Depends on the character

Going by the dates it looks like the coof got him

According to his Twitter, he moved from Australia to the Netherlands in late 2019. After that he just posted a handful of political things. The last one is from October 2022, so I doubt he died of covid like the other anon is implying. Probably got bored of social media during the pandemic and dropped off them like a lot of other people during that time

I still can't believe Pixielocks is actually getting married. surreal

>>10936460
Who's she marrying?

CC really is full of larping trannies. The latest "nigelfag" who then quickly turned around to cry about how "dykes" should get treated like mtfs is so transparent. I hope these faggots stay there once we get our home back.

>>10936461
Their partner Stevie. They've been dating for a very long time. I'm excited for them.

>>10936514

>>10935920
itachi doesn’t have bimbo lips and look like an arab hooker

>>10935964
Weren't those threads about how asians are "way better" than Caucasians at cosplay? I don't think it's the same anon unless we got some sudden character development.

>>10936099
That anon saw the furina cosplay and changed his mind haha

>>10936258
I love it when a polycule implodes. Always hilarious.

>>10936257

>>10936258
Aw, he got dumped?
He seemed like such a nice guy and a real breath of fresh air for the gulls while it lasted.

>>10935997
I have red velveteen in my sewing bin. This is so tempting to dupe.

>>10936054
There she is, I was going to post her. Has she been active lately?

The stuff she makes looks great and it's nice to see someone who isn't diy-ing sweet. But I'm a bit skeptical about the time frame she says it takes her to make stuff. She made a very elaborate and embellished blouse with ruffles, pintucks, gathered lace, etc, iirc. And claimed she made it in one evening. That's extremely doubtful unless she had everything cut, pregathered the lace, marked and interfaced her pattern pieces before starting and even then it's still unlikely considering she still had to make rolled hems and do the gathering.
The other explanation is that the inside of her blouse isn't as neatly finished as it should be. But with her eye for aesthetics I doubt that's the case.

>>10935988
>You don't really see this in Europe or Asia though

Accurate. I don't know anyone who does this in my comm and neighboring comms, or even outside of my country. And we do have cringe weebs with terrible taste. They just buy super sweet Chinese brands. The cosplayers don't mix it either afaik.

>>10935995
It's that they're in our spaces but don't seem to respect the fashion, that's what annoys me. I can understand people who like lolita but don't spend a lot of money and effort on it. But those people don't like actual lolita, they like lolita versions of their favorite characters and shows. They don't want to talk about new releases, coordinating, etc, everything lolitas are interested in.
I'm not mad that they don't go to meets. It's like they have at least enough sense not to do that.
They gather in the online sewing groups, which is one of the things I dislike about the sewing groups.

>>10936118
This shit really needs to be treated as it's own thing. It looks nothing like lolita and has nothing to do with it

>>10935988
I’m in a European comm and we have our fair share of handmade cosplay itas (and even more Taobao cosplay itas) but the worst offenders tend to be cosplayers who’ve decided that the lolita comm is too elitist for them. I have a relative who’s a cosplayer with a big cosplay/nerd friend group who I occasionally hang out with, and they’re always working on fandom ‘lolita coords’ featuring circle skirts with all-over novelty print quilting cotton and mini top hats. Like >>10936191 said, it’s very much its own thing, yet they’re convinced it’s lolita. They know I wear lolita but think I’m the one who’s not doing it properly because I wear toned down classic lmao.
A rare few of them straddle the line between quilting cotton Tardis ‘lolita’ and more generic floral quilting cotton lolita and are smart enough to only post the more conventional ones to the lolita comm and keep the overtly fandom stuff to fandom spaces.
One woman keeps referring to herself as a professional award-winning seamstress because she won some cosplay competition but the only time her handmade lolita actually looks okay is when she copies ONS designs exactly and uses solid fabrics. Whenever they try to be creative or ‘original’, it quickly goes downhill.
I’m not sure why these people keep insisting on calling their stuff lolita and being involved with the lolita community, to be honest. IMO they’d be much happier if they just admitted to being cosplayers who like making fandom-themed vaguely anime ‘lolita’-inspired outfits instead of copying a specific character’s costume. There’s nothing wrong with that. It’s just not lolita fashion.

I’ll start. I’m a classic Lolita and I only have florals or solids, with the exception of IW’s Antique Book skirt because it was cheap. Solids always seemed easier to coord for me because the emphasis would be on the texture and single color, as opposed to finding more accessories that match both the theme and the color shade in a print. I used to be into sweet Lolita and owned Cream Cookie Collection, but I just tore my hair out from trying to find similar accessories.

I don’t mind the florals however, as I hand make many of my own accessories. Dip dyeing fake flowers to match is an oddly calming project. Plus, florals are very nice for spring/summer, which is the time I wear Lolita the most. They’re also the cutest for garden and tea meets, so it’s nice whenever I’m on theme

>>10935707
I will buy any print I can find with horses.

>>10935707
"Prints": floral, fruit, tartan, gingham crowns, a few discreet crosses. No border prints with the exception of two dresses in my closet. I mostly wear solids though.

I'm not a big fan of jewellery but I appreciate jewellery with crowns in them.

lace types: I like woven cotton embroidery lace with roses, strawberries, hearts or crowns. I also like torchon lace but mine don't really have motifs afaik.

Other noticeable recurring things: I have a lot of aprons (especially to wear over floral OPs), some wrap around almost completely. I like textured details such as pin tucks, shirring and frills. I like lace with ribbon threaded through it, and lots of satin bows sprinkled on different areas on the clothes. 2 rows of elastic on the upper arm part of sleeves, elasticated cuffs. Bunny ears attached to bonnets or hoods. Straw bags and head wear to go with solids, florals and gingham.
I do have some casual pieces but my default style is luxurious and embellished.

>>10935707
I'm also a classic lolita. I have many floral prints but I've been trying to find classic themed border prints. so far I've bought that one Mary Magdalene dress with perfume bottles and the matching tote. I've seen some indie brands like L'Esprit de la Noblesse release prints with Victorian era fashion prints on them but they're always out of stock and I've never seen them for sale on the second hand market.

I really love toy prints. Toy fantasy is one of my favorites. I don't really know why. I guess they're just cute and I like the colors.
I also really like fairy tale prints. And prints with moons and stars.
We don't get enough lemon prints imo

Looking fine, lads

i want to fuck the a2

I want to fuck the guy in the middle

>>10936067
I wanna be the guy in the middle as he's being fucked by the guy who wants to fuck the guy in the middle

This is the collab we've been waiting for

Let me guess, you're too broke to afford the new USD 45 4chan Pass and can't post this on >>>/biz/ ? Or you're too retarded to figure out how to post without the pass? Ahh, nvmnd, I figured it out. You're too impatient to wait the 900 seconds to make a new thread over there so you come here to shill your fake reverse 2cute femboy e-girls who are actually just straight girls? knowing very well you can self-bump since this board does not have Poster IDs.

May or may not be the anon from >>10935664 You can't tell or know, there are no Post IDs on this board after all. Whatever your reasoning for posting this on here, I commend it. I can tell you're a smart business(man)(woman)(theyan) and I thank you for providing us with this truly bullish opportunity. Unfortunately most "people" on this board are much too retarded to truly see the potential, but not I. I'm extremely bullish with this and want to get in early before it's too late. How do I profit from this?

Uh huh

>he doesn't know about the fagstaff incident
lol I wish I had the same ignorance as you, it must be blissful

>>10936397
>the fagstaff incident
My newblood ignorance probably isn't as blissful as you'd hope because we have our own happenings we really wish we didn't know about!

>>10936398
I wish our drama was that level to warrant something on par with ALA.
Ours is
>ASU students think everyone who isn't democrat a racist sexist and homophobe
>that weird time the lolita community tried to out's all males as sexpests and then accidently leaking their shota server/channel thing
>flagstaff touhou fan sperging out some guy called it "space invaders on steriods"
>Taiyou con 40 yo owner hitting on sexpests
>that split of 2016 where anyone making trump meme's was labeled a racist
I could go on but lole

>>10936402
We definitely have plenty of that shit in spades, but we're so disjointed that shit doesn't appear on your radar unless you were ground zero. Since we have some form of con every/every other month, not everyone is around for everything, shit get smokescreened and downplayed easily.

>>10936310
Don't do ganbatte, the owner is a freak and everyone I know who's associated with him regrets it. There was also a k-pop contest where the MC humiliated a contestant until they cried on stage for no reason. They're only successful because they actually gaf about what people are interested in unlike Other Events but I think we need higher standards than the guy who names his cosplay guests groupchat "sex kittens"

>>10936402
other than two things this is none of the AZ drama this is just teen cosplayers not following you back on IG
