This ensures the artisans are free to manage their own hours without production deadlines, providing flexibility to enjoy life at a slower pace. We support the art of hand block printing and sustainably handmade garments that utilise tradition and ritual through ancient practice. Our aim is to bridge the gap between artisan and consumer, our connection with one another, and the Earth.

Unethical Practices and Inflexible Returns - A Disappointing Experience

Daughters of India claims to be an ethical company, but their treatment of customers suggests otherwise. Their unforgiving return policy can result in a substantial loss of 150-200 euros, leaving customers feeling frustrated and unsupported.
Despite polite responses to negative reviews, the company offers no genuine solutions to customer issues. Their words ring hollow and lack authenticity.
As a customer, I deeply regret my purchase from Daughters of India. It has been the most disappointing shopping experience I have ever had. I strongly advise potential customers to thoroughly research the company's policies before making a decision. Don't let their claims of ethical practices mislead you into a purchase you may regret.

Awfully cheap dresses

Awfully cheap dresses, that aren’t cheap to buy! Can find identical dresses on Temu which makes me think that’s where you’re buying them from & reselling them for extortionate prices. The quality is definitely Temu quality.

Paper thin material

Paper thin material, poorly cut, horrific returns policy. Currently I'm stuck with a voucher for a company I will NEVER buy from again. Daylight robbery. Unless you like your dresses see through, don't waste your money.

Edit: their response is laughable. Refusing to refund people has nothing to do with sustainability.

I bought a dress and it arrived and smelled like gasoline. The fabric was scratchy and rough. I was only refunded shipping costs. They did not refund my full amount. I now have to call my bank. AWFUL experience.

Love their dresses and their ethical standards!

Today I ordered my 6th Daughters of India dress. I love these dresses so much! The traditional hand block printing, the gauzy dreamy fabric, the colors, the design. So beautiful and so comfortable. I also love their mission statement and ethical standards, and how they support the talented women in India. It's been a pleasure, and I will enjoy these dresses for a long time to come. Thank you.
