ANGELIC PRETTY ENGLISH ONLINE SHOP: GIANT HAIR BOW ACCESSORIES.

Angelic Pretty Japanese Sweet Lolita fashion, online store.

On March 17, Sweet Lolitas worldwide let out glass-shattering squeals and fell backwards on the couch (one hand lifted to brow) – for it was the day that Angelic Pretty unveiled its English-language website. Now, anyone outside Japan can buy Angelic Pretty products with the click of a mouse. A few caveats: only PayPal is accepted, not all items are available for sale, and you’ll be scratching your head at the “Engrish” instructions on the site.

Giant sweet lolita hair bow and headbands by Angelic Pretty. A cute lace accessory.

Like La Carmina, designers Maki and Asuka are currently obsessed with huge doll-like bows pinned to the head. How many variations can one make on a theme? Brahms had eight “Variations on a Theme by Joseph Haydn”; Mozart managed twelve for “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star” – and Angelic Pretty one-upped both by producing fifteen versions of the giant hair bow.

Six of the bows are attached to headbands and positioned on one side of the head. All of the designs pictured are offered in several colors (usually black, white, red, pink, sky blue). Some have cute patterned fabrics, others are rimmed with lace. The cherry-patterned one with two crocheted cherries in the center is cute overload.

Angelic Pretty large bow on top of head. Sweet Lolita girly fashion brand from Japan.

Nine of the mega-bows sit on top of the head. Gingham, polka dot, and tartan fabrics create variety. Love the one on the bottom right, which has a strand of faux pearls and is secured under the neck with satin ribbon.

Each hair decoration is priced around 3000 yen ($30). Only four of the above are available through Angelic Pretty’s English-language online shop – but perhaps these photos will urge you to grab some fabric and create fifteen more variations!
