It seems that Steampunk Lolita as a substyle gets more and more popular. Not least with Alice and the Pirates' release of
Clockwork Aristokitty (
on lolilibrary) in May 2013 it seems like the brands are getting interested in the new substyle.

AatP: Clockwork Aristokitty |
Now
Metamorphose Temps de Filles jumps on that band waggon, too, by releasing their new series "
The Wheel of time".
Normally I don't post about brand releases but this one is so damn beautiful, I have to share it!
The
reservation starts on March 7th, 2014, 18.30, Japanese time.

The print is as steampunk-y as it can be without including steam engines itself: clocks and watches as a border, together with different smaller keys, then at the bottom a meandering line of gears and cogs, topped by the writing "Metamorphose" consisting of gears, keys and ornaments itself (see picture at the bottom). In the background you can see a map. It will be availible in three colourways.
There will be a onepiece, three JSKs (one more like a jacket) and two skirts (one is the chiffon underskirt for the aforementioned JSKs, the other is a high-waisted one).

Look at the writing!

The skirt part can be opened with a zipper!
(If you look close at the first picture, you can see them at the hem)

Some details of the skirt:
Together with those main pieces go a jacket, a blouse, socks, a half bonnet, a head piece and some ribbons as well as parasols with the same print.

I think this one looks really off, a bit like hanging bunny ears...
Normally I like oldschool rectangular headpieces, but this is a bit to much! Link |
If I had the money, I would get every single piece of that series ^^ All the details, just look at that!
Well, enough of the encomium. What do you think? Do you like Meta's take on Steampunk Lolita? Do you think, that there will be more brands following and release steampunk-y series?
Let me know!
