I really love prints that have a retro vibe, such as Fantasic Dolly, French Doll, Dressy Rose and so many more! I sometimes wish my wardrobe was only filled with retro themed dresses! So when Mademoiselle de Paris was released it was love at first sight! I hesitated a bit about the colour, because (and that's pretty rare!) I think I liked all the different colourways. I first wanted the pink one, but in the end I went for the white one as it looked more mature and was the only one to have red hints. The other colourways have pink details, which make them softer while I think the white colourway look more bold and contrasted!
Mademoiselle de Paris JSK in white! |
I wasn't so sure about the poodles at first as, as I already mentionned it on this blog, I usually dislike animals prints. But I think they are really discreet and don't stand out more than the other elements. Poodles are definitely not the main point of the print, they're just part of it. So all in all I think the print is really well balanced and also makes me realize that I really prefer all-over prints over border prints.
Isn't this print super gorgeous? ♥ |
My favourite detail ♥ |
You can't really tell but the bottom lace features tiny poodles! How cute ♥ |
I also bought the matching socks! |
I already have an outfit in mind for this JSK: a red beret, a black blouse with a bow tie, the matching socks, black rocking horse shoes and maybe some black gloves to complete the perfect retro look! I hope I'll have some time this week to try this on!
Do you like this print? Did you also get it? In which colour and how will you coordinate it?
Let me know! :)

I'm not a fan of poodles (in real life and in Lolita prints), but I agree that they work here and are very subtle. It's a dress that I can look at, though I wouldn't get it myself, and I really enjoyed all the detail shots you posted. The coord you have planned out for it sounds great too (I'd add some more red, maybe litle bits through jewellery, just to balance it out), can't wait to see it! :D

Thanks for your comment, I'm glad you liked the pictures :)
DeleteOf course, I'll add some red accessories and also some pearls too to make something well balanced and elegant! I would love to use a red bag too or maybe red shoes instead of the rocking horse? I think I think I can pull out many different combination with this dress!
Red bag would be so good, I was thinking about a red ring as well. It's definitely a versatile piece, you could do so, so much with it!
