We attended Frillfest in Gothenburg Sweden. It was my first to visit Gothenburg and I actually really liked the city, it may have been at is best since it was because summer time but non the less it was great weekend.
For the fashion show we had three looks and the models we got portrayed the looks wonderfully! Thank you for modelling for us!
In October 2015 was my first trip to America and I got to be a guest in an amazing alternative fashion event Rufflecon!
The event was great and I enjoyed my stay so much! The organisation stuff was so wonderful and my fairy gothmother took very good care of me during the event! <3
The event concept is a little bit different from European ones as it is three days event and the program lasts till midnight. Everyone stays in the same hotel so it's basically just one big lolita party everywhere! :D I met so many fantastic lolitas there and many many new friends! I hope to meet you all again sometime! <3
If you get a chance I definitely recommend going to Rufflecon and I would absolutely love to go there again myself!
For the fashion show I had a very clear vision in my head and rather than making the focus on individual looks I concentrated on creating the correct atmosphere. I got inspired by Finnish nature, by the dark forests and cold winter nights, and shamanism.
Here's the pics of the fashion show looks by Xin lolita photography and Kyoplay, thank you guys! <3 Our models were just fantastic and they did a great job portraying the characters! I was also really impressed by the work of the make up artists, they really helped alot creating the looks! Thank you everyone! <3
For music I chose Ulla Pirttijärvi's beautiful joik Jaerrat Biekkas, it set the atmosphere perfectly!
Lastly couple of my own outfits! First one is from the fashion show day and second is from the first day of the event.
HelloCon 2014 was held 1st of February and ofcourse we had to participate! :3
I was also part of the organisation team so I can not tell much of the actual convention since I was just running around like crazy the whole day.
At the convention we had a stand and we took part to the designers fashion show.
Here's some pictures of Cloudberry Lady outfits presented at the show:
Here's the video of the full designers fashion show
The outfits we presented were inspired by reneissance. Knowing Midori Fukasawa would be modelling for us we really wanted to greate something different. Also we didn't want to use a print this time, so I came up with this design. For some of the materials we had to travel to Estonia and making the outfits took a lots of work but I think it was worth the time and effort?
Here's the pictures of the outfits from the photocorner of Hellocon:
Noniin, nyt on HelLo con sitten ohi!
Oli kyllä ihan mielettömän mahtava päivä, ohjelma oli mainiota ja väkeä tuli paikalle yli odotusten!
Kuvia tapahtumasta tulee myöhemmin mutta tässä muutama video jonka ystäväni on kuvannut.
HelLo con was a awesome event with lots of high quality program and I had a superp day! A lots of people showed up which made me really happy. Our fashion show went well and the event was very succesfull in every way! Also the Lolita Complex concert was great! <3
Here's few videos that my friend shot at the event.

The first Helsinki lolita convention, HelLo con is

You can get the tickets from here Tiketti
The quest of honor is baby the stars shine bright model
Tocco and her band Lolita Complex!
The band will have a concert after the event! :3
Most of the program will be in Finnish,
but the numerous fashion shows and workshops suit to those who don’t know
the language. Also the Q&A of Lolita Complex will be in english!
Cloudberry Lady on tietenkin
paikalla myymässä ja sen lisäksi järjestää indie brändien muotinäytöksen! Cloudberry
Lady esittelee näytöksessä uutta linjaansa ja lisäksi mukana on aivan
uudenlaisia tuotteita, kuten jalkinesuunnittelija Emma Tsurumoton kanssa
tehdyssä yhteistyössä syntyneet jalkineet! Mukaan saatiin myös ihastuttava
Espanjalainen Must! jonka tuotteita on myös conissa myynnissä!^^
Cristina the owner and designer of Must!
Cloudberry Lady is one of the
sellers at the event and we are also arranging the indie brands fashion show.
At the show we are launching a completely new product range and fantastic
collaboration with footwear designer Emma Tsurumoto! We got the lovely and
brand new Spanish brand Must! join in - they are presenting their new
collection at the show! Must! is one of the vendors as well! :3
Last summer we went to the lolita convention in Paris! First we were just planning to take a selling stand but the organizers asked if Cloudberry Lady could participate to the fashion show too.. ;)
Here's finally some pictures and the video of the show.
Jouluinen Ofelia Market pidettiin Helsingissä pari viikkoa sitten 10-11.12.-11. Cloudberry Lady osallistui tapahtumaan myyjänä sekä myyjien muotinäytökseen neljällä asulla. Aluksi muutamia kuvia Ofelia Marketista ja lopuksi kuvat ja video muotinäytöksestä.
Koska kyseessä oli joulu-ofelia laitoimme pöydän kulmaan valot tuomaan jouluista tunnelmaa. <3
Käyntikortit olivat tällä kertaa talveen sopivan kuparin värisiä, Toni ystävällisesti leikkasi kortit kun ei kotona ehditty. :) Hän myös liimasi timangit kortteihin! :D
Uusien pantsujen printti! Pantsut myivätkin todella hyvin ja jäljelle jäi vain yhdet valkoiset pantsut sinisellä printillä!
Olimme myymässä yläkerran aulassa, vaikka paikka oli huono oli mukavaa kun kerrankin oli istumatilaa riittämiin ja muutkin saattoivat istahtaa jutustelemaan kanssamme!^^
Ofelia Market was held at Helsinki couple weeks back. Cloudberry Lady attended to the event as a seller but we also attended the vendors fashion show on both days with 4 outfits! We brought our brand new bloomers to the event and only one was left to take back home! Above you can see some of the pics taken at the event and below is the shots and video of our part of the show.
Here's Moona with a bit steamy take on the laululintu dress.
Minja looked absolutely stunning on this velvet dress featuring bird-skulls!
Laura wearing a jacket, hat and gloves from our new winter collection. <3
Kati looked like a porcelain doll in this outfit!
This is from the second day, just wanted to show you those leg-thingies since I didn't manage to sew all the buttons to them before the show on first day.
Elina was kind enough to replace Minja on the second day! <3
Here's all the models on stage!
Mielestäni näytös onnistui ehkäpä paremmin kuin mikään muu näytöksemme, olin aivan mielettömän onnellinen näytöksen jälkeen. Kiitos teille kaikille jotka osallistuitte näytöksen järjestämiseen ja iso kiitos myös yleisölle!^^
