Posting some plus size inspiration I like.

As for tips I would say plus size girls or large chested girls should absolutely not wear full shirred jsk. I know it fits your measurements and then some but it is not flattering at all. Full shirring is not actually meant for plus size, and makes you look fat and your boobs look sad.

My favorite plus size fashion blogger. I usually dislike when girls are that size but her confidence and style are admirable and she's awesome.

>>8096893
she's loosing weight too from what i can tell. she's so adorable!

>>8096882
i really like mossbadger's aesthetic.

inb4 her vendetta-chan comes and shits up the thread

It's really not hard to be plus size in this fashion, there's tons if brand that will fit and look good if you're honest with yourself. At 5'1", 150 pounds, with G cup breasts I have a closet with plenty of brand that looks fine and I don't go around with boob loaf all over the place.

Boleros that actually fit are great for flattering larger figures since they can help give more of a waist and can cover up minor fit issues in the bust. Lower neckline blouses can help break up larger chests and shoulders, and more streamlined blouse sleeves are best for minimizing bulk up top. Also, fuller hairstyles are nice since they can also help to balance the overall appearance as long as you're not being swallowed by them.

So I p much have one of the most inconvenient body shapes for lolita. I have a long torso, super broad shoulders (43.5") and back, and my bust is like 6" bigger than my underbust and 10" bigger than my waist. On top of that I am about 5'8". Should I just only buy custom made everything? Stick with skirts forever? I was thinking about buying an enchantilly piece but I am afraid I would look a frumpy, broad-shouldered mess in it. I haven't been able to find examples of plus size girls wearing enchantilly who haven't stretched the shirring to the max so it's hard to imagine how it might look on me.

And to contribute to the thread here's a coord I really like

>>8097035
Could you please share which dresses you have, and what is the bust circumference please? I'd really like to buy more brand dresses that would be flattering.

bonus points for cute couple coord

>>8096893
Holy Moly! she's losing weight and it looks good!!

>>8097050
My bust is 102 cm with a sports bra - 106 with a regular one.

Some of the newer releases I own that are really fantastic are Cameo Window and Victorian Letter, both tiered versions.They have adjustable straps, which is absolutely necessary with a larger cup size. The Victorian Letter JSK is honestly a huge freakin' dress, and it looks good on my bust even with a normal bra.

Some other pieces that look good are the Twinkle Girl JSK set by Baby, the dropped waist helps big time to combat boob loaf - which isn't always about whether or not your breasts are pressed flat. Having space between the bottom of your bust and your waist line is important. Baby's shirring is also pretty forgiving as opposed to AP's.

Meta fully shirred JSKs are really nice too, I like to wear a cardigan/bolero over mine because it doesn't give much definition to my waist, but the straps are adjustable and actually slip off my shoulders.

Also - don't be afraid to alter JSK straps, just lengthening the straps makes a HUGE difference in appearance - especially on larger chests.

>>8097089
I can't take the dude seriously. Is that a fucking fedora?

>>8097317
OMG how does one accomplish this 4 inch reducing sorcery??? I am 103 cm in the bust, wear super thin unpadded bras and it's a huge pain when so many dresses are 102 cm bust and under.

Thank you for giving me hope ; u ;

>>8097400
4 inches =/= 4 cm. I wish I could knock my bust down 4 inches. The sports bra I wear flattens things pretty nicely though, but I've never tried real binding - I worry it'd cause too much of a boob loaf.

>>8096893
Wow! She looks so cute!
I can definitely tell that she's losing weight. You go girl!

>>8097442
lol im an idiot. I meant 4cm lol. It's late here. Getting a sports bra tomorrow.

>>8096893
Oh my god she's become so much thinner than before. This is downright inspiring. She looked great at any weight but I must admit she looks a lot healthier now.

>>8096222
My biggest advide as a plus sized lolita and it depends on how big you are But ballance out not oonlycolors and themes like how any lolita should but also size. With the big fluffy pettis and if you have a large bust i sugest going for bigger hair. Having straight hair or shirt hair can kind of make your head look odly small. I would say go for bigger wigs, hime style or twintail wigs may help.

Make sure your dresses fit well and dont look like your squeezed just bairly into them with the shirring so streched it looks uncomfortable. If something is too small get it altered. Try and define your waist too usually helps.

A lot of brands now are rather forgiving with size... Expecially meta though soem of there dresses go suprisingly large. I have a 110 bust last i measured and most of metas stuff has lots of comfortable wiggle room and dont look streched out on me.

>>8096893
she is looking cute!

>>8096222
Sauce on that dress? It's way too cute like holy shit.

>>8097527
Not the OP, but I think it's candied hearts from Angelic pretty.

>>8097519
Wow I am really proud of her, she looks great. It's really apparent how much she has lost in the bottom left image

>>8097510
Just curious, what meta items do you have? Are they all fully shirred?

>too fat to be a regular Lolita
>don't feel fat enough to be an inspirational fatty-chan

5'6", 140 pounds, I currently have a 98 bust, 76 waist. What side do I belong to? Am I already fatty-chan enough to join the thread with some suggestions/questions?

>>8098062
You sound like a big baby, you're not even considered overweight by medical standards and with a 76cm waist, you can fit into "regular" brand just fine.

>>8098062
You're not fat. If you have trouble fitting into brand it's because of your height.

>>8098062
I have your same measurements and so far every single piece or burando I own or want fits me just fine. You're not a fatty-chan, you need to have a 80cm+ waist for that.

>>8098072
>you're not even considered overweight by medical standards
That's surely the standards applied to many people called fat, especially here on cgl.
I'm probably a big baby because the Classic Lolita brands like MM or VM don't fit me, especially with a big bust.

>>8098090
>>8098097
Underskirts and movable straps are my friends... Any more suggestions for pieces that would fit? I do own a fair share of burando but I am always looking for more, especially for Classic.
Most trouble I have is because of my boobs and the fact that I only own/want to buy dresses as skirts do not suit me. I know AP fits larger girls (I've seen it myself irl) but I'm more into btssb and IW.

>>8098110
Why do skirts not suit you?

>>8098110
AP has some really beautiful classic-sweet non-print pieces, and sometimes they have darts in the bust to avoid boobloaf. They are pretty comfortable, too.

>>8098117
I don't think (and have been told several times by friends/family...) they suit my bodyshape very well. If I tuck in the blouse I just feel like walking boobs/poofy skirt.
Might not be very rational but since I like dresses more anyway and people told me they suit me better than skirts, well, I'm sticking to dresses.

>>8098124
I considered it but since AP usually has a cupcake shape and is so damn short I have always been a bit hesitant if it suits me. Not to mention that the unprinted stuff seems to be much harder to get second hand.

Who is this? How come she looks ok in a baby doll dress? I am trying to figure out how I can wear one as a plus sized person...

>>8098687
Because it fits her chest, and she did big hair to balance things out.

>>8098687

>>8098687
I think her trick is she is quite narrow shouldered and small chested

>>8098704

>>8098716
Same here, anon :(

(also this isn't me just contributing to the thread)

>asiotus.tumblr.com
I love this girl. I wish her tumblr had a #me tag or something so I could save a bunch at once. She has the most beautiful wigs, too.

>>8098731
omg her wigs are so full and natural looking

I wonder where she gets them from

>>8098072
98 cm bust, 75 cm waist, 167 cm height and I still can't properly fit into half the AatP, VM, MMM, or MM stuff I like. I feel like a fatty-chan and the visible pouch of tummy that I have to hold back confirms it.

>>8098097
When brands refer to waist, are they referring to actual waist or the circumference around the belly button?

>>8098739
Auuugh I know, they're unreal. I wonder if they could be like, real hair or something? I thought she just had amazing hair but she's said they're wigs.

>>8097045
>43.5"
If your shoulders are 44 INCHES ACROSS you should probably be putting your money into reconstructive surgery, not a one-size-fits-most fashion

>>8098824
>>8097045

Ah shit, I meant to say 43.5cm not in

Wow I feel stupid

>>8096222
Do you think empire/tent style dresses like OP suit bigger girls better or worse?
My friend is a A/B cup who's pear shaped, but I'm unsure how to help out along with the weight loss.

>>8098839
I think as long as they have a small chest they look fine.

Every single picture posted ITT looks Terrible
They've succeeded in only making themselves look even worse. They purposefully wear clothes that add mass to their already oversized bodies.. horrible

Except for her >>8098773 she's photogenic and her hair is nice, I like it. She stands out in this group of hippos

>>8098897

Oh, stop bullshitting.

It never ceases to amaze me how many persnickety whores browse fattie threads when they have such a huge preset bias against them. What did you fucking expect in a plus size thread, genius?

>>8098043
I have a Metas "Sweets Print" and it fits comfortably it is full shirring, meta makes a lot of full shirring peices that are really forgiving. Usually when i check the measurements they go to at least my 110 or bigger. Granted i would srill make sure you fit under the max measurements so it still is comfortable and not odd looking.

Post your fat little dick or gtfo.

It's really refreshing to see a thread that's not polluted with a bunch of people shitting regurgitated insults out their ass because FAT FAT ZOMG FAT.

Really, all of these women look beautiful, and if anyone plus size girl needs inspiration/a good model of what to strive for as a plus size loli, then this is all great. They're for the most part all doing it right, even if some are better than others.

>>8099003
>Really, all of these women look beautiful

That's a lie..
Tell them the truth for once, you'll be doing them a favor

>>8098943
I don't really like this coordinate at all...I mean the girl is cute and stuff but this is definitely not how I would coord toy march. At the very least I would change the socks and shoes, they don't go with the dress at all?

>>8099017
Ah yeah, yep. You caught me. I wasted my time to lie on an anonymous message board too chicken shit to say who they are about people who will most likely never see themselves posted here. What a fool I am, what is my life.

>>8099034
To people who are too chicken shit***

>>8099034
>I wasted my time to lie on an anonymous message board

Isn't it obvious, that's exactly what you did

>>8099017
Except you're not cute

>sage

>>8099044
Because it's absolutely unimaginable that one is able to find plus-size women unattractive/pulling off an aesthetic well. I mean, it IS obvious! There is no other possible explanation here! :OOO

>>8099052
>>8099058
I agree with you both and imma let you finish,

but you really shouldn't feed the troll. Especially the one who claims to have a micropenis and thinks that makes his opinions more significant.

>>8099039
I like VB, she reminds me of a fat Taylor Swift.

>>8099058
Dude I'm pretty sure this is the same guy who's been shitting up threads lately with his exceptionally whiny style of he-man woman hating. Don't bother engaging him because it's like talking to a chat bot. A chat bot with the smallest penis ever.

>>8099076
Aye, truth. Let's derail this thread back onto the right track.

>>8099058
It's not that they're plus size that makes them unattractive
It's the fact they are unattractive that makes them unattractive.. and their horrendous sense of fashion just pushes them into another dimension of nastiness.
This is really the most unappealing group I've seen so far on this board, 'bad cosplay' threads included

>>8099069
>>8099076
I believe he suffers from a condition known as Low Test Betaness. LTB affects 1 out of 5 shitposters. Typically they're found shitting up High Test threads on /fit/ or on the porn boards. The only way he could have found this thread is if he went out of his way to look for it specifically on this board which means he's probably a Type-B LTB. They're the more aggressive type, probably due to psychological trauma they've experienced in early life that they blame on fat people.
The LTB in this thread probably got sat on by a fat lady with eccentric clothing while he was a kid, hence the need to shit up a plus size lolita thread.

>>8099069
>tfw you have an excuse to post PSH in his underwear

You could nitpick this one, but I like how she made a red and black outfit work for Christmas.. A more elegant bolero and fuller hair would improve it, I think.

>>8099201
this is a terrible outfit. those shoes, the random rhinestone heart necklace, the casual bolero over that dress that's trying to be fancy...

>>8099297
And you didn't even mention the gross hair.

>>8099316
Someone already said that.

>>8099316
Her makeup is awful too. Those eyebrows. Ugh.

>>8096222
Have you tried not being fat?

>>8098749
Around the bellybutton (which is the actual waist). It's also normal to measure the circumference around hips, but thats not so usual in lolita fashion due to huge skirts.

>>8098749
It's going to depend on where the waist is intended to sit and where it actually sits on you. I also consider my underbust measurement. If that can fit into the max with at least 3cm to give for breathing room, it's usually good, but I always give myself extra leeway (about 6-10+ cm) so that it's not obviously so snug looking.

Thanks! I don't really like the way I look in full shirring so I was hoping you wouldn't say that haha.

And to contribute to the thread, here's some plus size friendly brand

BTSSB Lame Dot Chiffon
Bust: 77-106
Waist: 65-94

>>8096882
For full shirring just take out the front shirring and revamp the front bodice so that it works.

>>8098704
dammit. I'm stuck with narrow shoulders big chest.

>>8098062
>too fat to be a regular Lolita
>don't feel fat enough to be an inspirational fatty-chan
I know that feel anon. I'm 5'6, 143lbs, and I have 96 bust and 80 waist plus really broad shoulders and fat arms. So hard to buy j-fashion clothing, since most things either don't fit my waist or my shoulders and arms. I once posted in some body type thread her on /cgl/ calling myself chubby, and a lot of girls raged on me because I apparently wasn't fat enough to call myself chubby. I'm pretty good at dressing flattering for my shape, so that might have been some of the reason though (even though I did state my measurements).

Thought, I do agree with some of the anons here, 76cm waist seems to be just inside the maximum in a lot of lolita. I wouldn't call you fat at all, but you might be a bit chubby depending on how you carry your weight.

>>8100618
God I love chrysalisbatlace so fucking much. Can't believe I didn't think to post her after asiotus.

>>8100465
Where do you carry most of your weight? I'm the same height and bust/waist measurement you are, but I weigh almost 160lbs and have no problem fitting into most partially/fully back-shirred AP. Granted, I do carry most of my weight around my hips and butt, so my arms and shoulders don't pose a problem.

>>8100425
Innocent World Three Archangels Tiered OP
Bust: 85-118
Waist: 64-107

Does anyone own Atelier Pierrot's Kaizerin Kleid Nacht ? I was thinking about buying it but my bust is larger than the max stated on the site

I know that their bustle corset dresses are really forgiving and have a bigger maximum stretch than what the site indicates, so I was wondering if this dress was the same.

>>8100634
I'm not really that big on the hips, my measurements are 96-80-98. JSKs usually fits me, but it's hard finding blouses and OPs because of my shoulders and arms. I also have long arms as well, so it's stretchy lolita cardigans and other long-sleeved stuff are often too short on the arms. Skirts are usually a lost case as well.

I don't really dress much lolita, more otome, since I'm pretty good at coording "normal" store clothing into otome and similar, and it's not as easy for lolita since they have more specific guidelines.

I actually just recently lost some weight after getting a puppy, so I have gone down to 78 right now. Too bad I'm too busy watching the puppy to bother dressing up much now.

>>8096882
She looks like someone's mom at the country fair.

It would be cute without the ribbons and a different hat and possibly glasses though.

>>8097519
The bottom right outfit is absolutely gorgeous.

>>8100361
This doesn't belong here. The dress length makes her look bigger than she is, she has boob loaf, and no neck.

>>8100684
>opinions

she looks great. also she's wearing like a fur neck thing, dummy

you people bitch when fatties wear knee length stuff

you bitch when they wear long stuff

just stop

>>8100692
>you people
I'm a fellow fatty. Most of the girls in this thread look great. She doesn't. It's an unflattering outfit.

>>8100698

fellow posters, would you ever consider dating an plus sized male? I'd assume not, since most of you probably only have eyes for thin narutos and sasukes (aka me)

>>8100717
I like chubby boys. Not like super heavy, but a little bit of squish is fun to cuddle with.

What measurement does your waist have to be to be considered a Fatty-chan? I feel like my 65 cm waist is close to that seeing as most brands only go up to 67cm or so.

>>8100717
chubby guys are my weakness

>>8100717
I actually prefer slightly chubby guys. Soooo cuddly

>mfw

>>8100721
>>8100735
>>8100737
Don't tempt me

Putting food on a fat girl's dress is kind of redundant isn't it? I mean, the crumbs already give enough contrast on their poor outfits.

>>8099201
I just don't find this shade of red to be very flattering on most people, I think something more in the color of wine would black would be much more appealing.

>>8100338
I was taught to find the narrowest point between the bottom of the ribs and the hip bones. On me, that place is several cms smaller than the circumference around my belly button. I appreciate the tip, anon!

>>8100717
I have a bhm fetish but I dont know if I would actually date anyone who is more than chubby.

>>8100719
This is super cute, this looks so flattering for this body shape!

>>8100425
There shirring generally does have more give than most dresses ive had or seen compairing friends clothes and such. Depending on just how big you are i would check there measurements on half shirring dresses too.

>>8100991
I'm seconding this. I have dress that I am 4 cm over the listed measurements in the bust and there's room to spare in the shirring. The waist is pretty spot on though.

>>8100668
>>8101076
Thanks! I'll definitely have a look at more meta stuff. They don't seem to have much on their website right now so maybe I'll look at some secondhand stuff

>>8100668
Forgot to contribute another dress!

This one I have been searching for on and off for a couple years now and no such luck. It was on sale from the IW website ages ago and every day I kick myself for not buying it then.

Personally no, but I do have a thing for super thin guys.
>>8100732
It's really a matter of opinion. Plus, burando is made for petite Asian girls so being in the max zone for their measurements isn't anything to be ashamed of. My waist is ~97cm

>>8100717
It depends on how tall you are and how your weight is distributed. I'm not plus sized but my boyfriend is.
He's 6'4 and like 290 pounds but has a decent amount of muscle on top of some fat. So yeah I wouldn't date a short, fat guy or a tall, fat guy with no muscles.

>>8100719
Oh man, it's the actress that played the PI from Divorce Chaser, isn't it? She's so cute, I love her.

>>8098932
ok post ur outfits then cunt.

I'm rather fond of chubby people in general so long as it suits them? The same weight on one person can look really weird on another.

>LM

I meant to say lolibrary

This is the second time in like two days I have confused the two despite knowing what each of them are!

>>8101337
I own this and wouldn't reall recommend it for someone over a 105 bust; the bodice doesn't seem to be able to hold that much and also will sit weird on you. Not too sure about the waist measurements either...

>>8102554
Such a pretty dress! But doubt again that it's that forgiving. It might be, but I take it with a grain of salt.

I wish IW would release more of these dresses instead of the print stuff. They did a lot of re-releasing old stuff and did some nautifcal themed clothes, why not more fo this? They could perfectly sell it to the plus size and OTT crowd.

>>8098097
I'm smaller than you (96 bust, 73 waist) and I have problems fitting into a lot of brand, like most blouses and cutsews and most IW stuff I like.

>>8102677
My cow-tittied friend has >>8102554 and apart from the waist hitting her a bit higher than where it's probably supposed to, there aren't that many other issues with it.

>>8102690
Almost at your measurements and same here. The problem is the bust for me - not only is it often on the maximal measurements side, but also most dresses aren't actually designed to fit that much boobs into them. They might strecht to that point but then they won't look good on you, the bodice will fit awkward and the straps are to short, etc etc... Same with blouses. The gaping buttom of doom that leaves me almost always in tears once I try them on, and in shame someone of my comm might magically find out that under the JSK the blouse fits awful and the buttons gape despite being under the max. measurements.

I find that many IW pieces are a lot more forgiving and also the straps are often moveable which is incredible helpful.

>>8102697
Then on my wishlist it goes. Thanks Anon!

>>8102698
My waist is giving my IW skirts trouble and I don't dare ordering any skirts from Baby. I got a minimizer bra from spanx, it's too wide because I had to get a 36D, but it helps a little with the gaping buttons. Speaking of Baby, they have a the Chiffon Baby Doll Blouse (at least I think that's what it's called) and it stretches out to 115cm or something.

>>8102720
I need to get a minimizer bra too... Still on my wishlist but my size is so difficult to find in stores - I have a 70H (Eu sizes) which is so hard to find and I don't reall like ordering bras from online, especially with brands that i have no experiences with.

I only own one fully shirred Btssb skirt and none from IW so I have zero experiences there.
I think some of btssb's chiffon blouses were a bit bigger, I need to do some research there. In general I stick to IW size L and taobao.

>>8102720
>My waist is giving my IW skirts trouble
I know this feel. I'm not even near plus sized and their skirts are uncomfortably tight. I've tried on a high waist one with partial shirring and I couldn't get them to zip up.

I just want skirts so I can wear lolita casually.

>>8102735
I ordered mine (a Lilyette minimizer) from Her Room, and it looks like they carry the US equivalent to your size (32F). You should check and see if they deliver to your area.

>>8102748
Curious, how many inches does it take off your bust? I've been thinking of getting a lilyette minimizer too (diffanon but i'm also an F cup

>>8102735
At least we can fit lots of brand, I have zero problems with most Baby and AP Jsks. I also usually wear a 65G/70F, depensing on the band size, and as far as I've researched, minimizers of various brands start at a 80cm band size.

>>8102739
I also have a partly shirred high waist IW skirt, it zips up but it feels really uncomfortable and if I were to tuck in the blouse and/or skip the bolero it's clearly visible that it doesn't fit right.

Advice to stop blouses gaping? I own two - one meta, one Aatp. Bust is 99 cm. They both gape slightly over my boobs. The meta one is a much tighter fit. I wear sports bras. Don't know what else to do.

>>8102774
I once again recommend the Baby Chiffon Doll Blouse. Or whatever it's called. Check it out, only comes in 3 colors though.

>>8102554

Fully shirred, I think it goes up to 90cm or so

Mine takes a little over an inch off, so I go from a 28G/91cm bust to a 28F/88cm bust. It's not a miracle worker but it's just enough for me to fit into dresses that were previously a bit too snug over my breasts.

>>8100678
I think her glasses are cute on her, and she's old enough to be a mom but still doesn't look too old for sweet somehow.

Thanks anon. Do anyone know who is she ?

>>8105029
Tube bodices aren't designed for anything other than very petite frames with small busts. They will always look awkward as is on anyone who is above a b cup or moderately above the minimum measurements. Even if it stretches that far it's not going to look good at all.

Sometimes moving the buttons on the straps helps. Sometimes nothing you can do will make it work with a blouse or as is for the OPs. If you want to go with IW, invest in boleros and nice cardigans, you're going to need them.

>>8097089
he looks like my own bf with longer hair. Had to talk him out of wearing fedoras too.

I'm actually on the fence if I should post in the plus size tag or not since my measurements are 96-73-110(cms) which would make me a size 14 in pants(and I am medically overweight), but at the same time I can fit into most shirred brand without a problem. So while I am plus size in regular clothing, I might not be considered plus size in lolita since I carry all my weight around my hips and I don't really know if it would be appropriate for me to post in the tag or not.

>>8096882
I have a 110cm bust and a 95cm waist and the majority of my dresses are fully shirred. I think they look great on me, but I usually wear a cardigan over them. Not sure if self-posts are okay here, though.

>>8107232
Crop out your face if you feel uncomfortable, but if yoor coords are really as nice as you say I would be very interested in seeing them. Especially because I am afraid of full shirring looking bad on me.

>>8107236
Here's one of my fully shirred dresses with a cardigan.

>>8107250
And another without. I know I need to find a better sports bra to help with the slight boobloaf. And a different bow for that blouse.

>>8098656
She's enormous, and yet strangely cute. I love her hair, but I think the sleeves on that OP are a bit odd.

>>8107252
>slight boobloaf
>slight

>>8107250
This is really cute, I like it. Not sure how I feel about the black tea parties though. I feel like a pink shoe could give the coord some pop. Also do you ever decorate your cardigans with brooches or other pin-able accessories?
>>8107252
Yeah this is a loooot of boobloaf. I'm not sure if you also have the same insecurities as I do about my arms but I hate how chubby they look in short sleeve blouses and OPs. I use the cardigan/bolero trick to conceal boobloaf and arm flab since I'm really self-conscious.

>>8107250
>>8107252
Both of these are cute! But I always assumed I fully shirred means the whole bodice is shirred?

I liked the coords but investing in a sports bra/shape wear might help. I also somehow find the coord without cardigan looks more pretty despite the dress not fitting as good as the other one... You might want to invest into a nice more lolita looking cardigan, the plain black doesn't look really great.

>>8107287
I do, actually. I have put bows on the collar sometimes. I try not to dress them up too much because I think the dress's print should be the main focal point. I normally wear a cardigan or bolero because of the arm thing, but I thought I would give the blouse a try that day. I think the boob loaf is a little exaggerated by the lighting of the picture. It didn't look that bad in person. I've also lost weight since that picture was taken.

>>8107289
Both dressed are fully shirred. The whole bodice of both is shirred.

I am wearing a sports bra in both of those pictures. I do need a better one, though. I'd like to find one that has elastic between the boobs rather than being one solid piece, but I haven't been able to find one in my size. I'm still working on finding better lolita cardigans, but I think the plainer ones still look good. I like to keep the focus on the dress itself.

>>8107357
Having a lolita suitable cardigan doesn't take away focus from the dress itself? If anything it brings the rest of the coord down because everything else is distinctly lolita, and then you have thrown this one bland piece, which is actually too long for lolita, imo

Bunny House makes lovely cardigans in custom sizes.

>>8096222
loose weight fatty

>>8107361
I didn't know they made cardigans. I knew they made boleros and blouses. I'll have to take a look again. I've been considering ordering from them for a while. I just keep focusing on getting main pieces to build my closet up with.

>>8107374
I don't know how to say this without sounding a bit mean, but since I'm on your FB friends list I see what you buy. Do these dresses even fit you? You buy so many AP dresses with only partial shirring.

>>8107250
A cardigan like this really brings down your whole outfit. It's too long and too plain. There's putting the focus on the dress, and then there's having the dress and bow be the only lolita things you are wearing. The tights look too plain as well.

>>8107447
If you have to know, I have 4 dresses that don't currently fit me. I've fluctuated a lot on weight over the past few years due to various health issues. Now that I've gotten one of my bigger issues mostly solved I've actually lost over 10 lbs in the last few weeks. My dresses that don't fit yet are my motivation and one of them is/was my ultimate dream dress.

>>8107454
Tights are another thing I'm working on finding better versions of. OTKs don't work well on my legs, so I've been trying to find patterned tights and those aren't the easiest things to find in plus size either.

>>8107447
this comment is kind of rude and not really any of your business

>>8107467
teja jamilla on etsy makes plus size tights with patterns on them

>>8107469
Thanks! I'll check them out!

>>8107361
Different anon but I go with cropped cardigans or ones with nice details like lace or peter pan collars or add a detachable collar on top and a brooch or pin of some kind if they are bland. I've also altered a few to be shorter so they end at a more appropriate length.

Plain cardigans do really bring a coordinate down, but there's a lot of ways you can make them visually interesting rather than just throwing them on top.

I do prefer nice boleros over cardigans though.

>>8107469
>>8107460
I didn't mean it to be rude, I just wondered since I am also plus size and I was thinking there must be some trick if she fit into these dresses.

>>8107469
>kind of rude
Given where we are, with a self-posting fatty, if you think that's rude you should probably go back to tumblr

>>8107469
If she doesn't want what she owns to be other peoples business maybe she should stop bragging on FB about all the AP she buys...

>>8107482
Yeah I will agree that boleros do work better. I have a few but they're also plain. Like I mentioned before, I have a lot of aspects of my wardrobe I'm trying to improve, I just get easily distracted by main pieces. Especially with how much AP has been releasing lately. The majority of my non-main pieces are offbrand/thrifted which is why they're plain. But I'll definitely try to find ways to improve what I already have too.

>>8107489
Ah my apologies, I just don't really understand mentalities like this: >>8107500

>>8107500
I mean it's her money, even if she wont fit into it now you don't know what she's planning on doing in the future. Like she said, they are thinspo for her.

If someone is bragging about a purchase made, with their money, on their own facebook, they are perfectly entitled to do so. I don't really see a problem.

>>8107479
You should probably do a facebook cleanse.

How does one classify a plus size -lolita-? Like not just plus sized in general, but in lolita. I'm losing weight but I'm scared people view me as plus sized (no offense to plus sized girls, I think they can look great! Just... Not me.)
Does it depend on how their body carries weight? Like if a girl has a normal waist, but stocky legs would you put her in the plus sized category?

>>8096222

>>8107572
I'm curious about this as well.

>>8107572
cgl classifies anyone over 0% body fat as "plus sized"

>>8104972
Other anon's answered it, but you have probably seen her around. For some reason, there's an anon had has a serious vendetta against her.

To contribute, I don't have much, except for legwear, which is more or less common knowledge. If at all possible, tights are a better option than socks in my experience of being a fatty. Socks make my legs look fatter, but tights thin them out. For one thing, you won't have that knee fat problem, and you won't have any fat on the top that I've seen some girls have and it's more streamlined. Also flats are a terrible idea. Maybe for standard walking around but not for photo's

>>8107572
I'm just curious as to what size your waist has to be to be considered plus sized.

>>8107572
I assume it's anyone who doesn't have that tiny asian girl build.

>>8114181
What measurements would you need to have to be considered a tiny asian girl?

obligatory lose weight post

>>8114168
Probably if you can't fit into standard lolita skirts. So somewhere above 74 cm would be plus size?

Alright, how much do all of you weigh? Post your height and weight.

>>8114228
5'3" and 95 lbs here.My waist size is 25.5 inches so I consider myself a plus-size.

>>8107572
>What's plus size?
Generally anyone with a 29+ inch waist or who is above a US size 8. I have a 34 inch waist (used to be 40 inches), and most people consider me merely a chubby chan at this point.
>>8114259
>I consider myself a plus-size

Wow. 95 pounds. So fucking plus sized.

Get a god damn grip fucking shit.

>>8114263
I have a 27 inch waist but a 37 inch bust, so I also qualify as plus sized. I think it's more like one or two measurements far above the typical dress as opposed to just waist.

>>8114263
>>8114272
>>8114273

>>8114280

Really anon? My weight isn't the problem here, it's my waist. I thought I made that clear in my original post.

>>8114263
>Have you also considered a mental disorder as well?
Like I said, it's just my waist, nothing else.

>>8114279
>I have a 27 inch waist but a 37 inch bust, so I also qualify as plus sized.
..What? How? You just have a large bust. What's your dress size?
>>8114286
You don't have a plus size waist for a person who's 5'3. I don't know what or who gave you that idea, but you're mistaken. If you feel bad about it then there are plenty of ways to healthily diet and exercise to get your body into fitter shape, but don't be disappointed if you don't break the threshold of 24~ inches because it sounds like that's the limit for your body to maintain its health. 95 pounds is a very low body weight for your height.

>>8114286
sounds like someone is a candidate for corset training

>>8114346
Shut up you jelly fattie.

>>8114346
Why so salty, anon?

>>8107572
/cgl/ in general tends to label anyone who doesn't appear thin in photos as chubby. This could mean someone at a good median healthy weight (not on the low end but not on the high end) could be lumped in with plus size. Someone that carries a lot of weight in their boobs or in their legs where it's easily visible might be lumped in with chubby too, especially with a rounder face.

Regular fashion standards put plus size at over 86cm usually (roughly 12-14 depending)

Lolita is typically designed for a very specific build and frame. Typically over a size 6-8US (over 92cm bust, 76cm waist) might fall into "plus size" although it might still be in the medium range for standard western fashion. But at that point is where you start to have little issues with things like princess seam panels not lining up to your bust properly, shoulders in blouses/OPs being a little snug, not sitting at exactly the right spot, shoulder straps a little too tight or high up as is. All those things tend to be workable up until you reach above 106-110cm bust and maybe like 90cm waist which usually is within standard plus size. At that point, there are still brand options to work with but it really starts to look wonky.

There's what I like to call "ideal lolita size" (Japanese M, or US S) which is ideal frame, height, and measurements. Then larger than ideal lolita size, but not quite plus size (JP L, LL or US M, L), and then plus size (JP 3L-4L US XL, XXL) an I guess it can range to very plus sized (JP 5L-8L, US 3XL+)?

>>8114395
>Regular fashion standards put plus size at over 86cm usually (roughly 12-14 depending)
*waist. I didn't add bust for some reason? whatev you get my drift.

>>8107572
I think its personal opinion. It used to be that anyone who couldn't fit brand was plus sized. But then brand started to release larger sizes. personally I think if bust is 100cm or higher, and waist 80cm or higher is plus sized.

But then plus sized doesn't really mean landwhale, some girls can be completely proportionate with some chub and look good. Similarly with a larger body frame. But if your all fat with little shape, that's landwhale territory.

plus size lolita girls look like fairy marshmallows... it's honestly a compliment, i think they look adorable and cute and pillowy

>>8099118
I kek'd

>>8114346
Actually, I'm gonna give sieg the benefit of the doubt here. Waist training would probably help 95 lb chan get her desired waist measurement without leading her towards more weight loss.

If someone wants to help with updating the list, just send me a PM or email

>>8114292
I meant plus sized for lolita, I'm usually a dress size 8 or 10 and get the waist taken in. Though I'm like a 14-16 in vintage patterns.

>>8100758
I feel like this advice is why a lot of plus sized girls look like boobs+skirt with no waist. The smallest part of you is often not your waist when you're plus sized.

Stand up, and bend sideways. That indentation is your waist, and you'll probably look better if you wear skirts there and get dresses that have bodices long enough to rest on your natural waist, particularly if you're busty. Empire waists and empire waist effects only look good on people with small busts/shoulders.

>>8114259
You sound either like you're skinnyfat or unfortunately shaped. I'm 5' 2" and 113lb with a 25" waist, have you considered doing weights and working out? You definitely shouldn't lose weight, but you might have quite a high body fat percentage

>>8114573
Yeah, I've been working out but my diet consisted of eating shit like cake and pastries. It's only recently that I decided to work out seriously. Still, my goal is to have a body like those thin as shit asian girls, so I don't know if lifting weights or doing exercises that are heavy on the calves will make me look slightly more muscular.

My legs are already pretty thin and my bust is around 77 cm so my waist is the one that's ruining everything.

I buy dresses that I think I can have altered, because I have 119 cm of bust, and 95cm of waist...But when I think about my seamstress cutting into that brand I cringe. I love lolita, but I feel so disheartened by the way nothing fits right, and I'm tired of selling dresses that fit 105 cm of boobies at the max.

>>8114587
Have you had anything altered yet or have you chickened out? I am close to the same size as you, though I used to be a few inches larger. It's really frustrating that I'm losing weight but it seems like everything except my bust is getting smaller.

>>8114580
I would say use myfitnesspal and definitely definitely check that you're getting enough protein and aren't starving yourself - at your size it's about redistributing your weight. Cakes and shit get stored as fat so all the exercise in the world will not get rid of your tummy unless you stop eating crap. If you're worried about building muscle and want like...gyaru proportions, then stick to high rep/low resistance with weights (like pump class with light weights as opposed to weights room doing 3X8) and cardiovascular exercise (fun things like dance or more intense stuff like running, swimming), and incorporate pilates and yoga. Even K-pop idols use weights though, so they should be part of your routine. You want to have like..the H line and a slight S-shape ideally, even if you're thin overall.

I get too freaked out about the hundreds of girls who might be dreaming about them, but not able to find them. I imagine their faces and the audible gasps they would make when they saw the Korean seamstress from across town slice into AP like a maxi from Target, and then I don't end up taking them to get altered. I have a few blouses and all of my pettis, but I sold everything else on LM and eBay.

It should do! Glad I could help, I'm well on the 'solid' side when it comes to gyaru body types and although you don't end up looking like a bodybuilder when you lift heavy things you can end up with bigger thighs and arms than the gyaru ideal...best I can hope for is 'honey thighs' at this point in time.

>>8114228
5'3 180lbs.
105-83-114 for measurements.

I gained like 30lbs over the past two years (depression, finances, stress from school/work) but even when I was the 30lbs lighter my bust made me plus-size for most pieces and my waist was pushing it too.
At the time I was 97-74-104.

I'd classify plus sized as those who can't fit into standard sizing for whatever brand it is/brand average for standard sizes. Could be someone like me who is fat or it could be someone who is taller and broader in general, etc.

>>8114259
Is a 25 inch waist that bad. I have a 24 inch one and always thought it was pretty small...

>>8114228
5'7 125 lb 36/26/36
Because of my bust and height I feel pretty plus sized in lolita.
I just want to be a short, flat-chested qtpie.
Also I can't fit into a lot of lolita and otome that I like but I'm already rather skinny so it's not like losing weight would help my bust decrease in my case.

>>8115191
It's only "bad" if you compare it with her body shape/weight and gyaru/idol standards which are, admittedly, well underweight because most of them advertise their weight as 40-45kg regardless of height. There are all these ideal proportions and measurements and ratios floating around, but generally desirable sizes are Asian XS waist like 22-23",hip 32-33", thigh no larger than 19" and then 5:3:2 proportion for thigh/calf/hip if you have "perfect" ratio she's quite rectangular in the torso with 77cm bust (30.5") and 65cm (25.5) waist because she eats crap and has extra fat on her tummy. If she had lower body fat percentage it would look better so what she needs to do is not lose weight but build a bit more muscle so she can be smaller, same weight, but look more "toned" (like H-line for tummy/S line for body)
25.5 isn't bad at all but it doesn't always mean it looks good on someone, at 25" waist I still have chub and really need to be about 23-23.5" not to have it/to see ab outlines regardless of how much ab work I do, vs >>8115250 who is 4" taller and slender with waist measurement only 1" larger.

>>8115250
Are you like...amazing in Jane Marple clothes? They're always huge in the bust for me. Cath Kidston dresses would also really suit your height/size.

>>8118961
I have the same measurements at 5'9", yeah, they're pretty fat at 5'3"

>>8118953
Even for "kawaii aidoru" standards an 67 cm waist and 80 cm boobs are nowhere near fat. Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't Japanese idols nowadays at a pretty normal weight? Kyary Pamyu Pamyu for instance was at around 52 kg at 157 cm last time I checked. That's more than most of the 45 kg or less anons in this thread.

>>8119206
Kyary is not an idol. Idols are still said to be pretty petite, but they often lie blatlantly about their measurments.

>>8119212
What would be the standard measurements for an idol? What would be considered "fat" in the idol world? Do your measurements matter much if your waist is below 70 cm?

>>8118961
Isn't it interesting? No one want's to be called a fatty but when a Plus size thread is up suddenly everone swarms in and wants affirmation by calling themselves fatties and getting some whiteknights.
Imagine if fat girls came to threads and cry "BUT I'M 180 POUNDS I'M TOTES SKINNY! MUH SKINNYSHAMING ;_;", they'd be laughed at.
