Agreed, lolita is very slow, and it's for a good reason. We're identified by a few select features.

If you stick to the same general look, you get
>I'm sick of seeing the same designs (from x brand) over and over again.
If you branch out and get creative, you get
>I don't think this is lolita (or x brand) anymore, this is weird.

There are tons of different styles and prints and colours and details, brands just tend to cater to one aesthetic or another. So go look at different brands, there's so much variety out there. You're just constrained by the features that make lolita, well, lolita.

It’s also not fast fashion in that the clothes are designed to last longer, and thus have less closet turnover. You see a lot of change in brands like F21 because the shirt you bought is only meant to be worn several times before you shop for a new one (where the designs will be different so that you don’t notice you are being forced to shop more and replace items you already have).

Maybe they are more influenced by mainstream ''western fashion'' from that time (e.g. MILK and Olive girls (altough lolitas like Mariko Suzuki say those are the actual origins of lolita fashion)). If they are from the 80s/90s, it could be because lolita had a more negative connotation in Japan because of that serial killer, or they didn't want to be associated with a small, weird subculture when they thought they could appeal to normies. Pic related is a jpop singer in the 80s.

I agree. I have zero interest in anime cons so it's a waste of money to pay for a ticket just to have access to the one lolita event.

No point in meeting up since we'll see each other at the con! Cancel the swap meet so we can do a bring & buy at the con instead! Just come to the con, anon!

Rufflecon was a blast for me for the two years I went. I don't know what you mean by "hardcore."
Sure, it's not like every lolita in America goes, but it's also way over in New England.
When local cons have tea parties and lolita programming, and brands on the coasts hold tea parties, it's harder to convince someone to travel 3,000 miles and spend hundreds to thousands of dollars to go to a lolita only event.
Rufflecon was a very big expense for me and a lot of people I know, mostly due to travel and hotel costs.

I speak as someone whose first language isn't English, but google translate doesn't really work with some terms, idioms, etc. With body language it's even worse, because there are cultural differences. It doesn't seem like much, sometimes it can be very subtle, but it makes a difference.

You can read the entire thread regarding the subject..

but my point is that people in the States are not United like the name makes it seem. People here fucking hate each other and don't get along at all. I don't know what it's like in other countries, but it's not like this.

I've seen people get in verbal fights at meets too from arguing politics at the wrong time.
There are loads of reasons why we can't all get together for some big fun meet. People suck and clash too much in our cultures.

Its a damn shame cause I'd love to go to a big lolita event with brand guests - but I'd never spend money on something like that cause I know it wouldn't really be fun and there would be too much of people not getting along.

It really is a thing.
As I said, it's really subtle, but approach to things like hand gestures, eye contact or smiling are all slightly different across all countries. Your first language also matters, even if you know english very well.
When I was in England I felt that everyone was staring at me, smiling. They seemed really fake with their greetings, and they thought I wasn't feeling well. And it was like this when I knew the language. I got used to it after a week. Of course, not everyone will have experience as dramatic as mine, but it's still something to consider.

Really the issue isn’t the time of travel but the ability to put in the time/money to start something. People will travel if they find it worth it but getting to the point where it’s worth traveling to takes a lot of work.

It must be either tulle or chemical lace. The dress is AP RRL OP. Lolibrary says it has original rose tulle lace and chemical lace, and since it's not the custom lace I'm guessing it's chemical? It's on the lavender lace right above where the overskirt sits.

Pic related is the discoloration. It's very confusing because I wore the dress only once, and I swear to Mana I did not get anything on it. Even if anything got on it, the area under the lace would be affected too, which it isn't.

Alterations always drop the value of the dress, so you're paying money to lose money. Plus there's usually some young poorfag who will bitch and cry about how burando is sacred and let's have the brands go out of business rather than buy their dresses and alter them.

I wouldn't say it drastically cuts the price of the dress down, but if you buy a dress at $300 and then sink another $50-100 to alter it, I've never seen an altered dress still go for retail, let alone retail + alteration price. Far more likely it goes for $100-200, which to be fair, is what secondhand brand that isn't the hottest "it" print goes for anyway.

But try this shit with, say CTP and try to actually get $1000 for it, I think it'd be a different story. Especially if your alterations aren't just deepening the arm scye (which does make the market bigger, as it makes the dress more wearable for the western girls, which generally have bigger frames), but something like cutting up waist ties will drastically drop the price a whole lot. Even what the original OP wanted, which was to completely change the design of the dress by putting in a fitted waist, is going to alienate the girls who originally liked the dress in its original form, and that's without taking into account whether or not the alterations are done professionally.

Some alterations are reversable though. I doubt this type would be, but some I wouldn't mind paying for if the dress was made smaller.

If you weren't talking about misty sky, which after 193948829292 releases still goes for above retail, I would agree. I actually own cutsews to sleep in. But a major difference is cutsews are actually comfortable to sleep in vs misty skies fabric, which I also own. It's weird to sleep in it.

What is the reasoning behind it?

Having some pissing contest saying "well ~i~ spend x amount on what ~i~ wear to bed" doesn't negate the fact that she could spend money on something actually comfortable and sleep in it.

As someone who organizes a bunch of events --- its so much easier to piggyback on an anime convention than trying to book/rent a venue for your own specific event. They already have an agreement with the location and you don't have to do any of liability or cash costs that come from running your own thing. You wont make $$ off of it for the work you do, but there's less personal risk - which is often incredibly pricey.
