I'm really on the fence about buying pic related for 24624 yen. I don't really follow btssb, but it's a re-release right? Will it be easy to find secondhand?

>> No.10164664

>>10164647
Ok but how new are you to the fashion as a whole not just BTSSB??

Of course it's a re-release. This is an old school dress part of their classical series.
You can probably find older versions of it from back in the 00's but they will be kind of worn and also not hold a big petti.

With this new classical series Baby made the same design but with a bigger skirt for the new poofy pettis. I don't think it will be that easy to find secondhand because mostly big old school fans buy these and tend to hold on to them.

>> No.10164673

How is that relevant lol, I swear some of you are obsessed with "outing" people as new. If I was new to the fashion I would have said so instead of pointing out I'm only partly sure it's a re-release.

>> No.10164679

And did I say I was too retarded to see its from their classical series when that says so on their webshop where I got the picture, and also it's just super obvious?

I'll be honest, I'm usually the one saying they're new -- not the newfag meme, but sometimes it's really obvious they don't know anything, like the one that needed bnwt secondhand explained to her, or this being Momoko's dress.

I still don't get why being new is an insult. If you're new and clueless, just admit it -- it helps people help you since they now know you need additional hand-holding and much more explanation rather than dropping a "u wot m8, that's their classical line".

If being called out for being ignorant and new feels like a sting, maybe because it is -- let's face it, sometimes the people called out just genuinely didn't do any fucking research and expect to be spoonfed, or they're plain spewing bullshit out their arse, and you expect the rest of cgl to what, say ok and agree to their bullshit because newfag is memey now? Bullshit is still bullshit, and newfaggotry bullshit is still newfaggotry bullshit. If you find it so insulting, do your research so you don't end up looking like a dumbass in the first place.

Yeah. I'm actually into tea length lately, but I feel like the cut straddles the really awkward line between mature and 'awkward ballroom length' tier. There's too much flare for me at the bottom, and while that would be truer to a lolita silhouette, I'm not sure if it looks nice.

You know, it's a bit of a misconception that tea length only looks good on tall people.
Their main customerbase is Japanese women, and the average height for a Japanese woman is 158cm (5'2") so it's supposed to look good on women around that height as well.
Just try it out, order a tea length dress (new or 2ndhand) sometime to find out if you like it or not.
I'm 155cm (5'1") and I got the long cross OP from Moi Meme Moitie and honestly, it looks fine (not gonna selfpost though).

I got this and I personally love it. As a 5'1" shorty, it comes pretty close to my ankles. Only problem is if you don't have a long enough petticoat for it, it shows pretty badly when you walk.

>>10165205
calling people new is a cop out imo. It's so easy to call people new rather than actually think about what they are saying or prove them wrong. It's a small brain reply. I miss older cgl where people actually had conversations most of the time and trolls and idiots who spouted "newfag!" constantly were less-so (but still around). It's so tired. Plus it's often newfags or people who have only been around 4 years or less spouting that shit. You're an adult, have a conversation instead of just dismissing people as new. I've been around a long time, and even I have stupid questions, I am always learning new things. also, you're complaining people want to be spoonfed in a thread about literally asking for help. Ignore these threads if it triggers you so much.

Personally I'd ask what material it's made of since I don't see it listed on their website. But for $250 it's not bad and looks pretty wearable.

Like I said, I'm not the one spewing the newfag meme. You're right, most of that is newfags calling other newfags newfags.

Sometimes it's relevant to the discussion, like explaining that it's not about the lipstick being blue, newbies are just so darn new they don't understand that there was a time when European lolitas posted EGL coords every other week and Moitie still had shops with coffin changing rooms that you could hold a dream of someday visiting, and now it's all gone, owning the MmM blue lipstick is the very last thing form that era (and it's now gone too). Or explaining to some really self-centred newbie that even if they themselves don't find Shimotsuma Monogatari funny, a lot of other girls "get" it and like it regardless.

I'm part of old cgl so we're on the same page, it's really the dumbass newfags turning everything into a worthless meme that makes it impossible to post a decent explanation without some newfag being offended I implied they were new. I don't get that part either. If you're new, just be new and polite. If you made a mistake, you're anon on 4chan, nobody knows or cares who you are irl anyway, you don't get extra points for successfully pretending to not be new either, so why not drop the topic and go find something else to obsess over.
