/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

IMO, the Tumblr mori girl scene has completely changed the perception of this fashion in recent years. Of course there are brands, these clothes obviously have to come from somewhere. But I rarely see them talked about anymore because it's all "thrift everything!" and "sew your own stuff!" now. (Not to say that this isn't good advice, most of my wardrobe is thrifted as I also can't sew. But I definitely don't think it's as fun to discuss and it makes it hard for new people to get a grasp on the style because there's nothing concrete to point to.) It also pains me to see everything else reduced to "I don't know, just look at Taobao."

Anyway, 4chan seems to think my links are spam, so Google "mori girl checklist," "mori girl blogspot" and "gohalainn scans" and I think that'll get you off to a good start. Good luck and I hope you have fun exploring.
