AND WE'RE BACK!
And we are showing off our new spring wardrobe, featuring the brand new Gothic Lolita Blouse pattern from Jinjia Mixed Goods. This pattern has been months in the making, and is the very first pattern in our Gothic Lolita wardrobe.
It's a super versatile blouse pattern, with so many different variations:
- 2 blouse lengths (long and peplum)
- 4 blouse fronts
- 4 collar styles
- 8 sleeve styles
- Optional corset back lacing
If you're counting, that's 256 different blouses in one pattern.
Get it at our etsy store here: Gothic Lolita Blouse Pattern. Use the code JMG10TH until May 10 for a 10% off $5 or more.
Kana and Lily are the models for the detailed blouse pictures. First up, the peplum blouse with corset back lacing.
Kana's blouse has giant puffed sleeves with lots of lace insertion, a pointed collar, and a simple front (to counteract all the lace on the sleeves...).
The best thing about lolita style is just how much trim you can put on one blouse. If there's a seam, there's trim. Best trims include 1/2" lace, flat or ruffled and tiny braids.
Lily's blouse is the opposite: a super complicated blouse front, with very simple straight sleeves and a standup collar. The sleeve also has lace insertion, and the blouse front has trim at almost all the seams.
We don't know about you, but lace insertion is just so fun and easy, and makes anything look elegant.
Next up: the long blouse variant with a plain back. The corset lacing is for adjusting fit, since AG seems to be changing doll sizes with every production run.
This blouse definitely the classic blouse with a Peter Pan collar and (for the human) minimal ruffles and lace. Just tiny ruffles at the front placket and around the collar. It's good for a mid-century look.
But there's also the flared/bell sleeve, if you want something a tad more 70s.
I love it!
