Axes Femme Beauty and the Beast JSK
Today, we talk about a different brand on my blog, the Japanese brand Axes Femme. I recently bought the Beauty and the Beast JSK in wine red from Ebay. Like Secret Honey, Axes Femme has an ongoing Disney collection. They release less than Secret Honey but still a few collections during the year. Naturally, I had to get my hands on some of their clothes to try them out.
I bought this dress over Ebay, but you can also order directly from the brand, using a shipping service in Japan, some of the methods I show you in this post apply for Axes Femme too. The collections do sell out, but if you keep an eye on the website, you might be able to catch them in time.
I have no idea from when the Beauty and the Beast collection is, to be honest, I just liked it. Let’s have a look at it!
PS: In my last post I showed you the Secret Honey Harvest Anna Cosplay.
The Beauty and the Beast JSK
First of all, we have a look at the dress in it’s full glory. From the front:

From the side:

And from the back:

Sizing and Closure
This dress has a fully shirred back panel. It fits comfortably up to a size M. There is no zipper, just the shirring that helps you getting it on:

The straps are adjustable in length with three button holes:

Bodice
The bodice has a few nice details. First of all, there is a button placket with ruffles and lace on the center front:

The waistline is accentuated with lace and a ribbon tied into a bow:

The Print
We hace an overall print and a border print on this dress. First of all, the overll print with stripes, roses and the words “a beautiful old tale”:

Then around the hem, we have two different motives that are repeated. The first one shows the rose in the glass, Madame Potine, Tassilo and Cogsworth. There is also an ornament in which we can see Belle:

The second motive shows Belle and the Beast dancing and the castle:

And that is already it for today’s post. I hope you enjoyed the detailed look on this Axes Femme Beauty and the Beast JSK. I thank you for reading and I see you in my next post.
Love,
