A preview from the small collection Maroon Sparrow Designs showed at Fanime during the Lolita panel. About everything went wrong heading up to the fashion show (of coarse haha) so the collection was a lot different then anticipated but the dresses will be up in our shop soon at a very reasonable price.
We had models cancel the night before, dresses accidentally cut open and ruined beyond repair, funding not show up and about everything else happen that possibly could. The good news was the event went smoothly, a stranger agreed to model last minute and did a great job, and our funding ($500 from the young business competition) finally showed up two days ago! With the funding we should have our website up soon and we can finally get started on our real collection!
We would like to thank you all for the support and more then 100 followers on tumblr. We really appreciate it and will work hard to bring you amazing products.
Also if you will be at Fanime 2012 please come to the Lolita panel and indie designer fashion show. All the designers are very talented so it should be a great event. Learn more about it here: CLICK
Most of this batch of sweet cake hats have sold out but the new batch is up on our shop here: Click
The hats are made of card bored, felt and paint with a strong clip so they can be worn easily in your hair or wig.

Hey everyone! I entered in a small business owners competition in my home town and all I need from you is to “Like” the video to vote! I have a really good chance and have worked so hard on my entry! Seriously, I have put so much time into this! I make hand painted Lolita and vintage inspired dresses and felt cake hats. Thanks for you time!
