Clothes made to your measurements

On another thread I think someone mentioned a shop which made things to fit you. I am an odd shape, am not a fan of sewing (though can do it if I must) and wondered where I saw this info.
Any ideas?
Thank you.

I think Gagajo mentioned a site where they supply clothes in all different sizes, where you pick and choose the size you want for different bits. Is that the one you mean?

At least this will bump the thread ??

I'm here!

eShakti. I've bought from them before. You can alter the neckline, sleeve length and garment length. And yes, you can put your measurements in and they'll make them to fit.

Last time, I bought 4 dresses and loved 2.

You have to be VERY sensible about what you buy. Pick styles you know will suit you. When I do that, they're great. Anytime I've experimented, I haven't liked the clothes.

As soon as I have a stable income again, I'm putting another order in.

Hello NotSpaghetti see if you can find a local dressmaker or someone that does alterations. I am 5ft tall so everything I buy has to be altered to fit me properly. Hope you find this helpful.
