A dapper young man on his way to see someone. Who’s that bouquet for…?

Currently coording Symphony Heart One Piece by Angelic Pretty. This was the only release of 2023 by AP that really pulled my heart and reminded me of "old" AP. I fell in love with the heart design with lace trim. The fabric is 100% cotton and very soft. The bow placements didn't seem overwhelming to me and the shirred back is sooo comfortable to wear. The shoulder part is also shirred. Its an overall quality dress. angelic pretty really ate with this one ᰔ

BABY's lace details is one of my favorite things

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."
