For my first Lolita dress, I was thinking of some sort of Alice-like outfit, with a regular dress and a pinafore, and I've been all over the Butterick and Simplicity sites and such and haven't found anything I can really use.

I found some old doll patterns, and I'm making a somewhat mini version of the dress I want, not exactly, but it'll give you a basic idea. ((I'll post pictures soon))

So, are there some patterns hiding amongst the major pattern retailers or to I have to buy them somewhere else? Or do some serious alterations?

I've also looked for jumper dresses or apron dresses, because those are pretty much the American way of saying them, but I've only found modern looking things.

You can always take a modern-looking piece and "lolitize" it 3nodding
