A timeless staple designed for effortless, everyday wear. Crafted from luxuriously soft double gauze cotton, the Nadi Dress is the piece you’ll reach for again and again, from relaxed mornings at home to days by the sea or catch-ups with friends.

This reversible beauty gives you two looks in one. Wear the wooden buttons at the front for a classic finish or at the back for a modern twist. The Nadi dress is maternity and breastfeeding friendly. Thoughtful hand-stitched details around the neckline and arms add a touch of artisan charm, while hidden pockets make it as practical as it is beautiful.

Product Details
  • Fabric: 100% Organic Double Gauze Cotton, lightweight and breathable
  • Reversible: Buttons can be worn at the front or back
  • Neckline: Hand-stitched detailing around neckline and arms
  • Buttons: Sweet wooden button closures
  • Pockets: Convenient hidden side pockets
Garment Care

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.

100% Organic Double Gauze Cotton

Soft and breathable with a gently textured finish. Lightweight with a relaxed, airy drape. Naturally comfortable against the skin and ideal for all-day wear.

HAND-DYED IN INDIA

Our fabrics are dyed by hand in small batches using azo-free dyes, allowing colour to develop slowly and evenly. Deeper shades may pass through multiple dye baths, while lighter tones are carefully controlled to maintain softness and consistency.

Each fabric is then washed and softened, letting the colour settle naturally while preserving lightness, movement, and feel.

Empowering women

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


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.
 
We have committed to a monthly donation of $5,000 to support their impactful work.

Saheli Women

We’re working with Saheli women to launch Saheli Kapas, a Cotton Project, to support and empower female farmers at the root of the supply chain. Saheli Women believe true fashion starts with the Earth and the women who nurture and farm it.


The pilot begins with five women and their farms, providing them with training, direct income, and ongoing support. By offering access to quality seeds and low-water sustainable practices, we aim to uplift communities while honouring Mother Earth.

Reviews

Out of the last seven

"Out of the last seven days I have worn this dress four times! I wish it wasn’t worth the money, but it IS. Perfectly proportioned, gorgeous color, fantastic material. You need it!"

— Jessica G. (5/5)

marvelous

"arrived so nicely wraped - color confort size = everything just perfect"

— Marie M. (5/5)

Perfect

"I'm 163cm with a 90cm bust, purchased size small which fits well. Comes to a maxi length on me with plenty of room in the bust. There's a chance an xs could have fit but may have been too fitted for the style. The colour is pretty different from the picture. Much more of a dusty mauve so if you have golden or neutral skin tone this colour will work on you. I love the comfort and shape and of course the pockets. Fabric is perfect for hot weather and not see through. Easy to wash and fast drying. Perfect"

— Lisa (5/5)

Nadi Mauve
