Or would they avoid it to prevent from taking a hit and backlash to their brand?
Are there enough pony princesses to play pretend and have them be Lolita representatives without reaching toward the Japanese fashion style?
I can't understand WHY ponies. That belongs on an actual fashion doll. Licca, Jenny, Barbie, Pullip. It's so niche, and I don't think kids are into it. Thats really territory for someone to make customs and sell them within the community.
I mean, I like both..but it's niche + niche. So that's why I said that would be custom territory. I feel like the wider talking point is what could a fashion line for MLP look like.. which would encompass more then one narrow set of fashion. Right? And also, I don't see why it needs to be specifically Takara either (besides, of course, I know you really adore them). It's not there wasn't pony fashion for the normal ponies. ETA: I wouldn't be opposed to all kinds of fashion for my girls.

ETA: I wouldn't be opposed to all kinds of fashion for my girls. I mean there have been lolita inspired playline dolls. Ever After High frequently dipped into lolita fashion and there were the Shibajuku Girls and Cutie Pops as well as others. They just never specifically called the style lolita.Tbh the thing I'd want is Takara HQG1Cs. I think most people would snap them up considering how the real ones are out of most people's price ranges.
All the extras would probably put it in a high price range. Bet you could find a talented toy clothes maker to whip you up an outfit or two.

But I think with as many people throwing hundreds and thousands at customs, it wouldn%u2019t be much of an issue for the hardcore people who fall into that niche, maybe?From stalking Takara pics on gramho, I know someone by the name of Shadowonthemoon makes adorable Takara pony clothing...does that count?

So a mass produced option would be appealing to many.
I'm not sure if it would work on ponies themselves. But I think it'd be cute if Hasbro were to collaborate with a lolita fashion brand to make dresses with MLP patterns for humans to wear. As long as they'd make them in larger sizes. Besides the high prices, one of the things stopping me from getting into lolita fashion is that the brand names don't seem to make clothes in my size, since I'm size 16 here in the US... It's a very cute fashion style though, I love all the frills.
