Since its already a cheap skirt it wouldn't be a big deal to just replace the lace with something more your taste, and with the elastic it could be easily covered by certain blouses that don't look messy untucked or a even a simple cardigan would work

Can you sew?

If so you can take the lace and elastic off and replace with something nicer.

If not you'll have to find a seamstress.

Also this looks short. Be careful that is it not to short for lolita.

>>8461878
That's true, I'm wondering whether to go with a grass green lace or not, also I'm wondering where to source a nice lace.

>>8461879
Only a little, I have a work mate who can sew so I'll probably ask her for help. I'm wondering whether to add a line of fabric around the bottom of top of the skirt.

Advice: buy an actual lolita skirt. No matter what you do with this one, the end result will just be a cheap loliable. Also, use the help or lolita coordination or even lolita general thread, this kind of personal advice request for one person, one skirt is not of enough interest to the board to have it's own thread.

Omg. You're the one who bought that ugly puzzle dress aren't you, anon? Please stop buying stuff. You're super bad at it. Just buy a real lolita skirt for once.

>>8461979
But anonnnn! She has a closet full of ~burando~~

>>8462010
The way everything is worded seriously sounds just like that puzzle dress girl. I have no doubt that this is the same person. Stop trying to make everything lolita. The only plus side to this skirt is that it is not a shitty pattern, but the gathering happening ruins the pattern.

>>8461979
Lmao this skirt is £20. I fucking love that thread. I only own two pieces of burando so I'm clearly not as experienced as baby blanket girl.

>>8461842
Save your money and buy a real lolita skirt.

>>8462017
Link to where to buy it. I want to see this listing as well. This chick is hilarious in her clothing choices and wanting to make everything into lolita.

I'm OP, I'm from the UK and I've only been getting into lolita for a year. I own Anna House and some Angelic Pretty stuff. I was looking into cheaper outfits for customisation and I was wondering how cheap a good lolita co-ord could go. Not puzzle girl, honestly that thread is fucking beautiful, I commented asking anon to keep capping. My most expensive piece was about £120.

Also I've only been to four tiny cons in the UK including Sunnycon.

You know it's kawaii cause it says it in the URL B)

Also this store sponsors the MCM Expo.

>>8462034
This will never make anything good for lolita. You are better off saving your money and buying used brand of something from TaoBao. Damn, girl, even a Bodyline skirt completely beats this.

>>8461842
>>8462042
Stop shopping on this site for lolita. There are no lolita brands in the entire list.

>>8462042
The print itself it cute, but the gathering really fucks it up hard. I can see this /possibly/ being otome material, but just... Ugh.. That gathering pisses me off so much.

>>8462045
I rarely find patterns I like so it's a massive shame this isn't better quality. Maybe in future a brand might make something similar in style.

I honestly wasn't expecting anything amazing for £20.

>>8462059
Get it for normal wear. Just don't coord this for lolita. Please. The gathering messes it up so much, but the pattern is cute. It would look cuter with a similar pink ruffle on the bottom if you plan to replace that lace. Shouldn't even have lace to begin with.

>>8462057
Yo I don't normally, I just came across it when considering going to MCM this year and was laughing at the lacemonsters when I came across this print I actually liked. I'm normally hitting up AP. I just wondered if the design was salvageable. Cool yo tits.

>>8462068
Yeah I guess the lace is there as a pretend petticoat sort of style? Is the biggest problem the gathering?

>>8462087
The gathering is messing up the design completely. Its far too gathered at the top.

>>8462072
Nah sis, fuck off with your cheap taste and loliables. If you've been in the fashion over a year and you still have to ask on something like this then your eye for lolita is just complete shit.
And you're too ignorant to even realize it evidently since you posted this in the first place. That's more the situation.

>>8462072
You keep sounding more and more like the puzzle skirt chick.

>>8462194
Seriously. Pretty sure it's the same person and they're just trolling everyone. If op thinks the puzzle skirt thread is so hilarious, why would they make their own serious ugly skirt thread?

>>8462222
Yep.

Not OP, but I think the skirt print is cute? Would wear for casual wear honestly. I've seen it on taobao before for cheap, does anyone have link?

>>8463201
Found the store. They also have pic related, which I think is cute but not long enough or big enough to hold a petticoat. Would buy?

Who the fuck is puzzle chan? Genuinely confused

>>8463284
some noob who made a thread a little bit ago about whether this franche lippee skirt was loliable

>>8463372
That's fucking hilarious. The OP's potential skirt isn't THAT bad, but of coarse puzzle skirt isn't setting the bar too high.

>>8462222
I made it because the pattern is cute, where as puzzle girls skirt is ugly as hell? This thread was more for modifications rather than co-ord, I can co-ord this but I didn't know if this skirt was salvageable in terms of physical modification. Lol take your rage back to puzzlechan. I posted this before I saw that thread. I'm also not shitting myself over those giving actual advice unlike she did.

>>8463232
No, because it looks like it's trying too hard to be lolita. I wear actual lolita or something otherwise stylish.

>>8463201
Hey I posted the link I was looking at this at
>>8462042
Just Google the name or image, I didn't come across the original store but an anon further up did.

>>8463201
Whoops reread this and realised you meant the actual print, sorry anon just finished a nightshift.
