SEW STYLISH

JULY 29TH, 2008SEW STYLISHOur sewing skills may be shaky, but that doesn't mean we can't create couture in a stitch. StyleShake, a London-based on-line atelier of sorts, lets any gal design a garment with the click of her finger. You choose fabrics, cuts and chic details, including belts, bows and box pleats, according to your creative whims and precise measurements. From there, expert seamstresses sew your bespoke creation and ship it straight to you. Prices start at $100 for tops and skirts and $170 for dresses, so you won't have to shake too many pennies from your pockets for a one-of-a-kind design. Got something to add to this dose? Post it on our forum! We'll be giving prizes to our best forum posts every month, so just log-in to win!
