Quick Answer

Sai Sankoh is a Dallas luxury resortwear boutique in the Design District — a three-story flagship named Best Resortwear by D Magazine in 2024, with original in-house prints and one-size goddess kaftans.

Dallas knows how to dress up. Here is how to walk in as the woman everyone notices for a luxury resortwear boutique in Dallas, in a piece designed to be remembered — bold print, striking color, made in Dallas and available in sizes 0 through 24.

Some women dress to fit in. Ours dress to be remembered. Sai Sankoh is a Dallas luxury resortwear boutique built for her — the woman who wants to be stopped by a stranger and asked where her outfit came from. Bold original prints. Flowing kaftans. Dresses made for the entrance, not the corner of the room.

In 2024, D Magazine named Sai Sankoh Best Resortwear in its Best of Big D awards — recognition from the publication that knows Dallas style best, calling the brand "the resortwear goddess." Our work has also appeared in Essence and the Dallas Observer, and the designs have been worn by Beyoncé, Lupita Nyong'o, Gabrielle Union and Jodie Turner-Smith.

The Eloise

The Eloise Goddess Kaftan is one of the two pieces D Magazine spotlighted when they named Sai Sankoh Best Resortwear — a bold, draped silk kaftan made for an entrance.

From the Feature

Two Pieces D Magazine Put a Spotlight On

When D Magazine named us Best Resortwear, they pointed to two pieces in particular. The Eloise Goddess Kaftan: a bold, draped silk kaftan made for a resort dinner, a birthday entrance, or a destination wedding. And the handmade Esther bag: a finishing piece that turns an outfit into a look.

As seen on screen: the Iva Goddess Kaftan is the piece Jodie Turner-Smith wore as Countess Sekou in Murder Mystery 2. The same drama, drape and presence — yours to wear.

A Three-Story Flagship, Not a Shop
Inside the Store

A Three-Story Flagship, Not a Shop

When Sai Sankoh opened her first storefront in the Dallas Design District in 2023, D Magazine called it more than a store. It runs three floors: a vivid first-floor showroom, a calmer second-floor VIP space, and a rooftop lounge called Rouge, open to the public. The blue-and-green color scheme is a tribute to the Sierra Leone flag, where the designer is from.

"I wanted a place that my customers could feel at home," she told D Magazine — "like a girl cave." Walk in for one dress; leave with a wardrobe for the trip.

Shop it: Statement Dresses

Our pick: The Lisandra Custom Gown.

The Visit

What an Appointment Feels Like

A visit here isn't a quick errand. Book an appointment and you get the room, a glass of champagne, and time to try things properly. Tell us the occasion, whether it's a cruise, a milestone birthday, a wedding or a sorority event, and we'll pull a full look rather than hand you one dress.

The store also hosts events worth coming back for — Caviar & Kaftan evenings, Divine Nine gatherings, and private shopping nights.

Shop it: Resort Sets & Jumpsuits

Our pick: The Sandra Box Kaftan.

“Walk in for one dress; leave with a wardrobe for the trip.”

What You'll Find at Sai Sankoh Dallas

Every print begins as original artwork drawn in-house, so you won't see it on a rack anywhere else.

Goddess kaftans — our signature. One size, dramatic drape, built for resort dinners and unforgettable entrances.
Statement dresses — for birthdays, weddings, galas and the photos you'll keep.
Shirt dresses — the hardest-working piece in a travel wardrobe, day to dinner.
Resort sets and jumpsuits — pieces that pack light and restyle all week.
Wide-leg pants and tops — mix-and-match ease with real impact.
Silk scarves — the easy way to finish any look.

Made for the Way Dallas Women Actually Live

Dallas keeps a full calendar — brunches, galas, weddings, birthday dinners, rooftop evenings, and the vacation you plan all year for. A Sai Sankoh piece earns its place because it moves between those rooms. The kaftan you wear poolside in Cabo works again at a Dallas dinner with a heel and a bolder earring.
Sizing runs inclusive across the collection, and the goddess silhouettes are one size by design — cut to flatter a wide range of bodies without the fuss of fit.

The Goddess of Resort Wear

It isn't a line we wrote — it's one the press keeps repeating. D Magazine named the brand Best Resortwear by D Magazine in 2024 and called Sai "the resortwear goddess." NBC's Texas Today introduced her on air as "the Goddess of Resort Wear." The recognition is on screens and red carpets, too: worn by Beyoncé, Lupita Nyong'o, Gabrielle Union and supermodel Iman.

“I got stopped by at least 20 people commenting how stunning the outfit was. It was a show stopper for sure. I felt like all eyes were on me.”
