Communication: 5/5
Very prompt responses. The transaction was extremely smooth and production of the actual petticoat was lightning fast!
Shipping time: 5/5
The shipping was even quick for basic international shipping! It was shipped from the UK to the USA in about 10 days.
Shipping packaging: 4/5
A plastic bag but no other form of additional inside packaging for the petti. I was lucky that nothing punctured the bag while it was in-transit and that I was very careful cutting it open. For those who are expecting petticoat commissions from her - BE VERY CAREFUL if you are cutting open the bag. Nothing was damaged however! It's hard to "break" clothing but to puncture or rip would be a different matter.
Petticoats are well-priced, well-made and have a good amount of poof to them. I commissioned a 4-level petti with an 18-inch length. No additional lace for the layers. She offered many points of customization from where the tulle starts (at waistband or lower), to decorative tulle to lace on the individual layers. She also offers custom lengths and additional layers if desired for a la carte fees.

Lining (I don't know why the pic keeps uploading all weird)
Well-constructed. Straight neat seams. Smooth cotton-y material.

For those who requested, worn photos.
Flat & blah POOF! The waistband is right around where the skirt portion of the JSK is gathered. For an extra cupcake-y poof. This jsk is a bit long so if I wear the petti lower on my waist/a little above my hips, it makes a more A-line shape. The petti is worn around my hip area and gives more poof around the hem/less around the gathered area of the JSK. Again, worn near the portion where the skirt is gathered into the waist band - petti waistband is about an inch lower than the skirt waistband.
If you need a well-made petticoat for a reasonable price or just starting to build your Lolita wardrobe, I would DEFINITELY recommend ririnhime for petticoat commissions. Great value for a great pric
