/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Honey Cake fully shirred LP skirt in lavender. I've seen it once. I know it exists. But it's been a few years and now I can't even find a photo of the lavender one anymore.

Still on the hunt for these.

I've been making some progress.

hi newfag here
what is the name of this dress?
maybe i'm incompetent, but i have been searching around for hours and i can't find any pictures of it except pic related

Still waiting on the brown colorway..

>>9397765

AP's Symphonia of the Birds.

Will I ever find this cut & colorway?

>>9397797
seen this go for cheap on Closet Child and yahoo japan

Not a dress but I already have the JSK in BxW. BTSSB Josephine capelet in BxW from 2004. I don't think I've ever seen it being sold but I live in hope someone will find it.

I just want to find my green dresses already.

>>9397774
This cut only? I swear a blue one was just up on cc or wunderwelt

>>9397831
Yes. I really want the switch one. There was the red on on CC. But i have my heart set on the brown one.The capelet is up on CC right now.

put on the backburner for a bit since i'm about to move, but been keeping an eye out for this for a while. it's hard finding an uncommonish dress with a lot of pieces that are still intact

Haven't seen this the entire time I've actually had money to buy it. My soul is not complete until this set is comeplete. Still missing the choker and the dress.

>>9397833
Yeah I don't think I've seen the brown switch jsk come up anywhere since release. I'll link here if I see it come up though. Good luck anon

>>9397810
Rolands come up all of the time on various sites, and usually sell for not all that far off retail. Boz tend to release them at least once a year, often twice a year.

>>9397859
Not dark green rolands though, they released this one a few years back but I've yet to see one pop up.

Metamorphose Hakuouki Pinafore

>>9397797
This is easy to find/get. Just gotta look around.

>>9396720
You have good taste, anon!

Will always be my dream dress, Misty Sky AP. I would be fine with buying the skirt/ JSK in lavender or blue colorway but can not seem to find it under 400 bucks

Sadly no progress made recently.

>>9396727
That's honey picnic senpai.

>>9398617
Ugh yeah. Sorry. That's what I meant. Honey Picnic, the poor man's Honey Cake...Which I am also searching for, though not actively atm since I don't have the funds to buy it IF it decided to pop up right now.
And I guess I'll just leave this here while I'm at it. Another dream dress I feel I'll never find in the right cut and colorway.

My precious

>>9397804
>>9398176
Really? I've been browsing Japanese second hand and auction sites. I've seen other cuts and colorways, but not this particular one. I guess I need to be more vigilant.

I saw this piece on Lm several times, there's one on sale too I think?

oops anon >>9398717 here
meant to reply >>9398670

https://egl.circlly.com/auctions/excalibur-lolita-hyakkiyagyo-jsk-with-kc

I can't stop loving this dress.

>>9398623
The Honey Cake JSK is in Closet Child Harajuku right now, if you're interested:
https://twitter.com/cch_lolita/status/843689095427629056

>>9398764
Thankyou. I've settled on the jsk twice now and it's just not what I want haha just looking for the ivory OP only

>>9399025
This baffles me. There are only a few prints where th OP and JSK are so similiar.

>>9398179

http://page6.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/f209029218

>>9399061
Some people just prefer OPs to jsks is all

>>9399061
Well that's like your opinion man. I thought I could settle. Twice. It just doesn't cut it. I tried to like the jsk more. But I don't. So twice I've bought it, and twice I've sold it.

>>9398764
How do you order specifically from CC Harajuku, if something is not on their website?

>>9397758
>>9397758
Lief OP is on Lacemarket right now

https://egl.circlly.com/auctions/noble-high-tea-series-op-in-mint-from-lief

>>9399426
Yeah I know, but this is a popular and rare print we're talking about. I thought that this was the perfect print to settle for what is easier to get.

>>9399428
Then please explain to me what exactly the OP has, what the JSK doesn't (aside from the cuffs). No really, I'm genuinely interested.
Or could it be that you would be dissapointed in the OP in the end as well?

>>9399469
I live in a very hot climate and I prefer OPs to jsks partially due to not having to wear a blouse with them. I think the neckties with the little bow on it is adorable as fuck. Plus full back shirring, so double the pockets. You are right. They are similar but I want the op, not the jsk. I don't know why you don't get it and why you're asshole is so sore over my preferences. In the end if I wasn't happy with the OP, then I would sell it and move on. Just like anybody else and a dream dream dress that didn't live up to their expectations.

>>9399469
Holy shit dude who cares? Just fuck off and let people dream about their dream dresses.

Keeping the thread relevant here's where my dreams lie. My dog got hit by a car and broke her leg. Paid her vet bills instead of hopping on the MTO
>she's going to make a full recovery btw so at least there is that

One day

>>9399540
>>9399576
Idk why you both got so defensive? I was simply interested in why they preferred the OP over the JSK in this particular print. My friend has the OP and I the JSK and I always thought they were so similiar, so I was just curious,
And thanks, but my butt is fine thank you.

>>9399576
If you're lucky maybe AP USA will do a re-release too. I feel your pain, This is my dream dress in pinkxsax but it wasn't released.

>>9399431
Aww thank you, but I'm looking for the JSK version.( ´,_ゝ`)

>>9399429
get a SS that does in store shopping and ask them for it.

>>9399587
It was your wording. You couched your curiosity with the insistence that one was as fine as the other, so it sounded less like you were interested in their point of view and more like you were pushing your own opinion forward as correct.

On topic, I haven't seen this damn dress since it was being hawked on LM for close to a grand.

This guy in Blue or Green. I've only seen it pop up once.

>>9399429
>>9399663
This, I suggest Tokyo Pirates/Acciotokyo

I just want a good quality lolita maid uniform, really.
:(

I saw this dress on LSE for under $100 one time, but the seller had sold it to someone else by the time I messaged her. I'm still kicking myself over it.

Either this or the JSK in this colorway would do, though I prefer the OP.

Sorry for the double post, but I remember some anon searched for the IW collab with Mawaru Penguindrum:
https://twitter.com/ccyokohama/status/844115872713121793

I must be crazy to still want this. Only this cut and colourway.
Still looking, the girl selling it on LM not long ago was sketchy af so I didn't go through with it.

Still looking for this necklace

ive looked everywhere for this... id take the OP or JSK but only in green

Making some progress! I bought Royal Kingdom in the colorway and cut I was looking for and I managed to find a matching accessory somewhere else. I'm still looking for these.

>>9398226
I saw the upper left one somewhere, I just can't remember where now lol, they all start to blur after a while.

>>9401139
Ive seen several cuts of marshmallow bunny in black on y!Japan. The op for sure but I think I saw that jsk too

tokimeki girl gets half a heart cuz i got the underbust jsk in the same colorway, so my thirst is only half fulfilled

but, steady progress!

>>9401311
This a bit off topic but wasn't that Baby sailor op from last year? I didn't take it when they were visiting my country and I have been starting to feel regret. The skirt didn't look full enough so I left it there but it seems pretty normal in stock photos. Can you give any opinion about it?

Saw this on LM recently and had every intention on buying it once I received my paycheck, but alas, someone else got to it first. Would love if I could have the help in keeping an eye out for it!

VM Fairy Ribbon Off-Shoulder dress
>the only dress from my favorite brand that will ever fit my damn honkers

>>9401323
yup, it's the Amelia Sailor Collar OP from 2016! i'd say the skirt is definitely full enough, it actually kind of eats up my petticoats. it could get a really good poof with enough support. i hope you can find it if you end up being interested in it!

>>9401282
It's the other cut, but thank you!

>>9401581
Ah fuck sorry anon! If I do see that cut pop up I'll be sure to link it here!

Thank you again to the anon in the last thread who linked me to the IW dress!

Still on the hunt for these; preferred color and priority goes from left to right!

>>9400650
same, anon

Salty about missing this. I've been trying to find this in green (preferred) or black

I konw a lot of anons were looking for Meta Apple jsk
https://item.mercari.com/jp/m120184073/

>>9401758
and another Apple jsk https://item.mercari.com/jp/m166089987/

Bad pic but it's all I could snag. Come home, Charline.

>>9397779
i know someone who got this for like 15 bucks in japan from closet child

>>9397779
If you're still interested anon
https://twitter.com/cc_ikebukuro/status/844037087942721537

>>9401347
120cm anon here to give you good news:
VM has several of those styles of OP. Look around for ones with that removable waist ribbon.
Royal Lacey Long OP, for example, is another beautiful VM piece that fits big boobies.

I'd def be interested in Fairy Ribbon as well but only in black.

Charlotte's Bear!

I don't even think they released the yellow

>>9398178
Thanks anon! I hope all your dream dress wishes come true!

>>9402413
Did you check with an in store shopping service -
http://ameblo.jp/04260417/entry-12248402661.html

>>9402282
Fuck me sideways anon, thanks for the tip! I'll keep an eye out; that long OP is gorgeous <3

>>9401721
sorry to say, but these are the most boring dreams....

>>9403007
Not everyone is into OTT monstrosities, newschool-chan.

>>9403007
I know they're not everyones taste, that's why they're proving to be much harder to find than you'd think, but I love them anon.

>>9403007
that's rude as fuck. they're certainly not my own style, but they're fine. why would you even bother commenting on somebody else's dream dresses? if anything it's good that you don't share the same tastes so you're not looking for the same dresses.

>>9402511
Not the anon you responded too but does the online Kerashop only get TF's leftovers? Is the only way to secure a purchase is to get a in-store ss? I saw that the online shop had the tights and that made me think that maybe the online store only gets leftovers.

>>9400889
what about the special set? it's on LM: https://egl.circlly.com/auctions/plus-size-friendly-ap-rosette-collection-special-set-jsk-headbow-green

>>9403092
nvm, it's a different series, just looked the same.

Someone was looking for this leur getter lilac print but I can't remember what colorway, sorry if it's wrong

https://www.wunderwelt.jp/products/w-22704

>>9401941
how in the hell did they manage that
was it a super discounted sale or something?

Always casually searching.

Ive seen a few milky planets pop up recently but Im holding out for a full set.

>>9396620
AUGHGHH HOW DID I MIIISSSSS THISSSSS REEEEEEEE

I can't believe I was able to get this gulls. I've been waiting on this colorway of Elodie Doll for what seemed like forever.

>>9404682
I have the toe shoes OTKs in navy if you're interested. Shipping from US.

>>9396620
Many of these are actually available right now but i'm not in the financial situation to get them. (saving for a trip to the motherland)
Hopefully I can find some of them while i'm actually in Japan! And I want a real pair of VW rhs as well.
However if the Astro Academy skirt showed up in lavender I might make an exception to my saving....

>>9404723
oh, also already have Creamy Scallop JSK in black, hence the little tag on it.

>>9397864
Your photo looks like the black one. Good luck with the hunt!

>>9404690

There's some on maiden clothing for 56k yen.

>>9401747
http://page8.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/h254073948

Missed the preorder window for this and wanted it with the jacquard fabric in black. Blue is still on Wunderwelt Fleur but the price is jacked way up. Ugh.

>>9404813
God I feel you so bad, was in your situation not too long ago.. You want me to get it for you and we can sort out a payment plan?

I'd never seen this colorway before until it popped up on WW, and I fell in love immediately. Sadly, I was too slow and someone bought it before I could.

>>9398226
Anon, did you specifically want Planetary Dreamer OP in Purple or would you settle for blue? Although size would be XL.....

>>9398112
Oh man, same here anon. I appreciate that it's a collab that doesn't look like a disaster (looking at half the shit you make as collabs, Baby) and could actually be worn as clothes without looking like a weeaboo.

Came for the game, stayed for the mature look of it

>>9405440
oh SHIT! where the fuck was I??
damn. I have the bluexivory and would love this blkxgrey one. oh well.
let's be sad together anon lol

>>9403336
Aww I think this was me, but I'm only looking for the JSK in the ivory colorway. Still, thank you so much, that's really sweet!

>>9405440
I have this in the other cut and if you can get this colorway do it! It's so pretty.

Pls just pray for me.
I'm such pastel trash.

A girl is selling mille rose on LSE

It's not a dress, but I really regret not buying this bag (Metamorphose crown embroidered hexagon) when it was available and now I'm kind of obsessed with it...

>>9409004
I think it's already sold. I checked her LM link and its not up

Dream skirt get

I love old shirred dresses so much, and velveteen.

https://item.fril.jp/78a2a75e8c7dc8c34d7dcd8d76f8e066
I think someone was looking for this.

I lost this for a good price.

Pink/Cream Sweet Devil for $400 or lower.

>>9404212

omg the teddy motors. Yesss

>>9404212
Half of the dresses on your list are dream dresses for me too. Good taste anon!

I hope to find 1-2 of these before my birthday in June.

>>9404813
I don't get posting in this thread if you can't toss the money right away. Bc seems like most of the time ppl post the dresses if they find or even go out of their way to do it. If you can't afford it right now don't post or at least don't whine about it.

>>9409464
? to be fair, this is a dream dress thread, not a WTB right now thread. people are allowed to have dream dresses without being able to purchase them immediately, so i really don't understand your complaint.

>>9409468
Not that anon, but it's kind of a general accepted idea that if you see your absolute dream dress, barring some serious financial difficulties, you should have some money stored away just for it. Especially since a lot of the time, the dresses aren't even expensive, just uncommon to find.

I've always assumed the entire point of dream dress threads is to help each other find them, and I think a lot of other gulls see them that way too, so it gets really annoying when you're going out of your way to help someone find their dream dress, only for them to miss out on it because they don't have money.

>>9409475
>barring some serious financial difficulties
> >>9404813 posted about losing their job

i think that's considered a serious financial difficulty so i don't get why they were being singled out

>>9409477
Then why post? Saying that you would kill for a dress, and then saying, "lol can't buy it now!" seems kind of counterproductive. Just wait until you're stable again instead of wasting someone's time.

>>9409480
i'm not the anon who posted the dress, i just think it's such a silly and minor thing to raise up a complaint about. linking something on lacemarket isn't' really a huge time investment so i'm not seeing the big deal.

>>9409173
I'll be on the lookout for your anon, I think I've seen that dress pop up once before on Y!J auctions.

>>9399576
Are you still looking for this?
http://page17.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/v489738858

>>9409513
Not that anon, but that price tho. Wasn't there just an MTO for this print?

I love this JSK SO MUCH. I finally found in on an app about two weeks ago and sent it to my SS. They made contact to buy it and never got a response; turns out it had sold on a different app a while back and that's why. Someday...

>>9409548
I don't think that colourway was in the MTO.

>>9409556
Yes it was. The black x white, pink x white, pink x red were avalible for the MTO. I got the b x w but I would still kill for the p x w and p x b OP.
That black x white jsk has been up at that price before the MTO was even announced. I spent less than that amount on the full black x white OP set with the headbow plus 2 OTKs PLUS as fees during this mto

>>9409554
Same anon, same. I saw it in the original app but hesitated to buy it. It's been months and I still regret it.

Obtained my dream dress. Can we all just pause for a moment to celebrate this moment

>>9409910
Congratulations, anon!!

>>9409914
Maxed out my overdraft but realised this was a once in a lifetime opportunity.

>>9409495
TY! I try to browse YJ/mercari/fril at least once a day with hopes, but it never hurts to have other eyes out there!

>>9409910
Congrats anon, what an amazing feeling

>>9409910
That's pretty cute. Congrats, anon!

Just got one of my dream dresses NWT for $200 less than I thought I'd have to pay for it.

Feels good, gulls. ;-;

I think I finally have enough to buy this. I didn't want to be in debt so I missed out on the last 2-3 sales of this... Hopefully it'll be back on the market now that I'm checking religiously.

>didn't have health insurance
>owed $800 in taxes
>got health insurance
>owe $400 in taxes
>fuck me

>>9412346
Congrats! That's awesome! What dress is it?

>>9409402

Sorry anon, looks like you were too late. It sold earlier today https://egl.circlly.com/auctions/angelic-pretty-melty-ribbon-chocolate-jsk-beret

>>9405964
I'm pretty set on purple, and I'd need a Medium. Thanks anyways, anon.

>>9406524
I wear gothic exclusively but I love your taste anon. Will post here if I come across any of these items.

>>9412912
>Sold to: Empire
Dw anon it'll be back on the market once she gets a photo or two in it lol

>>9412963

For like $200 more.

http://item.rakuten.co.jp/violetblue/10004289/

>>9413073
Ah sold out sorry didn't see

>>9412924
Thank you anon!!!
When I came back to Lolita after an absence & previously being gothic and ega, I was convinced I was into classic, but then gradually my sweet wardrobe grew and I couldn't lie to myself anymore fml

>>9412963
>>9412981
Keep being jealous. She obviously checks sales a lot more than any of you and is luckier too :^)

>>9413117
Hi there (friend of) Empire.
Hope you/she won't stretch it out at least

>>9413196
Do you actually think she can't fit in her dresses? She said she didn't like how they looked on her not that they didn't fit.

Obviously someone is salty about missing out. She will probably let me borrow the dress too.

I obtained a dream dress! The timing for this to pop up was perfect. I'm so glad Tokyo Alice takes overseas order by email, and they were so quick to email me back, too.

>>9413073
10000¥?!

>>9413196
Not that anon but she doesn't look very large at all and this is a size L. No need to suggest someone is fat because you don't like their buying/selling habits

>>9409275
Found it!
https://egl.circlly.com/auctions/aatp-nwot-sweet-devil-jsk-in-offwhite

>>9413117
This.

Can't believe the salt. She's fucking lovely :P

>>9413117
>>9413473
>hurr hurr you're just jealous
>:P
White knights please fuck off to your hugbox and stop derailing.

>>9413449
Thank you but I was hoping for the PinkXCream colorway. That's the WhiteXCream version.

>>9413488
The anon(s) who made those comments derailed first so fuck off

People who get butthurt that someone else gets their dream dress first should check sites more often and have money on hand, simple as that. Do you really think people are calling her out because they're not jealous she's bought a few popular dresses for cheap?
I'd like to see these people say that if they could sell for a profit, they wouldn't.

>>9414188

Yeah, gotta give her that since she doesn't much else going for her.

I thought this thread was a safe space

>>9414188

Yeah, gotta give her that since she doesn't have much else going for her.

>>9414203
>I know her and her life from what she puts on the internet
She has a job in her field of study and friends who stick by her which is probably more than what most people here could say

>>9414188
Whenever I get a good deal and the dress doesn't fit, I pass that savings on to the buyer because I actually enjoy this fashion and want people to find dresses that might not otherwise be able to get them

>>9414300

That's nice, anon, but I was referring to her mediocre coordination skills and her tacky taste. I really don't care about her life.

>>9414188
>>9414203
>>9414300
>>9414338
>>9414343
y'all are all idiots, ffs.
start acting like adults and just wait for the next fucking dress to come up like the rest of us do.
>tfw had people buy dream dresses out from under me before
>tfw i'm a fucking adult who didn't rant about them on /cgl/ dream dress threads like a moron
>tfw i later snagged the same dresses for great prices because i waited

>>9414448
Seriously. The salt and jelly in this thread is ludicrous.

>>9400658
I have this print in lavender high waist jsk and adore it. I really want the op as well but have yet to see anyone coord it so I'm not sure how it'll look

People have been looking for this one.

>I've been looking for it too but I just got tickets to Japan
>live my dream for me

This cut and colorway is suffering.

>>9414448
These threads are usually pretty drama free, this bitching must be a single sour gull

>>9415833
Fuck if only it was the jsk

>>9415852
I'm selling the OP in this colourway
So close uhhgggg

>>9409013
What colour are you chasing? I've got brown and gold

i am seeking the old yetti usakumya, anybody seen one?

I know one was found/sold and bought sometime last year or so

I've gotten two of three of my dream dresses. I'm so happy anons!! I just bought the second one yesterday.

>>9412391

This is all I really dream about anymore.

>>9420059
Thank you both for the links! Unfortunately, I'm only looking for the jsk in either brown or black.

>>9419844
I think there was (a really overpriced) one on LM, depending on how badly you want it.

>>9419895
I've seen the gray skirt show up about 3 times within the past few months on different websites and for really cheap. Don't lose hope!

>>9397853
Starting to think I'm never going to find this. Ugh.

>>9419844
Its up in pink on LM for <$100

>>9412391

pretty sure I saw this recently on a secondhand store. GL anon before someone stabs you for it lol

Oh mein dolly cat
Soon

>>9419419
Thanks! It's even prettier in person, so I couldn't be happier. All the colorways are so beautiful. My favorite was the one I got because it reminds me of Beauty and the Beast, but I'd love to see the blue.

>>9421376
thanks anon! but my heart is set on the denim and red colorway

>>9409013
>>9418200
I'm the exact same. It's my dream gothic bag because I don't wear crosses. I like the fact that the shape is suggestive of a coffin without literally being a tacky coffin. I've been looking for this in black for two years (admittedly not as dedicatedly as I should, I go through phases of being very intense and checking every single auction site, flea market app and second-hand site and then don't bother for a while) and it's such a struggle. I've seen the brown a lot and seen gold and teal before but never black. I finally managed to snag the white recently but it was the giant backpack version (bigger IRL than it looks on the model) - hoping I can get the mini bag in black. Good luck to you anon!

sage for no contribution

i love this so much

Been looking for this dress (OP or JSK don't matter) since 2009, missed out on it the only time I found it on closetchild :( At this point I'm willing to pay big buck just to finally get my hands on it. Grey pink version ONLY and should have the pompoms.

>>9419357
Was able to get this in a different cut.
First pastel dress in a closet of chocolate and wine colors. Wish me luck with my sweet journey!

I've died and gone to lolita heaven.

Just in case:

Also have fun in Japan anon and tell us if you found some dream dresses.

Is the anon who wanted this still around? I'm thinking of selling mine but haven't decided yet. It's the original 2003 release, but it's missing the waist ties.

I have it in two colors and don't know if I can justify keeping both. I'll either let this one go or the deep wine colorway, but it may take a bit to decide.

Also searching for this Moitie OP in white, black, short or long.

>>9426663
I am Anon! How much are you hoping to let it go for? I'm in no rush so please drop me a message when you decide.

>>9426663
How did you lose the waist ties?

>>9426663
I've wanted the wine colourway for ages, if you listed it on LM I'd be first in line.

>>9427304
Thank you. I almost wish I was, unfortunately I only crave the navy.

- Pleats a la mode anon

>>9427332
I would ask $115 for it, though I may remake the waist ties before I sell it since I have the red ones to base an exact replica off of, so if that's the case then a little more. In the meantime, thank you for your contact info! I will send you an email when I decide to sell and will also have an eye out for you in case another comes up.

>>9427413
They were already gone when I bought it.

>>9427444
Absolutely; I'll post both of them here before anywhere else, but I will likely only let go of one and I haven't decided which yet.

>>9427304
>triple tart anon

thanks anon, i've known about this listing for a while and it's quite old so idk if the seller's still available. plus the price is a bit out of my budget range right now but once my living situation settles down, i'll probably send an inquiry about it.

>>9427514
Thanks very much anon, and keeping an eye out is also very much appreciated.

>>9427304
>Witch in the Forest anon
Thank you, I've had my eye on that listing. I'm hoping it'll drop to under 30k.

The gradient special set OP of Misty Sky is up on Yahoo Japan for anyone who's looking for it (and has an extra $400 laying around).

I cant believe I fell in love with this dress, OF ALL DRESSES

>>9429329
The inner bitch in me really wants to post that pic of Voldie wearing this dress

>>9429332
I once saw someone at a convention wearing it and shed a tear

and wondered how long id get in prison for mugging a girl for her dress

>>9421665
Oh god anon I just got the blue colourway! Now my collection is complete!

>>9429329
Are you actively searching for it? I am thinking of selling mine. I have the rerelease though.

Baby don't hurt me

>>9429392
Not OP, but how much would you be selling it for?

>>9429410
It's currently being sold on Lacemarket for $480 and $400. I am located in Europe and I am thinking about pricing it at 360 euro.

It's currently only worn once and I have the tags somewhere. I was thinking about taking some coord pictures before I part with it.

>>9427332
Alright, anon; I've made up my mind. I'm letting go of the black. Emailing you now!

>>9429279
Yes, it certainly would. I have about a 90cm bust and 68cm waist and it fits great. There's both shirring and corset lacing in back.

I found out about this dress thanks to Wunderwelt and fell in love. Right after I got it and I'm even more in love with it!

>>9427332
>>9429644
The email you left isn't working; if you're interested still then my email is in the name.

Just missed this one on cc, feels bad man. Any help would be appreciated

>>9429644
That is great news, that makes searching for this so much easier.
It's pretty much my dream dress, I also own the skirt, bustier, bonnet in Ivory and also in black (except the black has a kc and not a bonnet), I'm just really in love with this series!

>>9429654
Hey Anon, I got an email from you and replied!

>>9427332
>>9427514
I didn't want to be that guy but this jsk usually goes for less than $100, and I've seen it selling for less than 5k with all parts on Japanese sites. It might be a dream item but if you have some patience you will get a better deal.

>DD threads are a scalper's paradise

>>9430679
Those are usual an instant sell that no one get grab unless you're in Japan and once you factor in fees and shipping for a velvet dress, then anon's price is average.

Jellyfish Princess anon, it is time.

It's currently at $870 AUD with 5 days left

This is gonna be a bloodbath

My next venture!

>>9431310
about $945 USD now

>>9431319
Already? Can't wait to see how this plays out.

>>9431322
Honestly, I'm amazed it didn't start out at something like 500k+ yen right off the bat. I've seen listings like that before for less rare "unicorn" dresses.

>>9431323

idunno, I'm not that surprised. It wasn't really that well-received when it came out, it's kinda fug for a wedding dress, and not really true to the source material either. Kind of like IW's Rozen Maiden collection, didn't really fully appeal to either the weebfans nor the lolitas.

>>9431340
Oh definitely, I was talking about the typical Y!J scalper though, like the 200k+ yen Puppet Circus scalpers you see sometimes, among others.

>>9431319
There's a Chinese girl who's willing to pay like $10,000 for it

>>9431357

I know. Most of the noise surrounding this dress came from cgl or weibo, so Japanese scalpers wouldn't have caught wind of how much money some girls are willing to pay for the dress. So all they would have to go on is how lukewarm the reception of the dress was when it came out.

Whereas Puppet Circus was widely hyped among Japanese lolitas, so it's easily obvious that many girls like Puppet Circus, making it a prime target for being scalped.

On the upside, if this auction ends high enough, we might see other girls come forward to sell their dresses, which is good for those who have this as their dream dresses.

>>9431366
If she's even still around. Even the lolita threads on cgl feel dead lately compared to even a couple of years ago.
I don't know how weibo works but is it super active or is it like how it is here/on LJ?

>>9431243
Lol someone in the comments section is offering 200k, but the seller declined saying some more people offered this.
Shit is lit.

>>9431393
Shit, if it goes over 200k that means we're looking at the 2000-3000 USD range or higher then, like what Baby's OTT dresses go for.
>you will never afford this dress
on the bright side, if seems if anything would ever inspire Baby (and similarily AP) to rerelease, it's when they actually take note of these 200-300k+ auctions. Kuragehime is actually still ongoing iirc, so maybe they could tie one in to promote a manga volume release?
I just hope whoever wins it takes detailed photos/videos and makes a better coord for it than that one other random Chinese girl did (please)

>>9404764
There is red JSK available on Buyee
http://buyee.jp/item/yahoo/auction/u139865339

>>9431319
~1.1k

I'm surprised it's still so low, honestly. Maybe it's just gulls that want it for the legendary status.

>>9430679
I've seen the Japanese sales, in fact I've missed one is perfect condition for 3k- it's almost impossible to get those deals. Though if it's missing waist ties it shouldn't be selling for over western market value, anon can sell it for whatever she wants

>>9431243
>>9431243
I seriously want Kuragehime-anon to get this, I have never felt so strongly about something I have no desire to wear

>>9431417
There's also two red OPs on LM and one on y!J. Not sure why people keep posting this as dream dress with how easy it is to find since it just came out, unless they're just too cheap to pay what it costs

>>9431243
If no gull gets it, I hope other owners see this and decide to sell it. Because if I owned that dress, I sure as hell would now.

iirc there was an anon looking for this print, this and the white op are up on fururun for a good price.

>>9431575
Either that or the Chinese lolitas haven't heard about it yet (fortunately)
Wasn't one of the girls offering like $5000 too because she wanted it for a wedding dress? Though it was a while ago, but still.

>Paypal isn't letting payment go through
I've heard this a few times in the last couple days on here. What's going on with it now?

>>9431402

You're kind of aiming too low. The only time Baby paid attention was when the auction for an OTT MTO hit the 500k yen mark with many different bidders in the history. That there's many different bidders is also important, it lets them know that more than one girl will pay over xxk yen for the dress, not just the one girl who already bought her dress.

Plus a collaboration doesn't quite work that way. Baby has to pay licensing fees to the IP holder. So the bar is set even higher if you actually want them to re-release this dress. Better pray it hits the 500k yen mark by the time the auction finishes, then write in to Baby, point them to the auction and request a re-release.

fukken Christina JSK from Innocent World. I know there were two lengths, I don't remember the cm measurements of the length variations, I just know I want the shorter one I have pictured here. The black/white one. Idk why, but this dress has resonated with me in a way I've never known.........and it's stupid hard to find. OAO

>>9432202
>>9432214
Same here, let's suffer together anon. Bought my dream dress and can't pay with anything but my balance. I really wish paypal was more transparent with their problems and seemingly random errors.

Original anon, I paid for a Paypal invoice today and had no issues. I hope it sorts itself out.

Also great taste Cameo Window anons. The special set is the best colourway (imo).

>>9432243
Aw man, I had this dress in that color and sold it a couple years ago. It was so comfortable and easy to wear; I'd love to pick it up in green some day. I've seen those come up recently, but never wanted to pay the asking price for something so plain.

Who was the anon that said she was a slut for Creamy Mami? Both of the AP collab tights unused.

Really just want this cut and color so badly.

I saw this and now I'm in love. IDK if I'll ever be able to own it, it doesn't even have a real name afaik. The post said it's by Baby.

>>9434143
How gorgeous! It looks ancient! Sorry I don't have any useful info for you but keep an eye out on auctions and Wunderwelt, the latter often stocks old school pieces so you might find it one day.

>>9434150

>>9434143
Hi, anon! That's my dress!
Someone actually sold one in the BST thread on here a few months ago. I've found it in red, but it was a long finished Mbok auction and was a non-velveteen version. The oldest it could be is 2000, because the only image I've ever seen of it aside from the auction I got it from was a street snap from before the GLB (I really do believe it's a late 90's piece).

If you want me to take any detail shots for you then I will gladly do so. The care tag is super ancient and is a really poorly done print of the material on it and that's it. Unfortunately it's kinda falling apart due to the age, so I'm going to re-do all the seams pretty soon to make it last longer.

>>9434299
Ooooh ok thank you for the info! Can I have a shot of what the back looks like for curiosity? I assume it's fairly plain but I just want to see it! And yes, good luck keeping it alive, it needs to live, it's too pretty to die!

If that person who was all tore up about not getting the bed JSK in ivory is around at all, then one just popped up!
https://item.mercari.com/jp/m29034034130/

>>9434909
Thank you so much!
I'm the anon who missed it while refreshing at work. Just put a request for it! It means a lot to me that I get it. It hit me hard that I missed it because I wanted to get it for a very special friend of mine. Wish me luck!

>>9434944
Great, I really hope you get it! As soon as I saw it I thought of you. Best of luck!

>>9434909

In case you didn't get it anon, a full set for it just showed up on Yahoo Auctions!

>>9427304
Thank you. I passed on the Gathered Chiffon. It's colorway had more lavender than pink. I did place a bid on Queen's Coach and won.

I shot myself in the foot by not just getting a friend to bid on this for me- it looks like it was bought by a shopping service so I'm prepared for that painful resale price

>>9434489
Certainly; sorry for the really low quality phone photo. I could get better ones with my real camera for you tomorrow if you'd like.

The back is really plain compared to the front. A detail I thought was interesting was the buttons are plain steel and the waist ties are super close together. They did this on a lot of older pieces. The newest I've seen with that waist tie placement is 2004.

Also, I messed up in my first post; the *newest it could be is 2000. It's 2000 or earlier.

>>9431243
I gotta say, this auction has been a little underwhelming? I expected a lot more bidders.

Pray for Season 2 of Kuragehime.

Considering a Chinese lolita wanted this as a wedding dress - and how much mid-range wedding dresses go for these days - I'm honestly not surprised it's gotten this expensive. I hope whoever gets it treasures it more than, 'lol I bought it only to stuff this in my closet, never to wear it or have it see the light of day again'.

I am so grateful I got to watch this legendary dress pop up and then get sold for 4 months's rent.
