Very fun super unique dress. I got many compliments because of it. So a couple things to keep in mind. The collar is more of a tie, if you don't like things on your neck. You'll have to discard an intricate part of the top of the dress. The fabric is not as soft as I'd hoped for. If you're a lolita with sensory difficulty this one is alright for a short period of time. But deffo don't wear it to a convention. The petticoat is confusion, the tag is on the side you're meant to display to properly show the pearls. You have to wear it inside out. Other than that it's a beauty of a dress, well worth the money the accessories are sturdy and I have no regrets.
I purchased the blouse with the kitten necktie and it's fantastic!
The little skelly doll dangles like a puppet, and there's teeny holes in each ear which could be used to make it into a necklace, or give it earrings. It has a little grey bow glued on, and it appears to be 3d printed instead of vacuformed. It has a pin glued to the back of its head so you can pin it wherever you'd like. They also sent along two white bone-shaped sets of hair clips that have red pain spattered on them, which are fun and a nice surprise! They also sent along a funny cat pin and a very gothy plastic clip with very nice line art, both are delightful and surprise additions!
The blouse! I purchased it in 3x, and it is true to size measurements. The shoulders are actually 45cm/17.5 across the back, which if you're a plus size person allows it to drape well across the back and not pucker. US sizing, I'd put this at a 22w to 24w depending on how busty you are (or how loose you like the hem). The armholes fit!! They are about 27 /68cm around with a little give, and if your shoulders slope a bit, you may be able to wear is with slighly broader shoulders as they'll take up a portion of the sleeves.
The sleeve length is generous! Long-limbed people will be happy with this shirt! Without adjusting the sleeve length on me (I'm 5'8 with longer than average arms), the shorter side of the cuff hits mid-palm, and the rest drapes properly.
Adjusting the armband like a 1920s speakeasy bartender, you can bring it up to the right length for you. Unless you're 7' tall, the sleeves will be long enough. If you have bigger upper arms or big bicep muscles like me, the armbands may need another grommet - but there is plenty of length to do so, about 5 from the end to the 1st grommet.
The fabric is smooth with a very fine grain, possibly rayon or polyester. It is slightly sheer with the stripes - which is really pretty. If you live in a hot climate, the sheer part of the weave will give some breathe-ability. The fabric does not catch on rough skin, and it shines in the light.
All of the seams are well stitched and well finished! the buttons are flattering and low-shine, they seem to glow when the light hits them which is spooky and fun.The collar is unique, it curves like a suit collar but is able to drape down the front, which I like.
The cut of the blouse is very flattering if you do or don't have curves, which is great! You can emphasize or de-emphasize your curves depending on what you wear it with. Trousers or knickerbockers would look great if you're into Ouji fashion - very versatile!
Washing tips: (translated from the tag and literature say) gentle wash with cold water, do not bleach, neutral detergent, wash inside out, hang dry, can be gentle dry cleaned, do not wash with light clothing as color may bleed slightly during first wash, to preserve the dark colors do not soak. Low temp iron with another cloth between iron and shirt as buffer to prevent burns, do not iron for extended periods of time. Avoid direct sunlight, dry inside out.
The reverse of the tag is charming: Welcome, lonely traveler. May you sleep peacefully tonight. - Raven
Overall, wonderful. I'm considering getting the whole outfit now, or at least the corset and another shirt!
I purchased just the corset belt with the side ruffles from this set in 3X and I love it! I'm thinking of getting more of the set, like the blouse.
The quality of the two lace types is very nice and well stitched. The cloth for the corset is soft and high quality, and it's lined! The boning is flexible but springs back into shape if you bend it, and the front clasps are part of a metal boning on both sides that will keep it held in place. Great design. The grommets are well done, nothing poking out and very sturdy!
The back with the corset ribbon - you may need a much longer ribbon if you are at the middle to the max end of the waist measurements. They have a very nice long backing cloth behind the corset ribbon area, I would suggest to pin it (since one side is sewn in, and one is loose for easy adjustment) if you're going to be wearing it for any length of time, since it can slip down if you do a lot of movement.
As for sizing, it may have been that my piece was made a lil more generously, but pinning the backing to make it the longest and getting a longer ribbon, mine can go up to 130cm/51 - however you wouldn't be able to breathe or sit down! So I can definitely confirm the 125cm/49 waist size limit is a hard number.
Making it as long as possible also changes the look a bit with the ruffles, they'll sit on your hips and around front, not at your back. This can be very good if you are a person who likes big back bows, or a big train (which is also available) or bustle, backpack, wings, etc. The corset lays flat against your back when it is longer, which also is comfortable because that part doesn't have boning and won't poke you in the back!
Love, thank you! Will be purchasing more from this designer, site and craftspeople! They did awesome
Omg! My sister and I LOVE the bunnies so much. Adorable. Great quality. And was worth waiting. And quick shipping after pre order time process was made. And the price was very Affordable.
Thank you SO MUCH!
I bought the wine red one, and the colour is simply amazing!
A deep, vibrant burgundy that's really stunning.
The quality is top notch, there's lots of fabric and layers on the skirts and the sturdy elastic waitband makes it very easy to put on and take off, as well as to adjust.
The corset is also gorgeous, the details are just... chefs kiss. The strings on the back and front are all fully adjustable, so you can tighten to cinch in the waist both at the front and the back, and you can loosen up in the front as the day goes on if you feel too restricted (but you won't, because it is really comfortable). The corset is made of a very comfortable material inside. The zipper on the back of the corset is of very good quality (you can tell it won't break easily) and makes putting on the corset much easier than any other corset I own. A perfect combination of elegant, rich taste, good quality materials and with the ease and comfort of modern clothing. 7 out of 5!
Also the pictures are super accurate, so I won't even upload mine hehe.
This set is so lovely and full of details. The print in the skirt is beautyful, the flower Accessoires are very cute and the corset top is very well done.
Pitty it only has three sizes, I had to adjust mine.
I ordered this dress, but it got delayed, nealy to laze for the wedding I'm attending.
Now that it is here, I'm so happy I bought it.
It looks fantastic, and the material is very nice.
I love the embroidery
I bought this set as a back up for my brids maid dress. It's beautyful, full of details and practical solutions: the flowers on the chest are attached with velcro, so easy to detach for wasching.
I love it very very much.
My only regret is that the sizing is so limited , I got the Lagest one and adjusted it to fit me.
The dress is incredibly soft & comfortable & if worn with only the corset, very “subtly” Harry Potter. The corset is also comfortable & not at all constricting/restricting. The cut of the dress is such that you will want to wear either the cape or a cardigan if you’re going somewhere it’s inappropriate to show your shoulders/décolletage; & if wearing a cardigan, bear in mind the dress has flared sleeves with a slit so there is a significant amount of fabric at the wrist, but the slit allows it to be arranged comfortably/easily. Styling it with a fichu is another alternative to the cape (which is comfortable, but a slightly awkward garment when you move your arms).
I ordered this to go with a dress I bought and it works perfectly! Super comfy and high quality not to mention customer service was absolutely wonderful about helping me with my order!
This is my first Lolita Dress I’ve ever bought, and it is absolutely gorgeous! It came so quickly, and it is such high quality plus looks just like the image! All around absolutely thrilled with the dress!

I needed one with an aceptable amount of volume for every day use, and this one is perfect.
