This is why you should never take IRL advice from /cgl/. The "shame upon non-burando" I took seriously until I sucked it up and wore a Bodyline print I liked to a heavily lolita populated convention. I ended up getting compliments from girls in actual brand and a few were surprised the print was actually Bodyline and everything else was Taobao.

Gulls get blouses from Taobao all the time, they get their accessories from Taobao all the time, and some lolita shops on Taobao make damn good prints. Odds are no one will even notice you're wearing Taobao because it's not a flashing neon sign above your head and if your coord is good then no one will care anyway as long as it's not a brand replica.
