Angelic Pretty Strawberry Doll Coord for Spring
Angelic Pretty's Strawberry Doll might not be a crowd favourite among AP's Strawberry print dresses, but it's the ultimate all-rounder for me - perfect for cafe hopping, fancy dinners, or even frolicking in the park. Plus it's subtle and comfortable enough for travel and works well for dressy events like a work buffet (minus the twin tails, of course!) Anyone else out there have a favourite underrated print?

Dress: Angelic Pretty Castle Mirage Princess-sleeve dress
Bonnet: Ada handmade
Shoes: Bouquet Baccio
I absolutely adore the fairytale castle print on this Angelic Pretty Castle Mirage Princess-sleeve Dress! I hope I can wear it to Disneyland some day. That said, it's not the most comfortable dress for walking around. I wore two petticoats for this, a hoop one and a tulle one. Oh well, it's fun to dream. 😅 Not many accessories this time as it was quite a spontaneous decision to wear it.
I got this dress on Xianyu in 2020 because the price was a bargain. I was a complete newbie to the platform then, and I was touched by the seller’s kindness. They not only agreed to deal with a foreigner with a 3-no account (no feedback, no transaction, no reputation) but also stayed calm and patient when I had trouble with the payment. 😂 I’ve done many Xianyu transactions since then and met some impatient sellers even when I know how to pay smoothly, but this one’s warmth and understanding still stays with me.

BABY, the Stars Shine Bright - Genoise OP (2004)

The production studio at "Baby, the Stars Shine Bright" featured in an episode of Tokyo Fashion Express. Their designs typically require up to 50 sewing patterns, which is about 5 times as many as the average dress. Detailed notes on measurements and specifications are written for the sewing factory.
The sewing factory is in Ibaraki prefecture. For more than 20 years they've been sewing clothes exclusively for BTSSB. 17 people work there, most of them being veterans age 60 or over. Due to the complexity they work in teams for ironing, sewing lace and ribbons, as well as completing gathers and frills.
The manager of the factory, Sumiko Watahiki, says in an interview:
"There's tons of gather, lace, and layering, which requires a lot of sewing. At first, I doubted I could do it! It was that hard. (But) I'm always impressed with the adorable designs when I see the finished products or while I work."
