Image Heavy.
I thought I would post photos of some of the dresses I have recently received :)
Also thought I would put out there that I have edited/ updated my post on my
Magie Astres Jsk by Dark box.. I wanted to post better pictures and finally did so.
.....
The ordering process was very easy, I decided I would like to have the autumn flowers jsk and since she was having a sale I decided to also get Magical Landscape too. I had ordered from Lady Sloth once before, the Victorian Music Angels jsk. While there was a big flaw with my cherub jsk, the zipper hadn't been sewn in properly.. the dress was high quality and very beautiful (I'm a sucker for prints). I decided to try again for better luck purchasing these dresses. The Victorian Music Angels dress Review/Photos are last, they are also the oldest.
The dresses came quickly, the quality of them are wonderful, especially the autumn flowers jsk. I'm very happy with them.
1. Autumn Flowers Jsk Review..
the first photos is of the Autumn flowers jsk.
I decided to go with white chiffon at the bottom of the dress instead of the original Black. I'm happy I made that choice..
The print is beautiful, the fabric is silky..
The back is beautiful, I love the shirring. The white lacing matches the white chiffon too.
It's lined nicely:
Sometimes hard to zip up.
Autumn Flowers worn:
(without petticoat)
(with a petticoat)
(with petticoats)
(the back)
Fit: 5/5 It looks amazing on, and fits perfectly.
Construction: 4.5/5 The zipper is the only fault.
Quality: 4.5/5 the fabric and print are a tad grainy looking, can't tell unless I'm up close.
The fabric is very smooth and silky.
14/15 Overall! (14/15)
2. Magical Landscape Jsk Review:
This dress was chosen because I love brown, I love prints, and I love sales.
The fabric is a strange cloth type of fabric, but it's comfortable to wear. The print is very pretty:
I wanted the pretty pointed lace like what was shown in her first album for the dress on facebook.
Lady sloth told me that she didn't have any and sent this instead. I don't really mind, though It would have been nice.
This lace is nice quality and soft:
You can also see more of the fabric texture in this photo:
The dress is unlined, I find that wearing petticoats under, it bunches up often and sticks to the cloth fabric.
I have a very nice under-dress that looks fine underneath and stops the petticoat from bunching so I am not too bothered.
The shirring is pretty but not very necessary with how stretchy the fabric is :P
The zipper again, It isn't easy to zip up at all, This seems to be a thing with all Lady Sloth dresses.
I also prefer zippers that zip all the way to the top, like Autumn flowers zipper :)
Magical Landscape worn:
(without petticoat)
(with petticoats)
(with under-dress and petticoat)
Fit: 5/5
Construction: 4/5 I'm not happy with the zipper.
Quality: 4/5 unlined fabric and strange fabric to use for a dress, but everything else is great :)
13/15 overall. (13/15)
Victorian Music Angels Jsk:
This dress is one of my favorites in my collection of 214923+ dresses. Unfortunately I'm afraid to wear it.
I received this long before the other dresses but thought I'd review it now since I'm reviewing other dresses from Lady Sloth.
The package:
the silk is amazing, the print is beautiful. There is shimmer in the material.
one of a few flaws I met with is there's a dent in the velvet bodice:
it is pretty hard to capture on camera but very noticeable in person.
seams around the zipper were coming undone I never took a picture of it and had it fixed as soon as I saw it but I was still pretty disappointed with that. Again the zipper is not easy to do up at all, it is very hard to fit clothing underneath and do it up.
wearing the dress:
Fit: 4/5 a bit small around the bust
Construction: 3/5 The seams near the zipper undoing and the zipper itself put me off everything else was constructed well.
Quality: 4/5 The silk is nice and the velvet is beautiful..but the dent in the velvet...
11/15 Overall. (11/15)
After wearing the dress a few times the silk has started to show signs of pulling. I am very careful when wearing it because I know how delicate silk is. I'm just wondering if anyone on egl knows if there is any way to make the flaws on the silk look better?
This is the damage,
Thankfully it is hard to see with the print. But I am too worried to wear it or even take it out of the dress bag it's in.
Lady Sloth accessories:
4/5 Some of the accessories have glue globs on the back.
Feel free to ask questions or make comments :)
