This small business spotlight is for a store on Etsy called Kawaii Dress Shop.
There are plenty of "official" Harry Potter dresses but this store adds a level of creativity to their designs that I haven't seen in the mass merchandised offerings.
Some of my favorite dresses are in this store and I'm excited to share them with you. I bought one of there dresses and can personally attest to the quality of them, and I'm looking forward to adding more to my wardrobe. I also love how many compliments I get by people in the wizarding world fandom when I wear it.

Here is an example of a review for Kawaii Dress Shop:
As I stated above, I have bought a dress from this shop, the chocolate frog dress. I was a bit worried about what size to order so I contacted the store and one of the owners told me that the size charts included with each article of clothing are accurate. I was still nervous because there are no returns but my fears were for nothing. I followed the size chart perfectly and the dress, in turn, fits perfectly. I HIGHLY recommend that you use the size charts if you order clothing from them.
Oh! One more thing. Many of the items sold by Kawaii Dress Shop also have matching accessories. If you want an accessory but don't see it in your desired style, then contact the store owners because chances are good that they can make what you want. That's one of the benefits of a print on demand store like this one.
