(Style Diary) Coco & Vera loves Prism Couture


I love the idea of anything custom-made. My mom sews and she made a lot of my clothes when I was little; although I hated most of them, in particular a pair of purple corduroy pants that fastened with velcro {sorry, mom!}, there is something really special about owning something that was made just for you; especially when someone asks where it came from and you get to say, "Oh, it was made for me." But I admit, I didn't think custom-made could extend to shoes... so when I was offered the chance to try Prism Couture's made-to-order service, I jumped at it. I wasn't sure I would really notice a difference when I received my custom ribbon back suede ankle booties; as feet go, mine are on the smallish side of average and finding shoes I don't like is more of a struggle than finding ones that fit! But as soon as I slipped them on, my skepticism vanished. I've been wearing these beauties non-stop since late last week and still, not even a hint of a blister! If you have problems with boot fit, particularly through the calf, or just want something special, I can't recommend Prism Couture enough.

J’adore l’idée de n’importe quoi qui soit fait sur mesure. Ma mère sait coudre et elle m’a fait beaucoup de vêtements lorsque j’étais jeune ; bien que je les détestais presque tous, surtout un pantalon en velours côtelé de couleur violet {désolée, maman !}, c’est sympa, quand on demande d’où vient ta robe, de pouvoir dire que c’était fait pour toi seule. J’avoue, je ne croyais pas que les chaussures fait sur mesure existaient… donc lorsque Prism Couture m’a demandé si j’avais le goût d’essayer leur service chaussures-sur-mesure, j’étais ravie. Franchement, je doutais que j’allais remarquer une grande différence quand j’ai reçu mes bottines en daim noir ; j’ai des pieds petits et pour moi, c’est plus difficile trouver des chaussures que je n’aime pas que des chaussures qui ne sont pas de ma taille ! Mais là, j’ai mis les bottines pour la première fois et leur confort m’a bouleverse ! Je les porte sans cesse depuis la semaine passée, sans la moindre ampoule. Si vous avez de la difficulté à trouver des bottes qui te vont bien, ou si vous désirez tout simplement des chaussures spéciales, je vous conseille fortement d’essayer Prism Couture.

  13. Those shoes are lovely! I had a similar experience with K-Jacques where they measured my foot, let me choose the leather I wanted and delivered the shoes to my NY office from St-Tropez 2 weeks later; great service.

  17. We had no idea that custom-made shoes like these exist! It´s a great idea! What holds me back for on-line shopping shoes is that I never know if they´re gonna fit or not because sizes are very subjective sometimes... this is genious!!

    Thanks for your nice comment! Would you like to follow??

    1. I'm surprised to hear that, Sheryl! I think they do do smaller and larger sizes through their custom ordering service... you should definitely get in touch with them to find out :)
