AP *is* the reason behind it. Here is the original ballgown release from way back when. The old post on egl shitting on the length of the dress (among other problems) is probably still up one livejournal somewhere. The general consensus seemed to be that it looked too much like a ballgown and not lolita with the skirt actually hitting the floor.

>>10042149 and >>10042077 are ankle length. The middle and left dresses in >>10042041 actually reaches the floor. The dress on the right actually does not, you’re way too careless picking your dresses. We're lolitas after all, we debate the difference between your skirt being two fingers above your knees (ideal) and being halfway up your thighs (trashy), how are people expecting us to completely gloss over the differences between ankle-length dresses and floor-length dresses? Of course it's a huge deal whether a dress is ankle length or floor length. How are you going to debate the importance of quality on a 1-inch strip of lace when you don't even care that one dress is a whopping 10+cm longer than the other and hits your body at difference places?

>>10042077 is even the same model as >>10042041, showing you that the dress being ankle length vs being floor length is intentional and not just the model being short (I feel like if she's simply too short they wouldn't show her full height anyway, so I think it's intentional to show you the dress is really long).

Expensive. The Crystal Princess Dress set (pic related) is about $17502.50. It's the only one I can find a price for - the other two were just random searches so I don't know the names.

But hey, like I said, shiro coords can be perfect for a wedding, so you wouldn't be spending /quite/ that much.
