>do you prefer ouji or aristocrat?
i like both but prefer the playfulness and versatility of ouji.

>wigs or natural hair?
natural hair, unless either the wig is not costumey or the coord is.

>how much makeup?
i prefer fresh-fraced as well as shironuri/v-kei. no major opinion though.

>is facial hair okay?
if it is neat.

>do breasts spoil the silhouette?
nope, it activates Utena mode.

>can chubby boystyle work?
could be cute. upper classes have often been a bit chub.

>favorite substyle/theme?
gothic. not the black+white Kuroshitsuji-esque gothic, but the vampiric, or ghostly, or underground kind. textures and details and something a bit "off" or strange.

>least favorite?
sexy shota. typically has tight shorts, upper thigh showing, poses open-mouthed with stuffed animal and/or lollipop. just lol and ew.

>solids or prints?
no preference, but i do not like most matching vest/short prints. patterns such as pinstripes or diamonds or whatever is fine, but loud all-over prints on more than one main piece seems too much.

pic related, an all-over print done nicely imo.

>favorite brand?
Moi-meme-Moitie and AatP.

>any specific dream item?
MmM Ritual Print gilet, men's size.

>what would you like to see more of in boystyle?
creative gothic coords, jewelled accents.

>what would you like to see less of?
gold trim and men with bad fits and hair.

>any final thoughts on the subject?
i hope boystyle diversifies and expands. there seems to be a lot of interest outside of Japan, so it would be nice to see more indie designers make ouji and aristo items that flatter both women's and men's bodies. most indie stuff of quality is shaped for an asian woman's torso.
