I'm always surprised at how badly wrong westerner's get certain Jfashions, when there are so many resources available to them. It's even more bewildering as these Jfashions are basically western fashions (albeit mainly vintage) , repackaged if you will. Larme in particular has so many looks to recreate as well . It's the styling and the fine details that people seem to be unable to grasp (I'd be interested anon's opinions on why) which is weird because it's quite simple. Is it laziness or just a lack of observation skills? That first photo, did she honestly look at LARME art book and think this outfit reflected the feel of the book, or that outfit is something Haruna Nakagori would dress her models in? I suspect that alot of these individuals don't have the physical resources (maybe financially or just knowing where and what to purchase) or the styling skills but just want to be associated with this new shiny special snowflake cute fashion anyway. Sorry for wall of text but I am both fascinated, disappointed and exasperated by this.

Yep, definitely ditch the second dress, but good job on the rest. I sort of agree on the gingham skirt, it isn't ideal (I think it's the cut or/and type of pleats) but I feel it is kind of workable (something like pic related)
