Review: eShakti

in Fashion, Outfit Post on 06/10/14

Today, I’m really excited share a review of a really cool online shop, eShakti. They’re an online clothing retailer, offering a wide selection of really cute women’s apparel. What makes them different is that everything they sell is made to order! If you wear a size 0-36, you’d be able to shop the line with ease.

For someone who loves shopping as much as I do, it’s kind of crazy that I’d never bought clothing from an online-only shop before. I know it’s silly, but I’m always afraid that whatever I order wouldn’t fit properly, and that I’d end up stuck with something I can’t wear. This is why I was thrilled to have the opportunity to work with eShakti and give it a try. After all, if I was getting a custom piece, it was bound to fit correctly!

I ended up choosing the Multicolor Floral Print Dress, because I loved the pattern for the summer. Whenever you place an order, you have to include your height, so the garment is at the right length for you. I decided to change the sleeve and neckline of this dress, to make it more “me” than the stock design. If I had known my measurements, I could have entered my bust, waist and hip size. They give you the option to chose from a standard list of sizes as well.

When the dress arrived a couple of weeks later (remember, made to order), I literally ripped open the packaging. It looked exactly as I imagined and I was so excited to try it on. The fit is great! I do wish I had taken the time to figure out my measurements, because it’s a bit low cut in the bust area. Live and learn, right? This just means that I’ll have to figure out what my measurements are before I place any other orders.

All and all, it was a great experience and I’ll be wearing this dress throughout the summer.

    Ahh I feel like everyone’s been ordering from eShakti lately, and with a good reason – that dress is absolutely stunning on you! I love the idea of a dress being made to order. I hate when I order something online and it ends up not fitting well and I have to spend extra time and money returning it. You’ve just convinced me to go check out eShakti :]

    Very cute dress- you are totally rocking this! love the pop of lavender in the necklace!

    I have never tried a site that makes custom pieces. How original is that!? This looks like it was made for you- fits you like a glove.

    It may be a little low cut, but it looks GREAT on you! The top part looks like it fits really well. With the shoes, it’s so adorable. eShakti is my favorite.

    That looks perfect on you! I’m not comfortable with low cut dresses and tops and usually wear a shelf-bra cami under them. You picked a great length! I have never heard of this site, but I give them so many praises for offering such a broad selection of sizing. I’ll have to check them out!

      I usually wear something underneath as well, but it looked funny with this dress. I figured a bold necklace or a scarf would work 🙂
