There is a reason why I do not usually post fashion photos on my website…I’m not comfortable in front of the camera. I’ll participate in family photos or photos during outings and trips. But usually I am the one behind the camera!
When eShakti asked me to try out their custom women’s clothing, I threw my problems of being in front of the camera out the window. I think most women will admit that finding clothes that fit your preference and body can be difficult, so I was excited to try out some custom clothing!
eShakti has a wide range of clothing options in a variety of styles and fabric choices. When I found the perfect dress, I was able to add my body measurements (which I elected not to do) and change the neckline, sleeves and length of the skirt. I choose my dress to have a higher neckline, to be sleeveless and to have the skirt reach just below my knees after giving eShakti my height.
My dress shipped within 8 calendar days and arrived at my door in another 4 days. So in 12 days I received a custom made dress = awesome!
As soon as I received the package, I tore it open so that I could try on my new dress.
Pros
- I was able to customize the length of the skirt, the neckline and the sleeves.
- The dress has pockets!
- The straps have bra strap snaps in them – to keep your bra straps from showing.
- The ordering and delivery process was simple and easy
Con
I only found one con and that is the zipper is a little difficult to slide up and down. It has to do the the bulk of the material along the empire waist.
In Conclusion
I am very happy with eShakti’s dress and I am in love with being able to customize their clothing. I see myself wearing this dress often and look forward to purchasing additional fall to winter pieces.

eShakti is great to work with and you are right, they are SO fast! I love this simple yet beautiful polka dot dress. That color will work with a lot of accessories and occasions, too!

Thank you Natalie, you are so sweet! I hope you get yours soon and that you enjoy your dress too!
You look gorgeous!! That’s a beautiful dress, and the fact that it has pockets makes it that much more awesome. *-* I need a dress with pockets, haha.
I love dresses with pockets! It is so convenient.
Oooo! I love the idea of a custom made dress! The bra straps snaps are such good idea! I hate having to worry about my straps all the time. The dress looks great on you! 🙂 Thanks for the review

Thank you Nancy! Oh no, I am sorry about your dress.
I’ve heard of eShakti, and have only heard great things about it. I really want to give it a try. I love that you can customize everything, especially because I’m short, and so many things are too long on me. That dress looks great on you!
Thank you Tiffany! I really enjoyed my experience with eShakti! I encourage you to give them a try 🙂
Adorable. I love a dress with pockets!
Your dress is so pretty! You look gorgeous in it. I would definitely purchase one.
Thank you so much Katherine
You look great and that dress is beautiful on you. I love a dress that has pockets 🙂 Stopping by from #ProductReview Linkup.
Have a great weekend.
Thank you Vashti! Pockets are essential!
Now that sounds cool – customizing a nice DRESS! Makes it feel like you have your own personal tailor. #productreviewparty
Yes, it was so nice 🙂
It’s nice to know that there are places that allow some customizations to fit those with their own body issues or to make something more modest than might be normally. I can’t wait to check this site out.
Yes, Sandy! I loved all the different options that were available!
How cute are you! I know what you mean about not feeling comfortable in front of the camera, but really, you look great! #productreviewparty
Thank you Stacie!
You look absolutely sensational.
