Is anyone going to this tomorrow? Do you think I have any chance of getting a Misty Sky Jsk in the navy colorway if I wait for APusa to update their site? I think I waited too long to contact any SS about buying one in person.

I doubt it. When they do that, they usually post pictures of the print everywhere to drive interest. AP-USA would have been showing off the set and telling you it was random in one of x-number of colors, etc.

Japanese Lolitas go for what color makes sense for the print. With Chess Chocolate, of course brown was most popular because it's the color of chocolate. With this release, lavender, navy, and sax were most popular because they look closest to an actual sky. Black was next and then pink.

They're similar because that is what sells. Chocolate theme is crazy popular, so obviously they'll make chocolate things. They're a business, they want to make money.

What happened is the innovative prints kept getting replicated. Now they have to stick with what sells to make up for loss.

People are bitching here about it, but it sold out. It's another chiffon sky print that the more seasoned lolitas love. It's in a cut that is more difficult to pull off and Oo Jia does not have the delicate touch needed to make this look nice. I'm sure most people here wouldn't even buy a new innovative print, they just want it to happen to Oo Jia will replicate it.

>> No.6428360

Frankly, I'd call this print innovative simply for the fact that no one else is doing realistic clouds with sweet, unless I've missed something pretty major recently. But yeah, the cuts stick to regular J-fashion much more closely than the usual monthly print and is fairly easy to dress up or down. There's a reason it's selling out.

>> No.6428531

>>6428523
They would if someone wouldn't slap brand price tags onto it.

The reason why so many of these designs and 'indie brands' fail is because they want to charge $250 for skirts and $300+ for dresses and jsks. People have to learn that in Western societies, unless your shit is already well-known and appropriately marketed, that won't fly.
People don't want to pay designer prices for cheap cloth printscreens and amateur construction. Even brands fuck that up sometimes, and personally I'm not completely convinced that they should be selling shit like plastic resin jewelry for $50 either just because it's a 'unique' design with their name on it.

>> No.6428537

>>6428531
Brands sell it for that much because people will buy it for that much. A lot of indie designers don't sell their pieces for the same price only because of brand prices, it's because of how designing and sewing something yourself is time consuming and they are pricing their own time. Obviously things that are of bad construction will not sell for that price, but many indie brands selling high quality, good designs will go for quite a bit.

>> No.6428538

>>6428537
>people will buy it for that much
See the part where I said well-known and well marketed? Yeah. It's because of their popularity and advertising that people want it. And they see other people with it too and they want it for themselves as well.

A brand didn't just pop out of nowhere one day with no products out previously and started dropping $200 pricetags on their shit and were comparatively as successful.

I actually really liked the toy drops jewelry and almost bought it for full price. I'm really excited to see them going for dirt cheap soon.

This was posted on tumblr for what one girl got in a lucky pack. Seems like they were old stock. Anyone else got pics of what was in them?

anon, you were right. I got the accessory pack but it was all remnants from their sale. still pleased. I got the classic melody socks in pink, the green fairy tale headbow, the night castle necklace in gold, the stupid cupcake ring, the hanikami bear necklace in blue, and the blue lyrical drops rabbit ring. The castle necklace and socks are my favorite.

I got both packs and realized that this year, their accessories pack is a better value than their dress pack.

Last year the dress pack had the triple tart jsk and headbow in black, black and white stripped otk, and a lavender bolero. This year it was a jsk/op, head accessory/wrist cuffs, and socks/ring. One or the other. Three items instead of four. However, for the accessories pack last year, it was two pairs of socks, a necklace, and headbow. I'm disappointed at the dress packs this year.

hate the toy drops, the bow is kind of sad but the socks and necklace are awesome, the ring is okay too.

hey anon, are you selling your bunny ring now? I'm thinking about getting it (I see a post on the comm too lol).

Apologies for possible stupid question ahead- I don't follow AP releases but I'm asking for a friend. Does anyone know if the Toy Drops military parka was popular/sold out quickly, or if there's a chance of getting one still straight from AP? I'm assuming it did since military styles seem to always be popular, but thought I'd ask.

I'm selling the blue bunny ring. It's still for sale on my LSE and EGL sales posts. I'm looking to get rid of it since it's really not up my alley :C
