Oh wow. I just got this dress from eShakti and I love it! I think it's my new favorite. It feels like it was built for me! And that's because it was! If you need a garment or want to treat yourself, go to their website, choose an item, and then customize it to fit your preferences and needs. Very soon afterwards, you'll get your made-to-order special item! I received my dress in less than a week! As you may know, I care a lot about fabrics, especially natural ones, so when I went online, I narrowed down the dress options by fabrics. I needed a really versatile black dress, so I narrowed down my choices by color next. That left me sixteen choices. After I chose this dress style, I chose my size, told them my height, and then customized it by turning it into an above the knee dress. Voila! It even has pockets and bra strap holders. I'm looking forward to getting a lot of wear out of this puppy!
What does your perfect dress look like?

ReplyDeleteVivienne! hi! what a great idea / solution to everything fashion and such. i happened to see this concept on another blog but misplaced that blog (i do that often) and so now I know exactly were to go to get all the links and blinks and nods! you look dang cute, but more happy actually. i think you like this idea a TON!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely dress and I can see you are going to get lots of wear out of it. It will be a classic. Thanks for the links to the website - this company looks amazing. Although it is outside my budget, I am impressed. Hard to say what my perfect dress would look like - I will have to think about it!!

It looks great! It's tough to find cotton dresses these days, all I see are polyester and viscose!
ReplyDeleteactually I don't have the image of my perfect dress on my mind because I like so many different dresses in my wardrobe. the most important condition is: it has to fit nicely! or at least fit nicely when combined with a waist-belt.
ReplyDeleteyou look great in your new dress btw. I like it when dresses are layered with cardis.
Maiken,

v is looking sexy in her custom made dress! i look forward to seeing all the ways you'll style and wear it. :) the cardigan & boots look fantastic too.
ReplyDeleteI love this outfit. Its simple and pretty. I love that you paired the cognac boots with the dark colors.
ReplyDeleteAwesome. I've never heard of this place before you mentioned them. Looks pretty cool.
ReplyDeleteI've never bought anything from eShakti before, but I've heard good things. I think the dress you found is perfect--you'll be able to wear it so many ways, and in every season.
ReplyDeleteHey I am so glad you said that about natural fabrics, I find that really important too- my body doesn't LIKE synthetic fabrics! Your dress is so so so pretty and looks wonderful on you!x
ReplyDeleteThat dress looks pretty darn cute, and is perfect for you! I didn't order anything from eShakti back when I still lived in the US, but now I still like to look at their website from time to time and find a style that I could bring to my tailor.
ReplyDeleteCute dress. And it fits perfectly. My favorite is a dress I bought from Zara in Germany and it fit like they used my exact measurements. I tell you that is rare for a weird petite like me. Never heard of EShakti, well, until now. I will check them out this weekend.
ReplyDeletePretty awesome you got to make a dress! And i love how you mixed black & brown. I'm honestly not sure what my perfect dress looks like because...i change my mind a lot and love variety. :D So maybe my perfect dress is like 10 dresses lol.
ReplyDeleteThey have fabulous dresses! Yours looks great on you Vivienne :)

I've been so curious about that company. It looks like you found a great piece! I love the little stripey cardi you paired it with too!!! ~Sarah
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, you look so cute! This look is darling. The dress is so versatile and sophisticated. And the striped cardigan is such a sweet, preppy touch.
ReplyDeleteMay the force be with you.
