Thank you to the cute lolitas who talked to me... they're all so cute...

And we also held the cloakroom, which was well received last time.
Before you know it, you'll find yourself having more luggage in both hands...!
We hope you enjoy the event comfortably as much as possible.
・Sales booth
The selling area is the main area for this event!
The appeal of this is that you can talk directly with the owners and artists of each brand.
Thankfully, the number of exhibitors increases with each event being held, and this time we have a winning ratio of about 2.5 times...!
It's a shame there's no bigger venue in Harajuku, but there are many unique brands lined up in the space.
This time too,Gothic and Lolita There were many brands exhibiting at the market for the first time, so I'm sure everyone had many new encounters.
Gothic, nostalgic, classical, sweet lolita, prince...etc
Item types include accessories, clothes, tableware, watches, miscellaneous goods, etc.
Many people stop walking every booth because they're all so wonderful things, and run out of time...!
I haven't seen it much yet! Those who said that, they also entered the next section again, and the venue was always bustling from Parts 1 to 3.
Below we will introduce some of the brands exhibited at the sale booth.
