House of Sundar Review: My Experience With Their Slow Fashion Dresses

AD| I’d never heard of House of Sundar until they contacted me to work together. House of Sundar is a clothing brand that celebrates the art of slow fashion. It was founded to revive a struggling factory in Jaipur, India, to provide stable employment for fifteen women and five men. These skilled artisans were quickly being replaced by fast fashion. Instead, House of Sundar prioritises quality over quantity – releasing just one clothing item at a time, all handmade with 100% organic cotton.

What Makes House of Sundar Clothing Different?

If you’re searching for House of Sundar, you’re probably looking for sustainable, ethically made clothing that’s a bit different from the usual high street stuff. Here’s what you need to know:

House of Sundar dresses are handcrafted in Jaipur by skilled artisans who actually get fair wages and stable employment. Each piece is made from 100% organic cotton with bold, vibrant prints that you won’t find anywhere else. They release one item at a time rather than flooding the market with hundreds of designs – that’s proper slow fashion.

The brand also partners with Kamlabia Charitable Trust to support underprivileged children in Jaipur, so buying from House of Sundar means you’re contributing to something bigger than just your wardrobe.

House of Sundar sent me their three bestsellers. I wasn’t sure how they would look on me, as it’s not a style of dress I’d usually go for. The prints are stunning, bold, and they even have pockets.

The Tara Midi Dress Red Tigeress is handcrafted with 100% cotton. The print is stunning and so vibrant! I’d say the fit is quite big – I got a medium, and there’s still plenty of space in it. I added a belt to cinch it in at the waist.

It’s lightweight, breathable and of great quality. I love how bold the dresses are, it’s such a flattering style. If you’re looking for a statement House of Sundar dress, this is the one. The Tiger Print stands out, the quality is excellent, and it’s the kind of piece you’ll keep for years.

The other two dresses are the Maya Midi Dress Blue Iris, and Maya Midi Dress Saffron Sun. They are the same cut as the dress above. They are great for both occasional wear and casual outfits. I’m actually going to wear these two during autumn and winter – they’ll be so cosy!

So if you’re looking for statement, quality pieces that will last you a long time, House of Sundar is worth a look.
