Ever since I was young, I’ve always loved clothes. For me, my outfit is the prophetic code to how my day will go. Feeling myself? You know it’s going to be a good day. So, it should come as no surprise that I’ll go to great lengths to ensure my wardrobe is up to par. I’m someone who relishes in options - the less I can repeat an outfit the better. However, that is not the most practical option … for my wallet OR the environment.
Attempting to reduce my fast fashion intake, I sought out other options to build out my capsule collection. However, it wasn’t until I came across Daughters of India that I knew I was on to something. AND because hot girls don’t gatekeep, I’ll let you in on the secret:
Daughters of India is slow fashion company which supports artisans from the village and surrounding area of Jaipur, India. Not only are their clothes sustainable and ethical, but they're also flat out AWESOME... more on that below!
HERE’S THE DRESS SCOOP:
- Sizing: I’m 5 ft 6 inches and ordered a small since the style was oversized. Typically I’m a medium, so I’d definitely recommend sizing down here.
- Favorite feature: the pockets. One more time for the people in the back - THE POCKETS 👏🏼
- The Fit: The flow-y nature of this dress is what MAKES it. It is so flattering for any body type! I’m an hourglass shape and my roommate is a pear shape - the dress looked equally amazing on both of us. When my cousin was in the earlier stages of her pregnancy, I got her this dress. It hid her bump so well, she still talks about it to this day… and bought it for all of her pregnant friends! Not to mention the long length makes it appropriate for ALL seasons - huge win for a dress.

HOW TO STYLE FOR MAXIMUM VERSATILITY:
If you’re going out on the town
Throw on a leather jacket and heeled bootie and you’re ready to go!
If you want some pizazz & a western vibe
I don’t know about you, but sometimes I’m just feeling a Western vibe. Whether you’re taking a trip to Nashville or Austin, or just feeling funky, pair the dress with some cowboy boots, a personality belt, and a hat, and you’ve got a complete look.
If you want a look to take you from day to night
Nothing says day to night like a sweater & black bootie situation. What I love about the sweater look is that it transforms the dress from a dress to a skirt + top look.
If you want to dress it down for a casual vibe
That good good fashion sneaker / dress combo. Works every time!
HERE’S THE TLDR - I FOUND THE DRESS THAT’S:
- Versatile
- Flattering on all body shapes
- Wearable in all four season
- Quality fabrics
- Environmentally friendly
- Supports Indian Women Villagers
- Reasonably priced
- Shipping / Returns
- Exclusive 15% Off Discount with Code MSA
What more could you want in a dress? If this were a dating app, you would’ve swiped right already. I told you I wouldn’t gatekeep so my work here is done. All that’s left is purchase!
