These exact cuts and colorways only (black) except for the Alice Bambi OP my top priority is black, then white, then the red and pink are least desirable.

I got what I thought was my dream dress today... it turns out the seller used the picture of the lavender colorway. It's one of IW'S older dresses so the lighting is bad in thr stock pic and it could be interpreted as ivory.
It's partially my fault because I didn't confirm with the seller (it wasn't explicitly listed). Her proof pic's color was ambiguous as well. I'm just so disappointed that I'm now stuck trying to sell the dress and yet again have to return to the 10-month long hunt.

>>9709569
I've had the IW Chandelier print (OP version) and the fit of it was awkward, so I sold it. I'm not sure how the fit of the JSK is, but it's been one of those dresses that I just let out a long sigh when I see it. It's simply gorgeous; the flocked velvet on the soft wool just made my heart melt, and the lace and bustle on the OP were so delicate and elegant, I miss it so much. Best of luck to you in your hunt for the JSK!

I got all of my dream dresses this year.
Good thing: I can concentrate on blouses, cardigans, shoes, bags and such. Also, it's nice to check sales less regulary, because you're not afraid of missing out 'that dress'.
Bad thing: My dream dresses were more exciting before I got them. One of the reasons is, because I feel like they don't look that good on me, because I'm still too fat and I neglected interesting staple pieces.

my dream dress is coming in the mail. It's based on my favourite piece of music, but I'm petrified it won't look good on me.
I got my other dream dress pretty early into my lolita journey. I still haven't worn it out. I love it, but it's a little too sweet for me now. I wish I could do it justice. I want to make something really exciting out of it but I think it's too much of a busy print to do anything crazy with it. Oh well.

How long did it take you to find your first dress you would fall in love in?

I'm still on the lookout, as a total newbie, I guess.
I have ran into pic related, but my excitement waned a little, when I discovered that the red colorway is not available in my size anymore. I kinda like the blue one, and the sax could look pretty, too, but I cannot decide which, if any, I should get, or maybe if I should try a bigger size with red.

How strong is the feeling when you find a dress to dream about? I'm having a hard time finding dresses to get excited about, I'm indifferent about most of them, and I'm not sure I have yet found a dress to dream of.

>> No.9718100

when I see a dress I absolutely NEED, and that need lasts for a long time... every time I see it I feel this strange feeling in my heart, like my boyfriend telling me sweet things, that's when I know it's a dream dress. I get a bit obsessed with it, wanting to see coords with it, or look at pictures of it... for me, it's like having a crush. lol

My first dream dress was literally the reason I got into lolita. I got more introduced to the fashion bc of tumblr, and the moment I saw it, it was like...I knew I needed it and might never happen. But after about four years of being in the fashion, that dress is sitting in my wardrobe now, safe and sound.

It's okay if you don't have a dream dress now or ever. Just buy things you like and discover your style. Maybe in time, you'll find something that really captures your heart.

I agree with all the previous anons; it’s really just an overwhelming feeling. The few dream dresses I’ve had, I’ve felt like I could trade most/if not my whole/ wardrobe for this one dress. It’s usually I can’t stop looking at pictures of it, wanting to see it coorded, appreciating all of its details through pictures. If you’re still new, don’t worry it will come. I think my dream dress intensity grew as I was in the fashion longer, and knew dresses that really just felt like “my style” or “aesthetic.” Kind of like a cornerstone for your wardrobe or image perhaps?

I literally have my dream wardrobe. I have all my dream prints (not all the desired colorways). I got a better job, paid off my debts and then bought all the brand that I can never wear.

When I started wearing lolita, it was my dream to have a wardrobe like pic related. Now It's way more impressive. I think I would panic if I had to choose this many to keep. Nobody knows that I really have this much because I never really document or share it.

These are my top dream dresses. I'm getting holy lantern in the mail. But I'm noticing that most of my favorites have that cute baby doll shape. Are there any other dresses that have this shape that I should keep my eye out for? I love how they look.

I found anniversary rose yesterday too so I ended up just buying that instead and trying not to think about the ETC :(

>>9720059
It's a chinese lolita. afaik they are open to doing payment plans still but it just costs a lot more than I would ever anticipate for that dress.
I can technically pay for it without a payment plan, I'm just really struggling to justify that amount of money for this dress in particular. I guess because it's more plain so my brain can't handle the idea that I could buy 2 nice dresses with the same money. (Plus the skirt has come up for like 2000-8000yen ish).

I have 41. Maybe more? I think I cataloged them all but who knows if I have one or two hidden somewhere in a suitcase or garment bag somewhere. I'm awful like that. It's not a lot compared to others with 150+ piece wardrobes but I'm happy with my collection.

I don't wear it often at all. This year, I can probably count the times I wore it outside of a convention setting on both hands and still have fingers left over. I work as a salaried retail manager which means I'm tethered to my store and always have to cancel plans. It sucks for work/life balance but I paid a ton of stuff off and bought a lot of brand this year.

I'm actually quitting and looking for something that hopefully pays close but strictly hourly with overtime if I want to pick up hours. When I was full time but hourly, I'd usually wear it weekly, once a month at the very least. Now I can't even get out of bed on my day off and I throw my phone across the room and pray my DM doesn't call me asking why I'm not answering calls to come in. I clocked 70 hours last week and did 2 15 hour shifts back to back and lost my day off due to a call off and no coverage. I get paid the same as if I did my usual 50 hours. This is my life right now.

Dream Dresses were Honey Cake, Chess Chocolate, Sweet Cream House, Marine Kingdom, Sugar Hearts, and Milky Planet Special Set (closet child $150 fuck yeah). I'd still like to own Honey Cake in Ivory. I want Loyal Rosette in brown, Princess Cat in lavender or wine, and I'd like to own Dream Sky again. But I feel like everything at this point is wishlist?

Hey all... So I've been dreaming of Perfume Bottle by MM for a long time now, long story short I recently purchased the Brown OP and to my saddened dismay, found the arm holes just too tight. My dream colorway is the Lavender and I kept seeing it on CC. I finally gave in tonight and went to purchase it when I was alerted it had been sold..just then.. so now my watch begins. If anyone finds it I'd appreciate it so much.

Question for the wiser and more experienced than me, for some reason I have the perception that End of Immortal Eden is a print that sells quickly at high value, but I don't know why? It's very pretty but is there a particular reason it's so popular other than the print being nice? Obviously asking as it's on my dream list but I'm currently mentally slotting it under "pray for a rerelease" due to the secondhand value. Maybe this will mark me as "new" or something, I admittedly only really got into the fashion two years ago. I just don't really hear about this print much in comparison to Melty Ribbon Chocolate or even other AatP prints.

Mary in the Sky with Candies.

Admittedly I haven't been searching hard, but this has always been my ultimate dream dress in red. I would probably settle for ivory at this point, maybe even pink if it was a good deal.

The only other cut I like is the 2012 rerelease.

anything below 1k is likely to be a scam, someone I know tried to get one cheaper one from Japan and it never worked out.

Not really sure why you're so upset about it?
My friend urgently needed cash for an emergency and I was helping her raise that money. She doesn't really want to sell her dress in the first place, that's why she isn't selling it afterwards.

I politely declined offers and I fully understand if it was an unreasonable price point to some people. I made it a point not to link it to the anons in DD thread because I know you guys made a vague conclusion about how much you'd ideally pay for it.

Who decides what’s the going rate? Isn‘t well above a grand the going rate?
After all, not all ‚sold‘ pieces were actually sold. The one I wanted to buy for 88,888 yen that‘s was a scam and I know a couple more listings that were scams. The only cheaper ones are the japanese ones and these are usually sold in the blink of an eye (like the stained 60k one on mercari or the 75k one on yahoo) and all the SS and paypal fees not even counted in.

I simply feel like there’s this misconception that CTP is cheaper now just because of some lucky sales on the japanese market.

>>9745684
I'm basing my data off http://nadinao.com/cats-tea-party-value/ (which is sorta recent, last year's data) which includes pieces that were sold. I'm sorta basing my going rate around that.

Although, isn't the western market usually more expensive than the japanese one?

The problem with this data is though, that the average price is a bit skewed by the first couple of sales. You can see it did raise in value after 2015. So if you exclude them you get a higher average value, which is more accurate as it represents what people are willing to pay now.

Also, something that skews the data are those urgent sales. The person who bought the last set for 1,100 usd did so in mere minutes (I remember how I missed out) as it was again an urgent sale. Do urgent sales represent the value correctly though? I'm pretty sure there would be people who would pay more than 1,300 for the set with thge missing choker if they had more time to save up.

You can tell that the two dresses give a completely different feel right. Princess cat uses all jewel tones, and is very saturated in color. In comparison romantic cat has a much softer feel.

i.e. someone who likes CTP would more likely prefer romantic cat over princess cat.

you can actually see a lot of AP rehashing cuts throughout the years.

My DD isn't as expensive as that but I'm willing to shell out 40-50k for it because I want it so bad. There was an auction for it at 30k a while back that I lost because of something dumb and I really regret not just bidding up to 50k.

ugh yeah exactly this!
my dress was sitting on fril for 50k for the longest time, and I was thinking to myself that it was just a really inflated price and it would go down eventually.
... man fuck.

Is your DD particularly rare? As in you don't see it for sale ever?

I have this "rarity" spectrum in my mind: on one end are dresses that are valued very high, but pop up relatively often & changes hands often (e.g. CTP). The other end is dresses that just never appear, and when they do they're pretty reasonably priced or cheap.

>> No.9747494

>>9747487
The print itself isn't too rare, it pops up every few months in other cuts and colors just never both at the same time.
I'd say it's in the middle of your spectrum- it appears semi frequently/infrequently but most of the cuts go for around retail.

Unfortunately I do have some nonprint dream dresses that just never ever appear, and when they do another buyer snatches them up immediately.

>>9747494
The pieces that never appear are probably "staple" dresses, so they get a lot of wear and subsequently, compared to the other end of your spectrum, don't change hands often because of its nature.

I don't think I'm ever going to find this. Doesn't even match most of my wardrobe, it's just a nostalgia/sentiment thing. Oh well.

I think she primarily looked for Hina Ichigo. The IW sets appear from time to time, but Hina seems to be rather rare, from what I noticed keeping an eye on RM stuff.
Currently there are Suiseiseki (50k), Shinku (42k), and Kanaria (16.8k) on Frill, with Suigintou which sold a while ago and Hina being sold since I first searched on Frill.

Too bad I don't like how the RM dresses from IW look like. And the missing crosses on Suigintou's dress, blasphemy!
In the meantime, I'm dying for Suigintou and Shinku bags from SuperGroupies…

I have a feeling I'd look terrible in the Beige/Antique Camel colour, though, I'm almost tempted to get it to test it out. Blue, Grey and Rose are my favourite colours for this cut. I use to see the grey often, but now that I can buy more stuff, I never come across them in time.

Be warned about the Curious JSK anon, it's made out of a very unfortunate blend so unless the previous owner hardly wore it it's likely to have fuzz and pilling ALL OVER. I'd bought the blue colorway a while back and it looked like shit. I tried cleaning it up several times with one of those pilling trimmer gadgets and it hardly did anything. A friend who's a professional seamstress told me it was just sucky fabric and it would just get worse with wear. I felt really bad about letting it go, but I just couldn't bring myself to wear it out.

I'm aware of the anon who's been posting about wanting Hinaichigo. FYI, she's not the only Rozen Maiden anon. There were others several threads back (including at least one who wanted Shinku) and my post was directed at them.
