eShakti has experienced a significant decline in customer satisfaction, transitioning from a previously well-regarded retailer known for quality custom clothing to one facing widespread complaints about unfulfilled orders and poor customer service. Customers frequently report long delays in shipping, lack of communication, and difficulties obtaining refunds for canceled items. While many long-time patrons express nostalgia for the company's earlier reliability and product quality, current sentiments indicate a growing frustration with the company's operational issues and perceived lack of accountability. Overall, the feedback suggests a critical need for eShakti to improve its customer service and fulfill its commitments to regain consumer trust.

I noticed that eShakti does not allow customers to review their Facebook page - Customers, BEWARE OF THIS PRACTICE. As a social media manager, I can tell you it is a very clear sign the company would have many negative reviews. Including one from me. Here is my eShakti experience. I will be screen capturing this post as well, as I suspect the company also practices removing negative comments (another thing you should beware of before buying)...
I made my first purchase with eShakti about a month ago. I paid the extra fee to have the dress made to my specific height at the "above the knee" length.To ensure it was indeed correct, I even subtracted an inch from my overall height. As you can see in the photo, the garment was not only made incorrectly, but incredibly wrinkled from poor packaging.
I then sent an email to their customer service department explaining that I would like a FULL refund, as their refund page on the website said that the customizing fee will not be refunded. Despite doing my due diligence, I was sent back an automatic reply directing me to that same webpage.
I waited multiple days for an email response from an actual eShakti representative and never received one. So, I called their customer service number and spoke with "Dominique." She assured me I would "hear back from Amy by Dec. 8." That day obviously came and went with no reply. I then called again on Dec. 12. The representative was valley girl snotty, and never even provided her name. It said the call was recorded, and I hope it was because she needs to be fired! I was told by her that "Dominique should've never said when I would hear back from Amy. But she then went on to explain, I should hear back from Amy in the next 24 hours." Shocker, I never did.
I was also told to return the dress and that they have a note in the system that I would receive a full refund. I of course do not have this in writing - as I am still waiting on that glorious email from this "Amy" person. So, I am returning the dress, and let me be clear - I AM getting a full refund.
Great service eShakti. You're literally one of the worst customer service experiences I've had. BUYER BEWARD. In fact, do yourself a favor... DON'T BUY!
So far I love every dress I have order especially the length. The material is excellent and the price is great.
I have been buying eshakti for over 4 years now. I love the quality and the price. You cannot beat it especially when you can have a custom dress made for your body type. When I had a problem with my dress, customer service was outstanding.
One thing that many customers must realize, is that they also have pre made sizes that may not fit your arms if they are thicker. If that is the case, you can always notify eshakti and see if they can make a change:-)
I had ordered 3 dresses of which i got 2 because 1 was out of stock, but i love both my dresses and I always get compliments for my dress. Have ordered another half a dozen dresses. Cant wait to get them...
First and last time buyer, custom dress, way too tight in arms and way too big in bottom. Let's hope I get some money back.
I received my order on September 26th, and unfortunately it was really unflattering. I printed the return shipping label provided by eshakti, and mailed my return on October 14th. I never heard anything until December 8th (nearly 2 months later!) that I was being given a gift card, not a refund. Upon inquiring about this, I was told they received the return on November 4th, though the tracking number shows October 31st (so November 4th was a lie). The return policy is a scam, beware! It states that returns made within 30 days will be refunded. I am now being told the item has to be in their hands within 30 days. NO WHERE does it specifically state this in their policy, and furthermore, they provided the shipping label which then took two weeks to reach them - completely beyond my control. I made the return within two weeks of receiving, and they are not honouring their own policy. I have never encountered this in all my experience online shopping - this is a scam.
I am very disappointed - I was looking forward to trying more products, and had even recommended trying this to friends and family, but I will definitely make sure they all know how terrible this experience (over 2 months to process return! False advertising in their policies). Not worth the hassle.
This may be corny but... Call me Bleu Cheese cause I be "dressing" with Eshakti. I have about 13 dresses from Eshakti. I have been pleased with each and every purchase. I always get comments on my dresses and ALL of my dresses have pockets!
I have purchased 5 dresses from eshakti.com and the first one I had custom made as I have very broad shoulders and things that are not knit, don't fit well. The fit was perfect and the quality was great! The other 4 I ordered a traditional size and couldn't be more pleased! I always get compliments when I wear any of the dresses and I can buy exactly what I want right down to the neckline and sleeve length! I can't wait to buy more!
The dresses I've gotten have all been wonderful and they are designed with pockets! I love being able to customize so easily and I've always been impressed with the quality as well as the costumer service.
Beautiful, comfortable and well made.
Being able to change the length or neckline etc. is awesome,
I will definitely order again and highly recommend.
So glad I tried this site, I've never been disappointed and get compliments and am asked where I got my outfit.
I have more than a dozen eShakti dresses; I wear them all the time, and get compliments every single time I do. Getting to pick the neckline, hemline, and sleeves is AMAZING and allows every woman to design the dress for herself, her body, and her tastes. Plus, they come in a HUGE range of sizes from 00 to 6x and EVERY dress in every size? Magic! It takes a month to get your dress because it was not MADE until you ordered it! Plus, pockets. POCKETS!
I've had no quality problems, never sent anything back, and my friends have all been happy with their purchases, too. I'm a believer in this company! LOVE THEM!
Plus, if you don't like it... a return label COMES with the dress to make it easy and hassle free to send it back. Never used it, but it's nice to know its there.
I appreciate the value and 'customizable' features of the dress products relative to the price. Your delivery estimate was exact to the day and well packaged. Thanks so much!
Have had nothing but problems with my last few orders with this company. First time, they took over a month to deliver my order when their website promises you the dress will be delivered in 10 days. Call the customer service and their indifference is so appalling! No apologies were offered... instead all I got was an indifferent attitude from the rep.
The second time around, I tried their much advertised and bragged upon, only-Store-to-offer-fabric-customization feature. First of all they didnt have the pairing they had sent I their ad mail, when I sent an email to the customer service team, they replied back saying the pairing was now available to order and I did. A week later I get an email saying my order is canceled due to fabric unavailability! WTHECK? Why advertise on a feature that you guys are clearly not well equipped to handle and waste customers time? Shame on you eshakti for false advertising and misleading customers
Love Eshakti! Beautiful clothes that fit well, at an amazingly affordable price. Quick turnaround, great options and POCKETS! ALWAYS POCKETS!
My dress came in early, correct sizing, super flattering, and just what I wanted! I can't wait to order my next item!
EShakti is literally the best! I got my dress way before I anticipated and it is such beautiful quality. The fabric is the best and the sewing is excellent. Tailored for me.
I was looking for a formal gown for a Holiday Party. I found a dress that was beautiful on the website and I was falling between 3 different dress sizes - so I ordered using custom measurements. The dress arrived and I'm so excited for the party. The dress is BEAUTIFUL and it was under $50! So impressed!
Eshakti always got me cover form head to toe and I look fabulous where every I go people always ask where I go where did you get that dress... I smile and say Eshakti
I ordered some dresses and they were pretty poorly designed, and awkwardly cut and stitched. They look like somebody's first arts & crafts project. It's not an easy return and I'm just going to donate them, but they're not something I would wear in public.
Answer: Delight, Please order based on the eShakti sizing/measurement information. The measurements are in inches, and are body measurements. Do not go by other brand size charts. Thank you.
Answer: Sorry, Debapriya, we have stopped our India operations and there are no plans to resume the services any time soon. We will let you know if we do resume our operations in the future!
Answer: I have been ordering the standard sizes and they are true to the measurements posted. No matter what you put in your height, so the length is always spot on.
Answer: Purchase a dress that is made with the knit fabric. It is flexible and much more loose feeling than the other fabrics. If you do decide to add inches to the measurement, I recommend only adding 1-2 inches AND only add those inches where you like it loser. For example, measure your arms true to size unless you like it a bit lose. Measure your waist true to size unless that is where you like it a bit lose. But honestly, I think you will find the knit dresses to be the best if you dislike tight fitting clothing! I also am not a fan and those are the dresses I wear most often! I have bought other styles, so I have other fabrics to compare it to.
Answer: I have been ordering from eShakti for over 12 months ( something like 25 dresses). I have never had a problem. Customer Service has always been great. Quick to respond and very accomodating. Even adding a deisgn I requested to Fabric Customisation. Winning! I have only had to return 1 dress and it was easy and I got a full refund. I am in Sydney, Australia and my orders always arive in 10-14 days without fail. You can track the progress of your order online.
Answer: From my experience, In most cases the products are made in the featured color and fabric. There are some items that are offered in different colors on the site. As for the daughter, I suggest using the measurement chart and submitting it to see if it can be accomplished.
Answer: You can refer to our Brand Size chart here - http://www.eshakti.com/SizeChart.aspx Do note that we offer standard sizes from 0-36W or you can get it made as per your exact size measurements (Custom sizing). Bust). We request you to choose your size & height combination carefully from our size chart to get a perfect fit.
Answer: Yes, it will be delivered within 4 weeks. In fact, delivery timelines are 17 days, but it makes sense given unexpected customs delays we are seeing, to plan for an additional week or two.
Answer: Yolanda, we are working furiously to clear our backlogs. We are still delayed 5-6 days now. Hope this helps you.
Answer: Miranda, we are working furiously to clear our backlogs. We are still delayed 5-6 days now. Hope this helps you.
