/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Odd but cool thread OP. It's a shame that bloomers have gradually become forgotten about. I think they're highly underrated.

>>9995615
Damn, it's a lot harder than I thought to find some examples

>>9995619
Thank God for oldschool!

Bless you for this thread, OP.
>Have you ever made a coord with peeking bloomers?
I don't make single separated coords because that's not how my wardrobe works lol, but I do love wearing drawers that peek under my knee length dresses, when the weather is colder.
>What's your overall opinion of peeking bloomers?
Love them. Love them so much. I don't know what it is about them that makes them so charming but I think they're adorable, whether you can see nothing more than lace or several cms of the hems like in pic related.

I think one of the reasons why they're so cute is that they're very doll-like and are something that used to be commonly worn but is not out of date. Kind of feels like you're continuing on a part of history.

>Idk what makes them so charming
I feel this on a primal level. They're just so cute. So inexplicably charming. It's really a shame that the trend kind of died off.

Pic related: not fond of the hat, but love the (pompom?) Bloomers

Some more modern lolitas w bloomers

>>9995638

>>9995639
It's a shame there's so few today. I think that bloomers+prints is even cuter than the oldschool plain/floral+bloomers

>>9995628
>>9995636
this so much. I was trying to explain what I love so much about bloomers to someone not interested in historical dress or j-fashion and I was sounding like a fucking weirdo. in the end I settled for "look, they're really warm ok?".
They're such a delicate and lovely part of historical clothing. I'm saving up for an aatp pair, it's like the same price as a second hand main piece but they're irresistible.

>Have you ever made a coord with peeking bloomers? What's your overall opinion of peeking bloomers?
I have, it's super cute. I think they're great. Bloomers in general are just great, they give you a bit more lift in your skirt, keep you warm, prevent the wind showing your ass if your skirt blows around, hide the tops of your socks, keep everything cleaner, and add more interest to an outfit.

That coord is rlly cute

I think colourful bloomers like pic related are also interesting

>>9995682

dont get me wrong, i think bloomers are super cute, but i feel like most peeking bloomers coords just look like dresses over long shorts which just gives me the same sort of proportion-based disgust as capris

damn this is indeed hella cute. do you have more?

This coord is high grade adorable but I feel like it'd look better on another girl.

I LOVE peeking bloomers in old school. I don't think it really looks right in most modern Lolita coords, but one exception to that is country lolita.

What are your favorite bloomers?

And do you have any offbrand reccomendations?

>>9995740
Feel this way about almost all her coords t b h

>>9995784
meta's raschel lace bloomers are my favorite.

I do not recommend f+f long bloomers unless you plan on changing the lace... the lace I received on mine was HORRIBLE. granted, I knew it might not be the same as in the pictures, as this was stated, but it also stated that it would be the same quality lace... mine was shiny and scratchy and literal shit. I've heard people recommend little dipper for bloomers, but have never bought a pair of my own. I honestly have only had luck with brand bloomers. I have several simple lucky pack bloomers from meta (none of which are long enough to peek, but they are very good quality), and a long pair of Baby torchon lace bloomers, and my meta raschel lace bloomers.

the only bloomers i own are the long kind. i will brave a self post with this slightest peek. no idea what kind they are but i need some more.

>>9995804
I think her biggest issue is modeling effectively; you can tell it's a good coord but it looks like it's wearing her

>>9995740
It just looks like this lady needs higher quality photography to work the lighting and angles into making it seem as if she's cute. This straight-on moonface look is doing no favors.

>>9995999
what a cute coord! your bloomers are just the perfect amount peeking imo.

>>9995999
Sailor lolita and bloomers: interesting combination! It's quite cute

>>9996242
I don't understand this comment. Bloomers are supposed to be worn under any coord regardless of theme, why do you think it's interesting in sailor specifically?

>>9995740
I feel bad that someone always comments this whenever she gets posted. She doesn't look fat, just average size, and apparently she's nice, so can we just admire the coord?

>Inb4 selfpost!!!
Not even in her comm, or country.

>>9996249
Maybe it means that she's not dressing or styling herself well, which is a shame because the coord is very cute and I'm sure she can look very cute too, in something that actually suits her.

>>9996249
I think most people don't have an issue with her size or the way she looks. It's more that she doesn't dress for her body shape. She has amazing coording skills but they often go wasted on boob-loafed or too-tightly fitting dresses. Another thing she does is using unnecessary belts or dresses with front corset lacing which really accentuate her apple shape in a bad way.

>>9995999
Very cute anon, can I ask where your shoes are from?

I would like to see more modern coords with peeking bloomers

>>9996248
Because, as this thread shows, old-school is prevalent by far. It's interesting to see peeking bloomers with different, more uncommon substyles.

>>9996249

honestly like >>9996268 and >>9996250 she could better style for her shape, and I think better angles and poses would do wonders for her. I want her to do really well, she seems genuinely nice.

>>9996285
Seconded

Such a good thread! It inspired me to finally make myself a white pair of long bloomers. Now I need more more more! Next up will be aquiring some good raschel lace I think.

>>9997953
That looks very cute! Will you post a full pic, or maybe a worn pic to show how long they are under a dress?

>>9997954
Thanks a lot Anon <3
I just quickly threw on my fav dress, I hope that's okay.

>>9997958
Oh wow the lace is a lot longer than it looks in the first pic, I love these! I do think that a pair with raschel lace will match this specific dress and socks better, but this is still adorable. Well done, anon!

>>9997959
I took a hint from BtSSB who sew multiple lengths of crochet lace together to create wider strips and did that myself.
I agree with you on the raschel lace though, hence why they are next on the list.
Thanks a lot!

>>9995784
Do you think it looks ugly or are you just not used to seeing it and that's why it doesn't feel right?

>>9997958
>>9997960
they look great! can't believe I hadn't thought of sewing multiple bits of lace together. I'm doing that next time I make bloomers, thx

>>9996242
it's interesting you say that because sailor lolita is literally based on old bathing suits, usually meant for girls. And "peeking bloomers" were part of those.

>>9996269
thanks. they're bodyline~ cute but scuff easily

>>9997963
The polished and smooth 50's look of a lot of modern lolita doesnt match the peeking bloomers.

>>9997998
Gosh, you're right. I hadn't though of that. Still, I maintain that I haven't seen sailor lolita + bloomers very often, so it's still interesting to me due to it's seeming rarity.

>>9998195
Meta released this set a while back, it's really not rare at all, you probably just haven't come across it yourself.

>>9998223
>you probably just haven't come across it yourself.
Yes. That's literally what I said.

Thoughts on Joybank bloomers? The Lolita Collective has some that look nice but I can't find them, or reviews, anywhere else.
