps there may be some shrinkage?

Amazing dress
Such a beautiful dress to wear. Bonus is that it's not see through considering how light and airy it feels when wearing. I have a few colours in this dress but unfortunately I had to return the blue one as the one I received had a hole in the back. Customer care were amazing when I contacted them and refunded me promptly once they received my return. Not to worry, I still have the dress in Violet and another in daffodil and wear them regularly. The pink is my favourite.

Pretty and lined
This is my second Sita dress. It's pretty, but the fabric is not as soft as the pink version, for some reason. I'd love to see this silhouette in emerald green or a deep red!
Daughters of India
Hi Allison, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and suggestions. The Bluebell may not feel as soft as your Violet due to the Bluebell being a darker and therefore, heavier dye. After a few washes it should feel just as soft as your Violet Sita!
