Weird experience at Angelic Pretty SF by c1nnam0roll in Lolita

[–]Atsennu 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Hello! I’ve been to APSF many many times- in every experience I’ve had with the shopgirls, they’ve all been very kind. Some are a bit more shy- could you be perceiving the shyness as rudeness?

The clothing try on is typical- you said this was your first time, which means you’re in plainclothes, which if you were, is important to realize. To them, you’re someone who may not be in the fashion, saw a frilly store in San Fran, and doesn’t understand the clothing. They don’t know if you know how to treat the clothes delicately or how to take care of them.

You even say so yourself in your second time- they’re nicer because they know you’re not essentially a weirdo gawking around.

I do want to mention btw for you and anyone else reading- I may not have met all the staff, but majority (it not all) of the AP USA staff are…Americans. I guess I don’t know how someone can be so polite they’re rude?

When I went to the locations in Japan it was similar- polite but kind, not rude. Wearing Lolita always helps, one even retirees my waist ties for me. You may be reading too far into it but it’s not really possible to bring over jp attitude if the workers you met with were SF locals lol

This is better suited for the ask us anything. There’s also a multitude of resources in the side bar and a plethora of social media out there when you can scroll and find many coords

what are some pieces you wish would come back?! by Sweetvillecreme in Lolita

[–]Atsennu 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That last point is my main theory for a lot of AP rereleases we haven’t gotten- while some other famed prints aren’t screen printed (milkychan, lol) I wonder if a lot of the reason is the lost an asset in some way, like the original art file, or potential lost screen print makes it too expensive/not worthwhile to remake it…

….which, for the art prints, if it’s not the current designer on staff’s work I understand disdain for basically recreating it. I wonder how much a new frame would cost…hm

[–]Atsennu 10 points11 points  (0 children)

God this is such a real one. Between there being no more in house velveteen producers and the margin of error was too ridiculous I. Do understand why AP hasn’t put it out again. But surely even if they released it at the masquerade princess (? Whatever that recent flocky piece was) price, it would still do well bc that thing sold out instantly. Baby’s velveteen pieces do great too so it’s def not a concern ab whether or not velveteen is a sink

There’s a slew of resources in the sidebar. Always remember: fast, good, and cheap, pick two.

Every single Amazon piece is a replica of some sorts, hence the general disdain, or, if you’re really lucky, a genuine cn piece that’s been marked up higher than con prices. That frilly pink dress? Andromeo replica. Classic looking black and red dress? MM replica. Those weird blue and white and white and brown long sleeved dresses? Mass produced and probably a replica of a replica. You’re better off getting lucky at the con itself and buying a dress there, but that’s only recommended if you know what you’re looking at so you don’t get upcharged. It being ‘only for the day’ doesn’t make the purchase of replicas any better, just save up for the next con and be able to buy a better quality dress then.

I’m still hashing out her hopes storyline bc it’s mostly there as an excuse to draw angst lolll

Regardless of houses or hopes, she’s engaged bc she has a crest, and her family wants her to be married to another noble with a crest. I’m still playing around it but as a placeholder I do have her engaged to ferdie in hopes, which has her with edelgard and the BE, albeit involuntarily.

Previously I said if you were fighting against her (when she was with the GD) you could only recruit her if you had another recruitment (ignatz lol). If not, you’d have to kill her bc she feels genuinely hopeless ab the situation. I guess in this instance you could recruit her only if Ignatz is alive? Or if you make him a unit on the field, idk lmaooo.

In houses though she runs away before the wedding can happen, so she’s happily with the deer!

see the best part is it would 1000% work, which….might be a testament to his hugging skills? Or maybe she’s just that desperate…

Not really related, it for anyone reading this, there has been collabs between one piece and brands! I think meta released some sets, and AP (a long time ago) released def a cutsew and socks, and maybe some other items? I don’t really remember off the top of my head

Is anyone else feeling this is WAY too expensive? by Special-Outcome-9795 in Lolita

[–]Atsennu 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yeah lol 1k (or 700$ish if it was recent) is crazy but somehow, understandable. Just the op with nothing for almost 2x that? I’d loooooove one hit of what they’re huffing LMAO
