I own several lolita dresses and this one is surprisingly well-made. The seams are clean, the ruffles are evenly gathered, and the print is crisp. The short sleeves are perfect for autumn and spring. I sized up to a medium for a looser fit and it's very comfortable. The cardigan piece is attached, not separate, which I didn't realize but I like it.

Unique and well made
I've been looking for a gothic punk lolita dress that isn't too costumey, and this is it. The white and brown palette is neutral enough to wear out, and the bear detective print is a fun conversation starter. The fabric has a slight stretch and the cardigan ruffles give it a nice silhouette. I'm between sizes and went with the larger one, no regrets.

So many compliments!
Wore this to a convention and got stopped for photos at least five times. The ruffle cardigan design is genius, it looks like a layered outfit without the bulk. The bear detective motif is subtle enough for everyday but still stands out. I'm 5'4" and 130 lbs, the small fit perfectly. Shipping was fast too.

Perfect for daily wear
This dress is everything. The gothic punk lolita style is spot on and the white and brown colorway is surprisingly versatile. I've worn it with chunky boots and with tea parties. The short sleeves make it wearable in summer, and I can layer a blouse under it for colder days. Fabric is decent quality for the price.

Adorable and comfy
The bear detective design is even cuter in person. It's a bit quirky but that's why I love it. The dress is lightweight and breathable, great for summer. I wore it to a picnic and it was comfortable all day. The bowknot stays tied and the ruffles don't itch. I'm 5'7" and the length hits just above the knee, which is perfect.

Cute but runs small
I really love the bear detective print, it's so unique and the ruffles are adorable. The cardigan part is a bit thin, so I wouldn't wear it in deep winter, but it's great for spring and fall. I'm usually a medium and ordered a large based on other reviews, and it fits perfectly. The bowknot is a little floppy but I can fix it.

My new favorite dress
I was worried the white would be see-through, but it's fully lined where it matters. The bowknot detail at the neck is well-sewn and doesn't sag. I've washed it twice on gentle and it's held up great. The ocelot tag made me laugh but the dress itself is elegant. Works for all seasons with the right layering.
