I was recently contacted by eShakti.com to do a product review of one of their items. eShakti.com offers a wide range of women’s apparel and has sizes ranging from 0 – 26W. Their distinguishing factor is that they allow your clothes to be custom made, tailoring each item to your specifically desired cut and measurement. They are extremely petite friendly and make clothes that fit a height of down to 4’6″. You can customize everything in regards to each article of clothing — bra size, inseam, shoulder width, waist, hips, etc. And it doesn’t just stop there. You can even customize the neckline, sleeves, and length!
I’ve saved the best part for last. Customization only costs $7.50. That’s right, custom clothing without the high cost!
So here is the dress I ordered in its original shape:
You will notice that the dress was originally sleeveless and I chose to modify mine to have short sleeves instead. When customizing these options, they even provide you with helpful sample images:
Custom sleeves:
Custom neckline:
Complete customization options:
Overall, I am highly impressed with their clothing and highly recommend this retailer! For my petite friends out there, I am sure that you will be able to find something to suit your style and in your size!
eShakti.com in a nutshell:
Pros:
- Excellent quality clothing (my mom was even impressed!)
- Custom sizing (down to height of 4’6″!)
- Never stocked out. Every product in every size is always available.
- Top-notch customer service! I emailed them four times and always received responses within the same day.
- Great return policy. Full refund within 30 days. Store credit within 60 days.
Cons:
- Website can be a bit slow at times
- Standard shipping takes ~2 weeks (shipping from India)
Below is a video review of the item I received from eShakti.com:

I've never heard of eShakti before and it seems like a cool concept. I checked out the clothes and they seem to be resonably priced! That's great. It seems like a good value especially if you need custom fitting clothes. That strapless dress is so cute, along with the one you chose. Thanks for the great review!
thanks! i was pretty impressed by their items!
What a pretty dress!

I love your choice! It is soo adorable on you!!!
I find this to be very informative Kileen. Great post.
Why do you always look so glam? : ) I love the ruffle dress on you and the tights are adorable!
Thank you for the informative review!

@AubreyOhDang! yay, so glad!! thank you!
@The Little Dust Princess haha, i was actually a little too glam in this outfit for dinner at my parents' house. they were all like, "are you going to a party afterwards?" lol. 🙂 but thank you!
Great and thorough review! The dress you picked looks so nice on you 🙂
That's awesome that you were able to find a great dress and customize it to your specifications.
I can tell that the shoulders are too wide, but I guess that just comes with the default sizing mentioned in your video. It's a great review. I wish they would offer customizable styles too…it seems like there's too many ruffles on the dress that can be a bit overwhelming for a petite…but that's personal preference.
I'm glad you reviewed this site and I'll have to check it out! =)
I love that dress, it looks amazing on you! And those tights are the cutest thing ever!

The dress looks cute on you…I'm still waiting for my product to come in the mail from them to review 🙂 Hopefully mine will look just as nice!
Very cute dress and I actually like the sleeves better that you created!

what a gorgeous dress! i love the ruffled design.
also, did i read correctly? customizations for only $7.50?! How did you find out about eShakti? sounds like the perfect place to get customized clothes without the expensive price tag!
@thedemuremuse.com I was contacted by the head of marketing for eShakti.com asking if I'd be interested in trying out their products. It was an opportunity I couldn't pass up! You can't beat customizations for $7.50!
I love the ruffles, they are SO pretty and you know I am a sucker for pink. Please don't tempt me anymore! 🙂 It truly looks adorable on you though…
That dress is super cute and I also like the strapless one you posted too!
I was trying to find your mustard yellow post and kept searching for "yellow" but nothing came up – finally I realized you called it "marigold"! Anyhoo, I was inspired by you and PAG and linked you both to my newest post. 🙂
@Elle thanks! i took a cue from your posts and paired my dress with a blazer like you do! 🙂
@SewPetiteGal oh, haha, sorry. yeah, it was marigold on the website that i referenced, so i kept it. but the cardigan is really a mustard yellow, imo. 🙂 and can't wait to check out your post!
Um, this dress and those accessories are just to die for! Love it!
LOVE the color of your dress! And the way you paired it. Very chic!
Your cats are too cute! 🙂
Thanks so much for the review…I have never heard of that website!
The dress looks great on you! Gorgeous pale pink!
The dress looks great on you, Kileen.

kileen, this is one of my favorites from you, absolutely fantastic! i love how you paired the pink with black and silver. those heels are also to die for!! i may have to bite off of you 😛
first of all, you look absolutely stunning in your photos. i love the way you styled the dress, and then when you take off the jacket it's like a completely different outfit and it's gorgeous!
the way you customized the dress is brilliant. i love how you added the sleeves to it. makes it much more wearable in a lot of different situations. it looks amazing on you.

I LOVE This dress on you, especially with the jacket. So pretty. I will be doing a review for them as well, I have been really busy and the weather has been sub-optimal last weekend, so I really need to get my acts together and take some pictures. Your review is so thorough, it's hard to match. 🙂
Ooooh la la! This outfit is sooo perfect for the holidays! The pink dress is so adorable! You look so cute!
