I agree. All of my Boden dresses are 100% cotton.

I'm seeing a bunch, but it turns out that most of the patterns I like are viscose.

I happened on this one which I really like -- looks like even the patterned ones are 100% cotton:

I have this style in several patterns. I really like it!

Obsessed! As an Indian, I love that this is Indian-owned rather than daughters of India type stuff, which feels so junky.

So many beautiful ones! I'm the OP and I'm loving this thread! I've gone from thinking I wanted to add one or two special dresses to my summer wardrobe (I'm normally more of a lightweight pants person) to aspiring to wear long flowy cotton dresses every day. Thank you for all the suggestions!!

Some of These are pretty but I don’t understand how in this day and age, you can have all white models and not call out in some way block prints origins in Asia— this particular type is originally from India and it is just a huge part of artists livelihood / culture. It is not mandatory but it’s so nice when brands here call out the people who design the fabric.

I'm the Karma East person and these really are stunning. Not stupidly expensive, either.

I also wear D&D nighties as dresses. There are linen and cotton options. All very comfy.

This is genius and they are beautiful! How is the sizing? I already have my eye on 3 of them!!

Also Oliphant, Ro’s Garden, Belle and Bella Tu. You can often find some of these on Tuckernuck or Halsbrook.

PP here. I have three different styles and here are my sizing thoughts on each:

- The square nightie (I have the black one ) - runs large but I think that's the point. I'm 5'3" 135 and got a M. It fights how I like but I have the straps adjusted to shorten a fair bit because I'm not very big up top. It's so flowy and comfy but the low back makes it still a little sexy. There's no wearing a bra with this one. I could have gotten an S probably but I kind of love the low back + potato sack comfort lol.

- The slip nightie (I have the persehphone) - fits truer to size. I got a M and love how it fits. It's a tiny bit snug in the but/hips and a liiitle big in the chest bit that's how things tend to go with my proportions. The v is deep enough to be a a little flirty but again, that depends on your measurements. I love the slits in this one - it looks so chic with tall boots. Very easy to dress up or down with shoes and jewelry. It's a great general vacation dress. Still cotton so it isn't super formal of course.

- Kaftan (I just recently got the palm stripe) - Also have the M but if I get another of this style I might try the S just to see how it fits. Runs larger than the slip nightie but not as large as the square nightie. I've only worn it once so have fewer opinions. Very comfy though and I plan to wear it as a pool/beach to dinner transition outfit this summer.

PP here, thank you! We are the same size/have the same measurements so I am super lucky. Thank you so much for coming back and responding!!
