Hello from Cosplay Oneesan!
As the days quickly pass, we are getting increasingly more excited about seeing all of the fans at Yumemiru Musical Paradise and are sure that Angelic Pretty and Kokusyoku Sumire share our sentiments.
Today's issue is the first where Oneesan is able to share with fans some of the insider information regarding limited edition prints and goods!
But before we begin --
Random fun fact: On August 8, 2007, as Angelic Pretty was being considered an Oneesan-hosted guest for last year's Pacific Media Expo, Angelic Poodle -- the Angelic Pretty LiveJournal community -- had only 481 members. Today, the list has expanded to over 950 members attesting to the brand's growing popularity abroad!
The Best Band Tees & More!
As many lolitas know, Yumemiru Musical Paradise marks the debut of musical duo Kokusyoku Sumire in the United States. To celebrate the collaboration of Angelic Pretty and Kokusyoku Sumire, Oneesan is excited to release a sneak peek of the special print created just for this event! (Even we were super excited to see this!)
Tired of your basic band tee?
Angelic Pretty and Kokusyoku Sumire come to the rescue with stylish limited edition 'band tee' cutsews, tote bags, pins and more featuring this monochromatic print! (We hear that they've made a consideration for Western sizes, too!)
This collaboration design features a more elegant interpretation of Angelic Pretty's style with Sachi and Yuka of Kokusyoku Sumire atop carousel horses. Angelic Pretty tells us that this print will only be available in the U.S. for its initial release... Now another reason to see Sachi & Yuka's performance on Sunday, November 9th!
Custom One-of Goods
Rumor has it that your basic Angelic Pretty merchandise won't be the only items filling shelves in the Magical Boutique...
In addition to some limited edition custom-made Angelic Pretty goods, Sachi may also be bringing a handful of handcrafted wares and accessories that promise to not only accessorize your wardrobe, but also become collector's items!
Little Tokyo At A Glance
One of the best parts about this year's venue at the Kyoto Grand Hotel is its proximity to convenient restaurants, various shops and other points of interest. Because guests can simply cross the foot bridge from the Hotel to Weller Court, there are several options for meals and shopping.
The Fashion Show/Concert breaks for intermission between 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM for set and seating changes; this is the perfect time to grab a quick bite before returning for the rest of the show!
General Admission Boutique Access
To clarify, the $65 general admission (GA) tickets will have priority entrance over non-ticketholders in the Magical Boutique on Saturday, Nov. 8, 2008. GA ticketholders, please see the schedule for the specific time window to take advantage of this opportunity!
Remember that the Magical Boutique is free to enter, but there is priority for VIP passholders and GA ticketholders.
Event Scheduling
To address concerns about the event's scheduling, the tentative schedule can currently be viewed on our website here.
Thank you for reading the second issue of On the road to Yumemiru Musical Paradise! Our next issue will reveal some behind-the-scenes work required to make the event a success every year, as well as information about the American release of Tea Party Shoes! Stay tuned!
