That's JetJ.

>>9629811
This isn't how 4chan works, Haenuli.

>>9629824
OP is snarking at Haenuli because they're releasing a dress with a pretty similar pint design

Not a complete knock off, but I immediately thought of JetJ too

>>9629824
That's the point. Also the moons here looked like they were cut out poorly in photoshop on the bottom of the image.

>>9629830
>>9629832
What the fuck

Eh, you can only do so much with a "phases of the moon" design, and border prints are about as traditional Lolita as it goes.

>>9629832
One of the many reasons why I will never buy from Ham-euli

>>9629843
it's definitely inspired by the dress, conscious or otherwise.
the print placement, the chiffon sleeves that drape and nip in at the wrist, the v-shaped seams decorating the bodice, the gathered skirt, the two rows of frills. if it were only a couple of those things, i'd have said it was a stretch but there's a lot that are similar.

my boyfriend even noticed that haenuli's new release looked like a knock off of lune d'eau and he couldn't give less of a shit about lolita or fashion.

I'm not a fan of the JetJ dress, but I love the Haenuli OP. It's similar, but I've seen plenty of normie shirts and skirts with the same kind of print, so it's not like it was a super original idea to begin with. There's just really not many ways to depict phases of the moon, like >>9629843 said

>>9629811
I love Lune D'eau and I own it but regrettably it is much too big for me. I am looking forward to this Haenuli release because I'll finally get to have my moon phase dress!

>>9629859
what would you say are the max bust and waist measurements of your Lune?

>>9629811
The JetJ dress is just so much prettier. Now I want it.

Haenuli's dress looks like I could go OTT. Looking forward to its release.

>>9629859
If you don't want it hit us up. But in seriousness, have you thought of getting it tailored or did you not want to keep the dress?

I was thinking the sleeves on the Haenuli OP look familiar- I never forget a dramatic sleeve.

>>9629832
Wooow, the edges of those moons are TERRIBLE, and isn't just the promo picture - you can tell by the waning half moon that those images are what's printed on the dress. The cut is nice, but that poor image quality, (that's supposed to be the focal point), absolutely ruins it.

>>9629952
Agreed. Haenuli one will be an ita magnet.

I'm getting kind of tired of seeing these kinds of threads and debates. We recently had the same shit with kawaii goods.

I've seen so much similar stuff released only to get threads like this.

Does anyone remember the brand whore/brand bitch enamel pin debacle? So fucking petty.

Similar films come out sometimes and there aren't fucking lawsuits over it. There aren't a ton of original ideas anymore. Get over it.

>>9630272
Please unbunch your panties asap

>>9629832
>>9630036
They look like potatoes.

>>9630272
Haenuli has a history of tracing parts of her prints and claiming Chinese replica jewelry as her own original design, so I don't see anything wrong with keeping an eye on whatever new "original" pieces she comes out with.

>>9630321
Explain all the film remakes and song covers.
How many cat dresses do we have? How many bunny dresses? Don't some of them have similarities? What about all those cloud dresses that people screech about how they aren't like misty sky?

How is this any different?

>>9630336
Nothing is original. Nothing is special. Sorry but that's the truth.

>>9630342
Please. Unbunch. Your. Panties.

>>9630342
Film remakes and song covers sold for profit require the permission of the original artist. Are you claiming Haenuli bought the rights to Lune D'eau?

Why is the moons base different in every shape? It should be the same.

>>9630345
Do you know how to say anything else?

>>9630354
>song covers for profit
who fucking pays for music these days?

>>9630387
Most people I know do pay for music. You keep moving the goalposts, anon.

The only thing I like about the Haenuli version is that it doesn't have text written on it. Having Japanese text on my dress that I cannot read seems a bit cringey to me.

But if you compare the two brands designs with each other you can obviously tell that the JetJ version is superior. It doesn't have fugly lace around the bottom and even though JetJ is known for shitty photoshop their moons are thousand times better than those abnorminations in Haenulis version that resemble more of a rotten cheese than the moon phases.

>>9629830
I... I actually really, really prefer this version over Jetj's, especially the OP. Probably going to get it despite the meh print quality

>>9630481
I like the Haenuli version better too. I don't like bxw to begin with, but the top portion of the jetj piece is too colorblocky and i don't like the black overlay over the white. the black on black of the haenuli looks way better. also moon phases are fucking everywhere lately, tons of other motifs have been done repeatedly by multiple brands so i'm not sure why people are freaking out over two moonphase prints

>>9629811
>More than coincidental evidence that kawaiigoods has been ripping off artists
>totally not stealing guiz, its such a simple design anyways
>a dress made with the same plain motif
>omg1! haenuli is a theift!!!

>>9630532
You're talking about 2 different jfash here.

>>9630514
I honestly just wish Haenuli put more effort into this print. It's like the moons were just thrown in as an afterthought. She could have also illustrated or drawn the moons or something like clouds since she could actually, y'know, draw. But if you guys want to go buy a sub-par dress go for it .-.

>>9630025
Idodeclare could have all my money if I could figure out how to order from her

>>9630017
>>9629881
I'd have to measure it, i'm a 31 in. bust, 13.5" shoulder and the bust and shoulders are HUGE. I am a seamstress but taking it in would mean altering the shoulder which is hard because of the ruffle neckline. I have set it aside for now, but maybe eventually will alter or sell it.

>>9630428
Well you're wasting money. If you really want to support an artist you better go to their shows.

Most people I know listen to Pandora for free and suffer through ads cause they're dumb normies.

I'm not "moving the goalposts" - I just think you guys are unrealistic. Tell me all about these supposed original ideas.

>>9630576
Both were accused of theft when they were using simplistic designs.

>>9630607
They just opened an online shop, I believe

>>9630636
Different audiences, different commenters.

>>9630354
No one owns the phases of the moon and no one owns design elements like a double row of ruffles, a gathered skirt, dramatic sleeves or a v shaped bodice. Even put together in one garment no one owns it and no one is owed if someone else does it and you don't need permission either.

JetJ did it better.

>>9630726
Exactly.

those moon phases

>>9629830
See, I think this is hideous now, but I just know that in a few months, Connie will wear it and I'll end up buying it because of her.

>>9629811
>>9629830
These are both pretty lame. Are there any better moon prints out there?

>>9630025
Have you seen pic related from Abilletage?

>>9630944
I want this on a dress.

>>9631087

>>9631093
we could have an amazing dress of these and instead we get garbage.

>>9630655
I did keep an eye on that but the item I'd really like wasn't available, as far as u could see, so I'm waiting on some mention of custom orders

what the fuck tho...

>>9631382

>>9631382
>watercolor illustration

okay, so apparently this isn't shopped, but a photo of a watercolor painting? I guess that explains the moon edges--absorbency of the original paper.
but it definitely doesn't translate well as a dress print. maybe it would look more like a painting if the background was more detailed...stars or some kind of dark gradation.
Or even if the paper texture was made a visible feature.

She should have spent a bit more time on this design.

>>9631382
mouldy potatoes

>>9631492
Now this I'm interested in.

>>9631492
>>9631494

>>9631492
Does anyone own the blouse from idodeclare? Haenuli's looks kinda scratchy

>>9634379
Go ask Ashley Marie, she has one doesn't she? Or was it Keisha? I forgot who bought it first.
