eShakti: Fashionable Clothes Made to Your Size & Style!

Posted on September 17, 2014 | Filed Under: Reviews | Tags: custom-made clothes, eShakti, online clothing retailer | 12 Comments

As a petite woman, it’s challenging to find dresses that fit me just right, in a style that I love. Often times I’ll see a style but wish I could make it shorter in length or adjust the sleeves. Personally I don’t like the way cap sleeves look on me & would prefer either a sleeveless or a slightly longer sleeve. As someone who is 4’ 11″, dresses that are supposed to hit me at the knee are often longer. So it’s either look for a mini skirt length that looks appropriate on me or get the dress altered. Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to find an online store that offers fashionable clothes made to your size & style at an affordable price?

Well folks, get ready to learn about eShakti, the online retailer that offers real fashion for real people! They will custom-make clothes to your size & style. All you have to do is pick out the design, add your body measurements to the order, then choose your sleeve type & dress length. The process is simple!

I had a hard time deciding which dress to choose since there were so many cute designs. I finally made my decision & picked this embellished dip neck poplin dress in an eggplant color. This is what it originally looked like online.

However instead of a cap sleeve, I opted for the short sleeve. I also chose the above the knee length, as opposed to the original below the knee version. Here’s how it ended up looking…

This is now my new favorite dress! I like that the flared skirt & navy bands at the waist give me the illusion of an hour glass figure. Did I mention that it has side-seam pockets? Love, love!! Also the scoop neck navy blue detailing is a nice touch as well.

      Yes, I love the pockets. One of my fave things about the dress! I always see celebrities on the red carpet that have dresses with pockets but hadn’t seen it in the stores that I shop in. Maybe it’s just me? I’ve been wanting a dress style like this one so I’m thrilled with how it turned out. 😀

    What a pretty dress!! I had no recollection of you being under 5 feet when I met you, you carry it well! I feel short at 5’3, & as I am getting older, I notice there’s less room for any weight gain LOL =P I am heading to eShakti now 🙂

      Maybe I was wearing my wedges when I met you Mary?! That would still make me a little under 5’3″ though, lol! 😀

      eShakti has a lot of flattering styles that are on-trend for the season. I’m sure you’ll find something that you’ll love!
