Styleshake

As I was browsing the BBC website this morning, I came across this article about a site called Styleshake that allows you to design your own dress. This is not a new concept by any means; Steve Madden has allowed you to design your own shoes for a while now. But this site promises to make and deliver your dress within 10 days. First up, you choose your own design or you can browse designs that have been created recently by other people. There are 6 sections of the dress with a range of options for each part. You can choose your fabric too: cotton, silk or metallic silk are available in a range of colours. The site has a size guide so there is the option to either use their measurements or submit your own for no extra cost. And there is a free alterations service once the dress is received should it not fit quite correctly. Prices are £79-£149 and so if you are looking for a tailor made dress without the tailor made price tag, this could be the option for you.
