As soon as I laid eyes on this dress, I knew I had to have it. As you can probably tell from my website, I am a fungi fanatic! They've fascinated me ever since I was a little girl. When Lily of the Valley Designs opened for preorders, I jumped on it right away and haven't regretted since.

Mushrooms are an underrated motif in lolita, but is this mushroom print of my dreams. I adore the watercolor illustrations, and the Latin writing in it. It really does feel like the journal of a naturalist in the Victorian area, honestly!

The owner of Lily of the Valley Designs, Tyler, has been a lolita for a few decades, and that's reflected in the cut of the dress. Full back shirring for comfort, full sized pockets for convenience. The sewing is immaculate as well, and the lace choices are gorgeous too.

Everything by Lily of the Designs is totally my style. It's really fortunate that a brand like it exists, so I try to support the releases I love by buying them directly! Everything's a dream! ;u; And on that note, I'm BUZZING about my Herb Gaden preorder...!
