.
All tickets are non-refundable.
Example of Appropriate Attires:
- Classic Lolita, Sweet Lolita, Wa-Lolita, Elegant Gothic Lolita, Elegant Gothic Aristocrat, Kodona & Dandy are welcomed. You may dress in whichever gender you may identify with.
- Although Angelic Pretty is a Sweet Lolita brand, you are not required to attend the Brunch in Sweet Lolita, though it is highly encouraged.
- Confident about your skills? You are welcome to wear your own creations. Just make sure that you follow the guidelines.
- Skirt Length - Should be no less than 20 inches from your natural waist to the hem of your skirt. Your outer skirt should not be your petticoat.
- Makeup - Your makeup should be natural and minimal. Please refrain from a smeared, runny or mime look. This includes excessive white powdering. Lipstick should be complimentary to your attire and avoid the usage of black or blue colors.
- Black Tie attire is appropriate for the observer tier, as well as press. They will be seated in a specially designated location.
- If you or your attending significant other is not Lolita, one may dress in classic White Tie attire.
- Ceremonial military uniforms are also allowed for active/retired members with appropriate credentials of the armed forces.

- Casual Lolita - Certain cutsews are not appropriate in this formal setting. If in doubt, please e-mail the Lolita Hostess with your photo.

- Fruits/Decora - While they are colorful, this is a formal setting.
- Ero - The ‘Brothel’ look does not work either. Please make sure your outfit for all styles is modest.
- Guro - We're trying to eat, not vomit.
- Themed Coordinates (Includes maids, ‘Alice’s,’ cat-eared Lolitas, etc.) - While Angelic Pretty has designed various themed sets in the past including all of the abovementioned, the Fashion Brunch is a formal event. Themed coordinates with a costume-like tone walk a fine line with cosplay. (However, please feel free to wear your themed coordinates on another day of the convention!)
- Cosplay - This is not a cosplay event; it is a fashionable event. All cosplay ensembles are inappropriate. This includes but is not limited to:
- Purposely replicating characters and their respective outfits from ‘Kamikaze Girls’ (Shimotsuma Monogatari)
- Purposely replicating Angelic Pretty themed coordinates (such as those in their advertising and print campaigns) in a cosplay-like style/manner
- Cat ears/animal ears/Chii ears/Naruto headbands/wings
- All props and weapons
- Dollfies, Dolls, & Toys - Due to the limited space and liability involved, all dolls and toys will not be allowed at the Fashion Brunch.
Again, if you are unsure if your outfit is appropriate for the Brunch, please feel free to send a photo of your outfit to the e-mail address listed above.
Code of Conduct:
- Seating will be assigned to each guest on an individual basis. Seat swapping is not allowed.
- Camera Policy - No portrait photos are allowed. However, you may take photos from your seat. Please do not try to disturb other guests, as well as the guest of honor by being too conspicuous.
- Autograph Policy - Asking for autographs at the Fashion Brunch is strictly prohibited, as there will be other opportunities to obtain them such as at the panel. You will be escorted out promptly.
- Cell phone, PDA & other communication devices should be set to ‘silent.’ If you must communicate using your device, please excuse yourself from the party.
- Outside food and drinks are prohibited.
