Some conventions do have Lolita but every con thread in my area area for the last 3 years or so has had issues where lolitas pop in and complain about there not being enough lolita panels/tea parties/guests or say the organizers are anti-lolita. The local comm got so bad last year the con chair came into the thread himself to say that the con didn't have an anti-lolita bias, they just don't make money for what it costs so it got canceled.

The spoiled, entitled behavior they keep showing pisses off cosplayers who just want to talk about a con. It's like if fursuiters came into a thread for an anime con and bitched about not enough anthro content.

instead, you get mini political rallies with an extra dose of autism. Seriously, fuck off with your "this character whose sexuality is literally never mentioned is DEFINITELY G A Y and if they're not i'm TAKING THEM BACK >:^)". On top of that, the community is fake as fuck; they do the whole "UWU DRINK WATER AND NO BULLY" and then they talk mad shit about other people for literally no reason.

Casual cosplays and closet cosplays are totally different. A closet cosplay is literally in the name for throwing on whatever is in your closet. A casual cosplay could include items from your closet, but that would be mere coincidence rather than intentional. There are casual outfits for certain characters or fanart with casual outfits that can look really good, but would require more than a bare minimum effort which wouldn't make it a bad costume. My gripe is that people who do closet cosplays consider them to be complete costumes. It's not the full thing and shouldn't be considered like it. Buying just the wig for a character can and should never be considered a finished cosplay, it's a makeup test at best.

I'm on the fence over this, I do it too, mind you with lots of effort, and I honestly just cannot get into any other show, so all my cosplays are from the same show all the time. What varies is the make-up work, the props, the detail on each costume even if it's very simple. Sometimes I pick the easy ones but just try to nail being as perfect as I can. I do worry what people think that this is all I have, but then I'm doing it for me so... And to break up the monotony, I post pics of all the other people I get cosplay photos of, too, because I'm sure they'd like to see those.

I do get frustrated by the people who don't even make a cosplay and do the same thing, though. I always wonder if my own posts are annoying.

Also to me its one of the most low-effort 'cosplays' out there - I guarantee most of the people who cosplayed from it bought all of it and would never cosplay the original splash art of eve, kai'sa, akali, or ahri (well except ahri, but I consider ahri cosplayers automatic e-thots. that's another thing but it doesn't grind my gears as much lol)

i can't stand most genderbend cosplays. wouldn't mind at all if people would take the character's personality into account. ie, a hypermasculine dudebro character would probably at least be a short-haired tomboy as a girl, not a girl with super long beautiful hair and three pounds of makeup. basically reposting what someone else said on the bad shoop thread but i agree with it so much: genderbending a character wouldn't change their entire personality and aesthetic. plus when they're good i can really get behind them but the majority of the time i just feel like it's an excuse to be lazy for people (mainly girls) who don't want to even attempt crossplay

The last one is because of a special incident where I was on my way to the bathroom since I had a few minutes before hosting a panel and someone asked to take my photo. I said “sorry, but no. I have to use the bathroom but I’ll be in room xyz later if you want to come by and take a pic then.” This beast of a woman then proceeded to follow me while telling me how rude it was to be dressed up in an “attention drawing” outfit but not allow people to take pictures. Something about how I was stuck up because I was wearing brand and that I shouldn’t be dressed up if I didn’t expect people to take pics, “at least I ASKED, I could have just taken one it’s a free country” and other random shit talking. I turned around and screamed “LOOK I HAVE TO PISS AND IM WEARING 4 PETTICOATS PLEASE” it was a photo finish, pun intended. I made it to the bathroom in time and thankfully she was gone when I left. I never met anyone who felt so entitled to a photo before.

I've had that happen to me and I wasn't even towards the front of the line, honestly I was closer to the back of the crowd. I had stayed up late the night before to finish a hair prop that I had spent about a month making. It was lightweight and was shorten than the width of my body, so it shouldn't have been an issue; but, within 5 minutes of walking through the dealer's room doors, some asshole bumped into me and sped off, knocking my months of work and hours of sleep lost on the floor, ruining it instantly.

There are countless of normie fashion shows you could go for. Modeling for a brand is an honor and a true experience for people who actively participate in the fashion. To these normal people, it’s just another thing to add to their portfolio and the coordinates are just clothes.

While yes you’re right, designers want a certain look. Having the choosing pool get flooded by normie models lowers your chances to even be SEEN as an option. And fuck yeah I’m pissed off and salty about it. I have been in many shows so I know my look is good enough to be a model for brands. But this year 90% of the fashion show was done using regular VOGUE-esque runway models who knew nothing of the fashion and couldn’t pose/walk for shit despite having the experience. Why? Because they’re not lolitas.


Working with a brand is one of the most rewarding feelings you can have as a lolita. It is an honor to have them dress you and help with last minute prep like tying your bows or fluffing your petticoat. I think it’s really low that a regular model would venture as far as going to an anime convention to model for BABY because they just wanted another fashion show under their belt.

The intention is not the same, the experience is not the same. Hence why:

Nayrt but ballgown cosplay - basically when someone turns a character into a themed ballgown. And I agree with it.

It got momentarily popular to do it after the "Taco Belle" girl and the girl who made the totoro dress (dustbunny I think?) did it. But usually the dresses are poorly executed, they look like they belong at a sweet 16 or quinceañera party rather than a convention. Obviously disney princesses have ballgowns, but it looks super tacky for stuff like pokemon and whatnot.

there are a lot of fat lolitas whether anyone likes it or not, so featuring plus size models is def a smart move

[Anonymous No.10199383]

>>10199379
Featuring plus models that don’t leave a good impression with a flattering fit is really not a good move for the brand or any of the potential customers regardless of size. Plus models unfortunately have more fit issues, it’s wise to pay attention to that.

[Anonymous No.10199448]

>>10199379
It's not a smart move. Fat people don't all uniformly put on fat the same way. Some fat people are stomach heavy, some are hips-heavy, some are top-heavy, and getting a garment to consistently look good on people who vary that widely in fit and size is an exercise in futility. Not to mention that fashion shows are about showcasing beauty of the garments, and the beauty of a model can affect whether or not we think their appearance and clothing is a desirable look for ourselves. Our society still finds fat people to be less attractive than slimmer people. For the same reason, they pick women with traditionally pretty facial features rather than, say, women with mustaches, crooked teeth, or unibrows. Those are also features our society has deemed unattractive. Models are meant to be ideal versions of how we'd like to be seen in the garments. Fat or ugly is not how most people want to be perceived.

Didn't she just get married? Where are you getting all this info from??

[Anonymous No.10203788]

>>10203750
There was a lot of earlier drama, fats badgering her to make bigger dresses, thin people complaining, some of her really big dresses just being bigger all over, Iit's expensive to correctly redraft larger patterns for fatty and do 2 production runs, not just super-size smaller patterns, which is exactly what she did. But fats aren't usually any taller and their limbs aren't usually proportionately longer. Haenuli’s dress fitting went to shit once she made for the fats consistently and her sales went down, be designs no longer filling her pre-order quotas well.

Brands catering to fatties instead of tall (or extremely short) girls. Weight is something you could change, so why try to make them feel good by getting them clothes that fit (don't answer that, I know that it's because of profit).
Nevertheless, I can't help but feel salty about it; a tall, skinny girl will always look a billion times cuter than a hambeast.

On another note, imo you should always choose to cosplay a character whom you naturally resemble. That goes for weight, skin colour (sorry) and also height. I'm tall, I know that I wouldn't suit some tiny lolibait ones, but same goes for short girls and overly strong/sexy characters as well. Recently I saw a group of asian k/da cosplayers and their legs were about half as long as the original. I know that they can't help it, but it looked ridiculous.

Expecting someone to change themselves so they can be with you is about as toxic as fat incels complaining about how no fit cosplay qt wants to fuck them. That's not how you build a proper foundation for a relationship. Instead try looking for someone you're actually compatible with and build up something great together.

If you don't like fat gamer fucks, just don't pursue them. Fat gamer fuck pursues you? Just turn them down. Hopefully one day they'll realise how delusional they are being for expecting to land a hot cutie when their looks and complete lack of a personality. But hey, at least they won't tell you to get fat and play more games so they can have a chance with you.

Why should I have to go to the gym, take care of my skin and hair, do my makeup, and dress nice when my partner won’t put in the same effort? These guys have the time to play hours of games when they get home, so they have the time to not look disgusting. I’m just saying if the pool of nerdy guys was less gross then nerdy girls would feel less encouraged to be gross in return, but keep defending your ways lol

I'm not saying you should be with some lazy fat fuck and accept he is a fat fuck, I'm saying you should be with someone you're compatible with. I mean seriously, what's the point of being in a relationship if you can't accept eachothers looks or personality? Realistically speaking all you achieve by doing just that is wasting eachothers energy for as long as you're together.

The amount of hate that any girl who isn't entirely skinny gets is annoying, I understand not wanting to see obese hamplanets, but slightly chubby girls or curvy girls (as in, hourglass or near hourglass but with some chub) can be really cute if they carry their weight well. I'm not saying you have to like them, if you prefer skinny people then go ahead and prefer them, but it's not too much to ask of that you let other people find other body types attractive or cute. and yeah I know, this board is supposed to be mean and critical, etc etc. it's just annoying and completely unnecessary to have people spam "ew fat lose weight" anytime they see anyone not entirely skinny

>I’m tired of “gaming” being every nerdy guy’s one and only hobby. It’s not much better than your hobby being Netflix. Put in the work equal to the amount the girls you want do, you fat gamer fucks

Meh, I'm a fat dude that goes offroading, hunting, fishing and does competition BBQ and there are plenty of women here in the south that are compatible with me so I'm good.

What do you bring to the table?

Why would you even reply if it’s not applicable then? You have real hobbies yet sound so bothered. Weird, no one likes a paranoid person, it’s self-centered

So you can't land your dream husband and instead want some loser you can land to turn themselves into what you are looking for? That's messed up anon.

Nah, most people at cons don't care at all. I'd much rather see a beginner's homemade cosplay even if it's seriously flawed than another goddamned bought aliexpress cosplay of the same dozen or so characters.
