Prints get all the love these days, but no print dresses can be just as gorgeous and usually have interesting details.
>>8747706
What material is this made of?
>>8747719
>>8747722
My favourite part about this JSK is the teensy star shaped buttons.

Look it up you moronic crackhead.
>>8747854
>that overreaction to a legitimate question
You sure you're not the one on crack m8?
>>8747706
I hate to be that guy but this dress is actually incredibly fug. If they just did away with the melty, the bottom bit, and that huge tag it would be gorgeous.
>>8747879
your opinion is very important to us
I love sailor style and these buttons and pockets are so cute.
>>8747879
>If they just did away with the melty,
Are you not familiar with lolita
OPs dress reminds me of this dress - which is super gorgeous in person.
>>8747726
What dress is this
>>8747978
AP's Antique doll. I think it's still in stock too.
>>8747976
I love this dress in the purple colorway. For some reason navy and chocolate makes no sense to me.
>>8747991
Really? I love the combo. I bought it new from Baby in NYC with a matching brown blouse and it's really pretty. I do have to say though - the pictures just don't do the combo justice
>>8748004
Shit, sorry about huge size
>>8747942
Source on this, something Victorian maiden?
>>8747991
Purple and brown combos will forever remind me of chocolate companies like Cadbury or Purdys.

Mary Magdalene

>>8747987
Well shit. It is in stock but only comes in black, white, beige, and lav. I like jewel tones, does AP ever make jewel tones solids or is it all pastel and black
THANK YOU SOO MUCH
Seriously, the victorian elements are what got me into lolita and hoo boy am I so tired of all the screamy prints.
I love texture and tailoring details in lolita. I'm in the process of selling anything vaguely sweet or classic from my wardrobe (minus a few nostalgic pieces), so I can just fill it with Atelier Pierrot and Sheglit/BPN stuff. All black and jewel tones, with minimal white or ivory involved.
I'm keeping pic related, though. I hunted for it too long to give it up.
>>8748127
I know Chiffon Gathers is kind of overdone these days, but I want it in red and black so badly. I have the navy and love it, but it's such a dark shade that I have a hard time matching things to it.
>>8748149
Also love the Kamen Rider stuff from Meta.
>>8748154
>>8748157
Love this with all my soul!
>>8747879
>if they just did away with the things that makes the piece interesting
what is wrong with you
Annnd now I'm making a wishlist of non-print items I want to buy ASAP.

>>8748022
The photo size though..
This is still my favorite.
>>8748061
They do jeweltones, just rarely
Cornet
Office lolita
>>8748579
Wow. Putting that on my list, thanks.
>>8747749
This is a real eye opener. All the black seems more naturally added her than when shoehorned into a dress with print. Maybe its because with a printed dress I am scanning to understand where op picked up certain colors and how they work being incorporated into the coord. Here instead of everything needing to suit the dress, the whole outfit can kind of holistically work together.
>>8748475
Oh, see, another ita.
I must add, prints rule the lolita fashion these days. Sorry not sorry, non-print dresses are ita 99% of times.
>cry me a river
>>8748863
>99%:
Citation needed.
gna repost here from dream dress thread a while back.. good news, someone messaged me about margit pants and they're actually on the way!!
no luck on michael's blessing tho, i know they just re-released in my preferred colorway ugh
>>8748869
At first I liked that dress and wanted it, but I hate how high up the ribbon under the bust is. I have a fairly small bust but I don't think it would fit that style of dress... I think those would only look right on someone very short and A cup
This arrived last week
>>8748903
Also just ordered this one, really wanted it when it first came out so Im glad they got it back in stock
>sellers remorse
Old stock photos never do these things justice, this is just a bad phone snap.
Baby's solid pieces are wonderful.
>>8748157
hnng dresses made of that gauze material will forever be my favorite thing
>>8748863
>prints rule the lolita fashion these days
No, they don't. The non printed dresses like >>8748296 and >>8747947 (so not the basic cotton ones) are fucking everywhere.

Uhuh.
>>8749033
Didn't you know? It's much better to be wearing squirrel party than that ita mess
Pls gulls. Don't take the bait and just post pretty non-prints.
On topic, I got this dress as one of my first JSKs and it's beautiful. It's got embroidery and the material is thick and high quality.
>>8747878
I'm actively hoarding all dresses of this series
>>8749061
Go for it.
>>8748863
Lmao you sound like you just joined the fashion and got your first jsk.
I really love non-printed meta dresses
>>8748863
You're so new it's hilarious. Way to show you know nothing of the origins of the fashion. You probably buy Bodline prints and think you're so cool. Lurk more.
Almost all of my dream dresses are non print. I love these threads
>>8747723 Also, what blouse is this? I'm in love
>>8748903
This dress is so nice, thanks for posting it.
>>8749260
I only wear J-A-P-A-N-E-S-E brand
>>8749295
top kek
>>8748863
Your opinion is objectively wrong.
>>8749295
Bodyline is in Japan, genius. Just because I like my prints from them doesn't make me lesser than you.
>>8748486
>those mannequin arms

>>8749313
Actually yes, yes it does. Also why are you even talking about their shitty prints in a non-print thread?
Also please consider: Antoinette Fleur's lesser-known but equally lovely sister.
>>8749291
I'm wearing it right now, it's really comfortable. It's only just gone out of stock on the meta website but last time it sold out they said just message em if you're after it
>>8749434
Mary Magdalene is the queen of non prints

Just got this and it's amazing. The fabric of the skirt is so soft.

Posting a portion of my attempt to photograph last year's wardrobe. It didn't work because my entire drive wiped mid-photography, wiping out a good portion of the pictures I took. Ah well.
>>8750145 is a skirt by Innocent world, not sure of the name.
This is Renoir OP, Innocent World
Mallory OP (long version) Victorian Maiden
Whyteleafe OP Mary Magdalene
>>8750145
Thank you anon, these are all beautiful. Do you have a favorite dress? Do you still have pics of it?
>>8750150
Gorgeous photos anon, I love seeing all those little details.
Trying to find some non print jsks, can anyone identify this dress? I can't find the lolibrary entry for this colourway
http://www.maidenclothing.net/script/detail.php?id=154062967001
loving the thread. had an awful night so it is sort of cheering me up. dont have much nonprint things saved but will try to contriboot.

Gotta wear that dress for my finals
>>8750234
Omg when I saw this dress in the fashion show pictures I instantly fell in love with it. No way is it worth 2k tho. Baby needs to stop with that.
>>8750270
Kek
>>8750367
>dream dress that you will never find
>>8750374
Oooh that is such a gorgeous colour
>>8750289
2K ANON?? I didn't even look at the price tag when I saw this gown online! That is way too much. It may be one I never own then.
I will forever dream about baby's Amaretto JSK
I recently felt in love with this.
>>8750270

>>8750669
I love this set so much, it's so pretty. It's come up several times on auctions and in WunderWelt too I think, just keep an eye out for it, anon!
>>8750698
This dress is so flippin' luxurious. Black version is my DD.

Pleats!
I also love this dress and non printed Meta.
I really wish brands relesased ,more casual non print items
my sweet child
Non Print Mary Magdelene was what got me into lolita, so many gorgeous pieces! Here's my DD back from when I was a baby ita.
>>8758006
one day this will be mine
>>8758012
Haha same... Bought a MM dress that should have fit and realized I'll never fit anything in their brand, my ribcage is just too big (88 cm bust and you can feel my ribs in the back and front
>>8758041
Yeah I think the one thing I have going for me is my complete and utter lack of boobs. Although there has been a dress here and there that is actually too big in the chest, that's always a terrible feeling when it comes to lolita
Givin' Taobao brands love.
>>8759713
>>8759714
>>8759716

>>8758048
I'd have to alter nearly any MM piece I'd want to own. Blasphemy, but I'd do it if I had the capital to go to a miracle worker.
>>8759762
I'm sorry anon, hopefully you one day get the chance! MMs my favorite brand and I'd hate for others to miss out.
>>8759777
I have big fish to fry before I start going after them.
