Miwitch.com
Has anyone used this website before sucessfully, and if so what is the quality like and are they reliable? I'm ever suspicious of things that take just longer than the paypal limit to arrive having been ripped off by another seller before (although that was with a wig) so I just wanted to see if others had used this site! Hope thats ok to post about :3

I would say she's very reliable, I've purchased from her many times as she's based locally. Quality-wise, stuff from her batch orders from HK/China brands seem to be pretty decent, especially for their price. As for her commissions, I am currently commissioning some items from her, but from what my friends have gotten, it also seems to be of good quality.

I would definitely recommend her.

Hope this helped ^-^

Very helpful thanks! I mean for the price im not expecting mega quality I just wanted to check if anyone posted back a very negative response really, especially about items not turning up or something XD I'm really excited about it I didnt know it existed until someone posted a few posts down ^^

You seemed to know a lot about miwitch...! Have you bought clothes from the line Infant / infanta before? What is the quality? (and what is the currency that they quote?)

Yeah I have. The quality is good, they don't use cheap lace and stuff but the material can be a bit thin for the summer stuff at times. ^^;

The currency is in Singapore dollars... Check out a currency conversion website.

@__@ So you mean to tell me that these dresses are 72-100 dollars AND good looking/nice fitting?

^^ Yep, labour is cheap in China. (Like I've said plenty of times before, but goodness knows why most of the populace here refuses to believe the downright cheapness lol.)

I've only bought a headdress and a pannier from her but they're of excellent quality, and after 2 years the pannier is still very poofy despite losing some of its poofiness. (It holds up my velveteen onepiece pretty well.) The headdress is also very well made, uses good materials and gorgeous.

She has great customer service as well, and she understands English better than most HK/China lolita sellers... (It's a Singapore thing to be bilingual XD;) so I definitely recommend her.

Okay, so I'm putting these prices through my converter Singapore dollars are SGD right? And shipping for a dress with registered mail is only $3.77?!
How long does shipping take?

Yes it's SGD! I'm not sure about the price for registered mail... That seems a little low so I'm assuming it's for local mail and not international~ I'm navigating the new layout out right now but it doesn't work very well for Firefox. Maybe you could c/p what it says to me?

Registered mail from Singapore to USA in my experience takes 1 - 2 weeks, though in rare cases can take 3 weeks. I've never had anything lost through registered mail though ^^

Yes that's in SGD, but the prices are for local mail only.

I would estimate about 10 USD for international mail if its one cotton dress packed in a bubble envelope, registered. This is just a rough estimate though.

I think you can order custom size for the dresses in the site, but not for pre-order batch order items... I'm not sure if she charges extra though.

It's like a group order for specific items... their sizing is really tiny though o_o;

Wow that's awesome! Do you know if she makes the dress styles in different colors than the ones featured in the pictures?

I'm sure her tailor could do it but it might cost more. You should send her an email to ask. ^^

Thats a relief to be honest because I love a couple of her dresses and they are probably cheap enough for me to afford 2 =D thanks for the reply! ^^

I was wondering about them too! I'm still clueless as to the ordering though, but I wonder how they are with custom sizes? *Curse being a fatty-chan!*

I think in the page that you place an order you can ask for custom size
