/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Would this op look good with pink striped socks (meta)?

I feel like it's been a really long time since AP has released a fully shirred dress. I'm an hourglass and I love how their full shirring stuff fits. Berry garden was the last good one imo.

ugh AP, please design some more cute OPs with shirred bodices. I sigh at every new series that has a bunch of cuts that won't flatter my torso.

I really miss the sturdy construction and 18th century dolly vibe older stuff had in general.
I'm over these half-assed yokes, balloon skirts, and thin sack-dresses. >>9497309 and all the recent stuff like it feels like a major departure from lolita's roots. it's all reminiscent of sleepwear and not stuff I would want to run errands in.

>also, is it me or has each new print looked more and more washed out colour-wise than the one before?
