Kyra Midi DressApricot Blush

This is my fourth Daughters of India dress and third in this silhouette. I get so many compliments on this style, and it makes me feel powerful in a lovely, feminine way— this style of the dress commands attention. Tip: I wear flesh-tone bike shorts under all my Daughters of India dresses because the fabric is thin. The dress itself is very comfortable. However, let it be known that the Apricot Blush color is indeed a cantaloupe-colored, almost sherbet-orange— not a muted, shell/blush pink as depicted on the model. It’s not bad, it’s just not accurately represented in my opinion, even accounting for the handmade nature of this dress. I probably would not have ordered this color if I knew it was more “Apricot (orange)” than “Blush (pink). ” It’s still nice, but it’s not what I originally wanted— a delicate pink. The color has grown on me, and I plan to keep it. However, I think this Cantaloupe/Apricot color isn’t as versatile and wouldn’t suit some people. Hope this helps. Still a loyal customer!

Pretty but not a flattering cut

I bought my first Kyra dress as a maxi size which I loved and wear it all the time. I bought my second Kyra in this apricot blush color but the midi size - and for some reason I look completely frumpy in this cut. Not sure if it was the cut or color or both but I returned it and will not be getting another midi dress, will stick to the maxi size moving forward.

Apricot Blush

My 5th dress from DOI love them all, wanted the Caramel colour but out of stock altho Apricot suits me to. The dresses do vary a bit in cut each time,this one is a bit longer in the bodice which I prefer, sits just under bust line more flattering. They are all a bit see thru, I purchased a fine cotton slip online so can wear with all dresses. Many suggestions for DOI to make slips 👍. Tnx DOI for $50 gift, looking at the Scarlett top for next buy! Size: I’m 12/14 5’5 sometimes I’m in between M to L but go for L more comfortable.

As soft and sweet as an apricot!

I don't know where to begin with this dress. I have tried several Kyras over the years, and each colorway has a unique feel to the fabric. Some feel a bit crispier, some feel softer, some feel slightly heavier some feel lighter. Out of the 6 Kyras I've tried, this one is the softest, most lightweight of them all. Sheerness is definitely most noticeable with this colorway because the colorway has almost no contrast to it so the pattern doesn't distract from the shapes beneath the fabric. At first I was a little surprised but as I swung and swayed about in the softness of the drapery, I fell MADLY IN LOVE with it. I could see my form, beneath the drapery, but still discrete, still subtle - but OH SO FEMININE. And the movement of the fabric is just stunning - it looks and feels like the drapery worn by ancient sculptures and depicted in ancient frescos and paintings. I can see myself walking through Italy in its peak summer wearing this dress and feeling completely refreshed, as though totally naked, but shrouded in its beautiful, flouncy form. What more can I say? The fabric is just divine. I was beginning to feel a little guilty about all the pieces I've been accumulating, until the Apricot Midi arrived, and then, I had this EUREKA moment, like FINALLY I HAVE ARRIVED!!! THIS IS ***THE DOI DRESS*** I've been dreaming of. She's here. So thank you DOI for continuing to WOW and INSPIRE me. So happy you exist, and make such beautiful pieces for women around the world to revel in.

Pretty Fabric

The fabric is very pretty and great for the heat, but completely see through. It’s a pretty dress, but cut for a smaller frame and was flattening and unflattering across the chest. I expect it has been made with modesty in mind. I am 5ft 9, slim European 10/12. The sleeves are perfectly voluminous, but the cuff is tiny which makes it hard to wear. I don’t have huge arms, but had to remake the cuffs. I felt the pattern cutting could be better as this dress could be a lot more flattering considering how much fabric is in it. I however, do not think I am their target size. Probably good for tiny, skinny people at the beach or fine to wear at home when it’s hot.

Soft, Feminine & Perfect for Philippine Summer

This dress feels so feminine, soft, and effortlessly beautiful. The fabric is incredibly light and breathable, which makes it perfect for the hot and humid weather here in the Philippines. Even while walking around the city, I still felt comfortable and fresh all day.
The soft peach color gives such a calm and pleasant feeling — elegant without trying too hard. I also noticed how people would look and compliment the dress because it flows so beautifully and has such a graceful presence when worn. Definitely one of those pieces that makes you feel both comfortable and confidently feminine at the same time.

Love this

I adore this dress, I bought a size M for some extra volume but it really wasn't necessary. I kind of regret not buying it in XS size, since I bought the Kyra in XS and fits perfectly, but I love it either way!

Size a bit to small

My overall experience was great! Size M was a bit too small for me, I am a medium and between 10 and 12 but the size M is definitely a size 10. In Holland 38 is compared to a 12

Lovely dress, delicious colour

Beautiful, light yet lush dress which is like a soft hug to wear. It’s great on a hot day as it somehow feels cooling , what with its flowy lightness. I am happy DOI now creates dresses that fit my size, since I have very large breasts. Discovering this recently has been a major gamechanger in my ‘relationship’ to this brand and I have purchased a lot of dresses almost at once, after I found out that sizes have improved for me in many of the styles. . . but especially the Kyra dress. ( and the Jasmine style)This and the other dresses from DOU are my favourite sort of clothes and I feel like wearing it every day. 💛🧡

Beautiful dress

I own two Kyra Mini dresses, and I find them incredibly comfortable, which is why I decided to get a longer version. I’m quite short (162 cm), so I was happy to see that the length of the Midi still falls above my ankle. As always, the quality is great, and the comfort is unmatched!

Bit hard to get on.

Loved the dress, only issue is I have trouble getting it over my head,The first dress I bought ripped when I was putting it on. I bought a size S and it fits everywhere else. Always get lovely comments when I wear them.

Beautiful Fabric

Very light and airy, perfect for summer! A little sheer compared to the darker fabrics but fine with nude underwear. I absolutely love these dresses and want one in every colour! So feminine and flowy, such great quality and I love the sustainability / slow fashion ethics <3

Nice and simple dress

Size runs large so size down. I’m 160cm, 65kg and 8 months pregnant, purchased size S and is still rather roomy on. Wished I had sized down. Simple and easy throw on dress. Material is nice, thin and airy but quite delicate.

Stunning!

Absolutely love this dress, the colour and pattern is even more stunning in person, so so comfy and I was so pleasantly surprised when I realised it has pockets! It is a little on the sheer side but that doesn’t bother me. So gorgeous and feminine yet practical as well.

Love the color and print. Needs a slip underneath because it is sheer. Comfortable and cute.

Really fast delivery

Thank you for the fast delivery (within 4 days to Europe)! I like the dress, in abricot it looks lovely, the fabric seems pretty (still wet) and the quality is fine. But as other Reviews said, the dress seems to me very big in l. When I washed it with mild bio detergents, a smell like Mineral oil appeared, even after a second washing. I hope the odour disappears and the dress can be fitted with a few stitches.

Too large

I purchase the Kyra dress in white gauze. Loved it, so I ordered the same size in the peach. Way too large. . . gave it to a friend that loves it. Be nice if sizing was more accurate. Peace

Same as photo. . . liked so much, şadies with curved body can buy 1 size larger.

Sad

The dress was great until I washed it. Some colour washed out and it is difficult to iron.

I have two. I want another one.

Beautiful dresses, well-crafted, a delight to wear. I would love to see you create cotton - full or half slips - to be worn underneath the midi/maxi dresses, as they are quite sheer. ❤️

Challenging fit if you have a larger chest

I just received my first order from DOI and while the dress itself is gorgeous and well made, I was a little disappointed with the fit through the bodice. I ordered my usual size L but the waist seam ended up hitting my bust in a very unflattering way, I think I'll be able to make it work with some strategically placed boob tape but I'd definitely recommend triple checking your measurements and sizing up if you're looking for something low maintenance.

Love it!

Beautiful fabric, beautiful dress!I would like the bottom part not to be seen through but that can be fixed with an under dress. Still feel like a queen with it! Thank you! Cant wait to order another one in the future

Just Beautiful!

I originally ordered this dress in black but it was too small. I returned it and got a credit and waited for 2 months for a larger black one. I gave up waiting last week and ordered a different colour. I'm still hoping the black dress becomes available again and I'm waiting for an email update on that. The apricot blush colour that I bought arrived very quickly and I'm over the moon with it. It's absolutely beautiful and feels luxurious to wear. I would definitely size up in this style. I'm just hoping the black one will be available again soon. I had the opportunity to buy 2 and get one for free but unless the black one becomes available I'll probably miss out on that deal. Highly recommend this beautiful dress!

Lovely dress, the quality is fantastic. I do wish it had a slip or something underneath as it is a bit more see through than I would like.

Wunderschönes Kleid

Ich liebe das Kleid! Die Qualität ist sehr gut und das Kleid trägt sich einfach wunderbar!

Nice dress

I really like this dress, especially how flowy it is. However, the quality is comparable to items that can be found online at much lower price points. At this price point, I was expecting a higher quality garment.

Apricot Kyra Midi Dress

Wore it for the first time last night. I like the flow of it. The dress fit very nicely. I now need to purchase a slip to wear underneath it.

Feels like a dream

I have had nothing but compliments for my flown dress. It is so comfortable and pretty that anyone would love wearing it. It was sent quickly, and the quality was excellent. Probably I will buy a few more.

The perfect dress for the occasion!

I ordered this dress to wear to a party during a wedding weekend in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico and it was perfect, dressy enough for the party, but nice and cool and floaty. I received many compliments, and look forward to wearing it again!

The style does not suit my body shape

Although the dress is very pretty indeed the high waist sits right on my bust line and does not hang well at all . It is such a pity. The second one which I bought in blue and the maxi length is perfect and I am thrilled with it .

Love this dress!

I'm absolutely in love with DOI dresses! They're incredibly soft, comfortable, and make me feel so feminine every time I wear them. I especially appreciate that this particular dress has pockets-such a practical and thoughtful touch! My previous Kyra midi dresses didn't have them, so this is a wonderful addition that makes a big difference.

lovely casual dress

I have 4 o the Daughters of India and enjoy wearing all of them. They are soft, easy to maintain, great to wear around the house - look dressed but are very comfy,

best purchase of my life

I am now a devoted fan of daughters of India and can’t imagine wearing anything else. This dress makes me feel beautiful and is forgiving of all the changes in my body. I have since bought many more and can’t wait to make them a staple of my daily wardrobe. Simplicity, elegance, beauty and attention to detail, these can be dressed up or down and layered in winter with slips and tights. My new favorite.

Beautiful dress

This dress is beautiful, flowy, lightweight & cool on a warm day - I love the fact that DOI is slow fashion label which is environmentally & ethically conscious and who support the artisans and makers. Thank you so much for my thoughtful bonus gift - Aphrodite's Journal - I love it! 💕

Lovely, well made dress

The dress is gorgeous! I bought a slip to wear underneath as it’s quite see through.

Beautiful light and swishy dress in a gorgeous colour. Absolutely stunning and it feels si special to wear it.

Palace Perfection

Wore this dress for the first time at Diocletian’s Palace in Split, Croatia & it just felt special 😊 The style is versatile & comfy enough to go from sight seeing to a fancy restaurant!

I returned this dress. The skirt felt too full and unflattering.

Beautiful

Love the color and love the quality of this company. Fits great and I feel nice wearing it.

Feedback

I haven’t worn it yet. I’m looking forward to wearing it on my daughter’s birthday which is next month. I own several dresses so I added it to my collection. It is a great addition to my dresses. I like how the dress is very lightweight and I will style it with boots and a waistcoat. Looking forward to shopping again in the future!Thank you

Beautiful dress with a nice drape. The smell of the packaging was a little strong,but hanging in the closet a couple of days took care of it.

Beautiful Lovely Dress

The workmanship is excellent and the fabrics are colorful and cool!
