[Dress gifted to me by eShakti]
When eShakti reached out to me a few months ago and asked me if I'd consider working with them I was skeptical. They claimed to create made to measure garments to fit any woman.. they also claimed to be completely customisable. I was intrigued.
When I looked on their website for the first time I was blown away. Hundreds, and I mean HUNDREDS, of styles of dresses that were all 100% customisable and made to measure. I thought to myself "surely this is too good to be true".
I scrolled for around an hour looking at all of the beautiful dresses. There was just so many that I would quite happily wear.. an array of different colours, cuts, styles, necklines and lengths – almost all of them customisable so you can alter the neckline or sleeve length to suit your style, comfort zone and needs.
I then stumbled across this beautiful dress. Red, navy, pink and black – all colours I adore and wear regularly – in the most amazing bold and striking print. The thing that drew me to this dress most was not only the style, but the print – Orla Kiely-esque and utterly stunning.
I then measured myself and input each of the measurements. I added on an extra half inch to insure that it would fit perfectly.
I chose to have a rounded neckline with short sleeves and a below-the-knee length. I kept the belt and kept the pockets.
This dress was 100% customisable. If I desired a square neck or a V-neck I would have been able to have had it.. I would have also been able to have a mini length, floor length, long sleeves, no sleeves and no pocket. It's so amazing that eShakti offer such a customisable range of garments.
The dress arrived within a two week time frame – beautifully boxed and with a dress maker quality tape measure!
I unwrapped the dress and was stunned. More beautiful than the photos on the website, this dress fulfilled and exceeded my expectations. A silky opulent material that's floaty, a dreamy thick belt, pockets at the perfect height, and not to mention the perfect fit of the dress as a whole.
I've never worn a dress that looks so beautiful on my figure.. perfectly crafted and made to measure.
I decided to team this gorgeous dress with some Clarks ballet pumps that I purchased in the summer sale. They are so comfy, naturally I bought them in two colours, so expect to see them both make multiple appearances on here.
I also added my Karl Lagerfeld signature cross body bag into the mix. A gorgeous electrifying red and stand-out signature – this bag is perfect for making a statement. Definitely a bag for girls who want to be bold with their outfit choices!
I highly recommend eShakti. Not because they kindly gifted me this dress, but because I truly love everything they stand for. Women of all shapes and sizes should be able to look and feel fabulous in whatever they want to wear. eShakti give women a platform to create their dream garments.. from occasion dresses to everyday wear. I am so happy that they got in touch with me because I adore this brand and am so chuffed to have found it 1) for myself and 2) to share it with you guys!

I truly like the dress. It looks very nice. I like how the patterns are and how easy to match it with a cardigan.
