Celebrating our slow fashion ethos, Nora is an ode to the art of handmade. Beginning with four wood blocks intricately hand-carved to create two traditional floral designs, skilled artisans then use the blocks to slowly and carefully hand print delicate blue hues upon the softest cotton voile. Tiers of printed fabric have then been gracefully layered and finished with mother-of-pearl buttons from bodice to base, forming this free flowing feminine style lovingly hand-crafted by a small group of women in Jaipur, India.

Limited Quantities

Due to this style's production process taking several months to create, each Nora mini dress is completely unique and one-of-a-kind and is only available in extremely limited quantities. Colour variations may occur due to the handmade nature of this garment.

Material

100% Cotton. This style features an underlining, covering the bodice to the base of the last tier on the mini length skirt.

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% Cotton Voile

Soft and airy, very light weight with a gentle, flowing feel. Semi-sheer with a fine, soft hand feel.

HAND BLOCK PRINTED IN INDIA

Hand block printing is a traditional artisan technique that uses hand-carved wooden blocks to print fabric by hand. Rooted in Indian craft traditions, the process is slow and highly skilled, beginning with carving rosewood blocks and carefully preparing the fabric.

Eco-friendly dyes are mixed by hand and stamped in precise alignment, often in layers to build the design. The fabric is then washed, dried, and quality-checked, resulting in textiles that celebrate sustainability, human rhythm, and individual artistry.

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.

Reviews

Whimsical & flattering

"I absolutely love this dress. It works well as both an effortless sundress and dressed up for special evenings for events. I have worn this dress for two family photoshoots, and it is so versatile that it fit me perfectly during my third trimester when I was pregnant with my first son and I still love it 1. 5 years postpartum. I loved this dress so much, I purchased it in aquamarine and primrose. It seems like there was a fabric change between aquamarine and primrose, since primrose seems a bit thicker. I preferred the old fabric since it was a tad bit lighter and more flowy than the latter but both dresses are staples in the spring - summer seasons."

— Kenzi H. (5/5)

My favourite dress!

"It goes through all the stages of my life with such grace, pregnancy, nursing, before and after – simply beautiful, flattering, lightweight but also great craftsmanship – this dress withstands countless amount of washing through the years. Love xx"

— Ruslana (5/5)

Nora Redux

"This is my second Nora in mini. I’m kinda petite. . only 4’10” so the mini on me is perfect length. It hits beneath my knees. But more than the length I just love the design and how it has more room for the girls. I may be pint size in height but the girls are not. I have Kyra as well but my heart belongs to Nora!!"

— Arlene S. (5/5)

Pretty Dress

"I love the color and style. Very comfortable to wear. I wish it had pockets (hence the 4 stars)!"

— Safa H. (4/5)

Most Beautiful Dresses

"Love, love, love these dresses! I bought the Kyra and the Nora Mini dresses and the XS fit me perfectly. Thank you sooooooooo much. I am under 5’ and they both come to the middle of my knee. I do have two “suggestions” for future dresses. The Nora I just love because it is lined with a gauzy slip sewn into the skirt but would also love it to have side pocketsWhile the Kyra I love because it has side pockets but it isn’t linedThese are only suggestions because I love them anyway but if future dresses could be lined AND have pockets that would be ideal!"
