#l358

, Gawens.

I think you're totally overthinking it. There are plenty of dresses that everyone knows are from Bodyline but most people don't care. As long as the dress is good quality (which that one does appear to be), is Lolita (which that one is), and is coordinated well, most Lolitas aren't going to care whether you're wearing Bodyline or not.

You’re the anon wanting a dress for school right? I like 255 the best. The print would be easy to coordinate because you can find cherry, ribbon, and heart things everywhere, and you wouldn’t have to worry about buying a blouse for it so you would be saving money that you can spend elsewhere in the coord.358 would be my second choice because I think it would be easy to wear in and out of Lolita. Polkadots are pretty versatile so you could wear it out of Lolita and then build a coord around it when you’re ready to dive full on into Lolita. 

I don’t think it has a lot of extra bust space. It seems to be good enough quality, but I found a sales post for it where the seller’s bust measurement was only three cm larger than Bodyline’s given measurements for the M size and they were selling it or trading it for a larger size because of it. I think you would be better off getting the 2L and just having it taken in if necessary rather than getting the M and finding out it’s too small.

I think it's cute in all the colors. The purple is my favorite but that's my favorite color in general so I'm a little biased.
