A Designer Clothing Store in the Dallas Design District
The Dallas Design District isn't where you go for the same dress everyone else has. It's where the galleries, the design studios and the independent makers are — and it's where Sai Sankoh keeps her showroom. If you want a designer clothing store in the Design District with a real point of view, start here.
This is the home of an award-winning label: D Magazine named Sai Sankoh Best Resortwear in 2024, and she won the 2022 FGI Dallas Rising Star Award. The pieces worn by Beyoncé and by Jodie Turner-Smith in Netflix's Murder Mystery 2 are designed here.

Why the Design District suits this brand
Every Sai Sankoh print starts as original artwork, so the work belongs in a neighborhood built around art and design rather than a mall full of the same labels. Come for the clothes and you can make a day of it — a gallery walk, a long lunch, and a private appointment in the showroom.
What a designer store gives you that a chain can't
Originality, for one. You're not choosing from patterns sold in a hundred other stores — you're choosing artwork made in-house, on fine silks sourced from India. And service: by appointment, you get the room to yourself and help building complete looks, not a rushed grab between sale racks. You leave with a piece you'll remember wearing, and an answer when someone asks where it's from.

Where to eat and stay in the Design District
The Design District is a destination, not just a stop — so make a day of it: a gallery walk, a long lunch, and your appointment. Town Hearth, Nick Badovinus's chandelier-filled steakhouse, has anchored the neighborhood since 2017; Carbone brought its New York Italian (and the candlelit wine room, Vino) just across a courtyard; and The Mexican rounds out the district's best tables. Staying over? Virgin Hotels Dallas sits right in the Design District, and the Kengo Kuma–designed Hôtel Swexan is minutes away in Harwood, with its rooftop pool and MICHELIN-recommended Stillwell's.

More than a store
Shopping here isn't a grab between errands — it's an appointment. You get the room to yourself, time to try silhouettes in daylight, and help building complete looks rather than guessing online. That's the difference between buying a dress and leaving with a wardrobe.
It's also a chance to meet the work up close: original prints designed in-house, fine silks you can feel, and the team that knows every piece. Come for one thing and make an afternoon of it — the Design District is built for exactly that.
