Opening image is from Kera issue 1, April 1998. It shows a girl holding bags from "PRETTY", which is Angelic Pretty before they became Angelic Pretty.

This looks like it's a lolita petticoat and bloomers being worn with an Adidas jacket?
>>9025389
oh, it actually says 古着 (second hand) for her skirt, so it might just be a vintage petticoat.
Note the rectangle headdresses.

Bodyline shop interior from around 2006
>>9027296
Hey thanks fot sharing more old school material! I really enjoyed them, especially the street snaps from pre-social media days!
I always thought Bdyline had decent shop interior, too bad their designs never caught up and stay at the ita mess level

bodyline A/W 2006 Catalog
>>9027308
No problem!
I wanted to get the first kera scanned, but it's not very lolita. I can post more of it if you want? I'm also scanning this whole bodyline A/W 2006 catalog, and I can post the whole thing or just the interesting bits?
>>9027318
>>9027319
Can you please post the whole thing, anon?

p.s. if you meant kera and not the bodyline catalog, the answer is still yes, but let me know? I can post both too.

I heard btssb was also sold at Pretty, I wonder if that's true and if they sold other lolita brands as well?
>>9028557
Angelic Pretty was sold online on Baby's website. I'm not sure if Pretty sold Baby though.
PRETTY for sure sold other lolita brands though, yes.
The attached image is circa 2004, iirc.

Question: i have a Baby shirring princess dress that i believe is like 10 years old, and the lace (and the bustled fabric in the back) looks almost grey? Like it's definitely not white, and its definitely not that kind of buttery ivory color. I'm not sure if there's anything i can do to help it though cause the rest of the dress is red.
I guess I'm wondering if it's age that had caused it or if the dress is just like that? I bought it secondhand for dirt cheap (some of the shirring elastic needed replacing) so I'm not that concerned. I wonder though, because I've seen some older parasols of theirs that look more greyish in tone compared to the ivory parasol i have that's quite yellow in comparison. Anyone have any experience or insight on this?
Pic related is the lace on the dress compared to a white and ivory blouse from them.
>>9028947
If it actually looks like it does in this picture, where it's grey in places but not others and has a blotchy appearance, then it likely had something on it in places (like skin oil) and aged differently in some places than in others.
I'm not sure how to clean it; a lot of antique lace cleaning methods use a quilt soap with sodium lauryl sulfate and hot water, but I don't know how well that will work on a red dress.
>>9029013
All the lace is of a similar color. Even the lace on the exterior of the dress, like on the skirt that doesn't typically come into contact with skin oils.
>>9029023
ah, I don't know then. I had a cutsew that was pretty old, but the lace on it wasn't grey tinged, sorry :(
