Gorgeous colour, style with glamour
"Gorgeous colour, style with glamour but so comfy to wear all day into the evening…"
The Sita Maxi Dress in Bluebell has been lovingly and mindfully hand-crafted using beautiful hand screen printed fabric. This flattering feminine silhouette adorned with hand-placed florals features an elasticated scoop neckline finished with a self-adjustable tie at the bust, elasticated sleeves, and a captivating floor-length tiered design bringing the stunning blue hues to life.
We recommend a gentle, cold water hand wash using natural detergents, and hang drying in the shade. Handcrafted garments are delicate, however, designed to last when treated mindfully with love and care.
Lovingly handmade in India, each piece may vary slightly in colour — a natural part of its unique beauty.
At the heart of Daughters of India, we believe supporting women to feel empowered is a key component of a positive future.
We have pledged an ongoing monthly donation of $10,000 to support our charity partnerships Sewing the Seeds and Saheli Women.



Sewing the Seeds is a women’s empowerment initiative that uses education and creativity in slow fashion to help break the cycle of poverty for Indian women. Their centre offers training in business, finance, and women’s health, fostering self-confidence in a supportive environment.

"Gorgeous colour, style with glamour but so comfy to wear all day into the evening…"
"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."
"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🩵"
"My dress arrived very quickly and it fits like a glove! I'm a size 14 and I ordered an XL as I like a relaxed fit. The fabric is incredibly soft and light, love that it is lined, the colour is as advertised and the style is very flattering. I can see myself wearing this all year round."
"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."
"First time ordering from daughters of India and I'm obsessed!! Im currently 3 month post partum and needed a few dresses for summer to add to the wasrobe. Fits beautifully and looks amazing :)"
"I love the dress. It’s quality made and is beautiful. It was definitely a splurge item for me because it’s quite expensive but I will have it for years to come."
"The Sita Bluebell Maxi is such a beautiful piece! Feel like I’m floating when I wear it… I own it in violet also and I love them both, feminine, comfortable and flattering. So easy to wear in so many ways."
"First purchase, high quality, lined and I'll be wearing a lot through summer as it's so light. Think this dress will last me for a very long time."
"I love the dress and the style is perfect. Unfortunately it is very long and I have to shorten it. And I will buy another one soon."
