Light on the body and effortless to wear, the strap dress in the I was a Sari collection is designed around simplicity and ease. This midi slip dress features delicate lace detailing and adjustable straps, creating a silhouette that feels relaxed yet intentionally feminine. Made from upcycled sari fabrics, each dress moves softly with the body, combining comfort, breathability, and a naturally expressive look.
A strap dress is a sleeveless slip-style dress defined by thin, adjustable shoulder straps and a fluid, straight silhouette. Often associated with ease and versatility, this style is designed to skim the body rather than shape it. In the I was a Sari interpretation, the strap dress becomes a one-of-a-kind garment through the use of repurposed sari textiles and subtle lace accents.
Rather than following a rigid structure, the strap dress is designed to adapt to the wearer. Adjustable straps allow the length and neckline to be customised, while the midi cut creates a balanced, elongated line. The fabric falls softly without clinging, offering comfort throughout the day and making the fit suitable for different body shapes and styling preferences.
Each strap dress begins with a sari that already has a history. These pre-loved fabrics are carefully transformed by women artisans in Mumbai, extending their life and reducing textile waste. Produced in limited quantities, every dress reflects an ethical approach to fashion that values craftsmanship, reuse, and mindful production.
Designed with versatility in mind, the strap dress works effortlessly across seasons and occasions. Worn on its own in warmer weather or layered over a T-shirt, under knitwear, or with a light jacket, it adapts easily to different looks. The combination of a relaxed fit and lace detail makes it suitable for everyday wear, travel, and casual evenings.
Because each piece is made from a different sari, no two strap dresses are ever identical. Variations in colour, print, and texture are part of the design, reflecting a circular philosophy that celebrates individuality and thoughtful reuse. The result is a dress that feels personal, easy to wear, and made to last beyond seasons

Between two sizes? Go by your chest measurement first for tops, or hips for bottoms, see the notes below.
Use a soft tape, wear light clothing, and keep the tape level all the way around.
Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest, level across the back. Keep it snug, not tight, and read the measurement where the tape meets.
Find your natural waistline, usually the narrowest point of your torso. Don't hold your stomach in, keep the tape level and comfortably snug.
Stand with feet together and wrap the tape around the fullest part of your hips and seat, straight and level front to back.
