But lolita is an overall fashion subculture, not a single designer. So it shouldn't matter if someone has Bodyline, offbrand, or replicas so long as they get the aesthetic correctly.

Just because you throw these silly analogies around doesn't mean we have to accept them.

What am I going to do? Call the police on her? It's not a matter of letting people "get away" with anything, it's the fact what she decides to spend her money on is her business and nobody else's. So long as she's not advertising it as the real thing, I see no issue here. No matter how much people whine, people aren't going to stop buying replicas.

I personally don't support replicas, but I'm not going to shit over people who do.

China's copyright laws are notoriously lax/not really enforced since ultimately the Chinese believe in making money and replicas sell well, plus whoever owns the factories probably owns a government official or two as well. The police do have a presence at the big replica markets but sellers are largely unpoliced, and just put their direct replicas under the counter and their very slightly modified replicas on display. The other side of the coin is of course that China believes in saving face, so it has to be seen to be doing something which in this case is opening parcels and letting postal workers take some stuff they like which is of course handy because they can track and collect statistics on how many contraband items they've seized and be seen to be 'doing something'

lolita started on the streets of Japan? Do you think they all wore brand? No... The point in the fashion that originated in the 90s were expressionism, creativity, rebelling against the strict pressures to conform.

They MADE their own dresses, they wore what they could find. They wore brand, or they wore whatever they could afford. And it's was beautiful...

What the HELL is wrong with you people? You're RUINING LOLITA! You're making it lose all creativity and spirit until it becomes as soul-less as any bullshit fashion. If the original lolitas were to look at you now... or even most lolitas living in Japan. It's not the bodyline and replica wearers that would be called "non-lolitas".
It's the fucking snobs that spend all their fucking money on brand and think that makes them a good lolita.

That's bullshit. You ever met a lolita in Japan? The majority of Japanese are ALL about brands and labels, lolitas are no exception.

[Anonymous No.6773106]

>>6773101
You get it! Someone actually gets it!
Lolita DID start out being made by hand! That's why there's patterns in Bibles! To help lolitas sew their own things! Lolita was about self-expression, not owning each new print. Prints weren't even a thing to begin with!

Street fashion is not a fucking popularity contest. You idiots treat it like you're in fucking highschool and OMG guise! Lisa has the hot new whatever it is. That's why comms are a joke. All of you act like bratty little highschool shits starting rumors, with your secrets, vendettas and backhanded comments. All of you are just immature brats with money.

Considering that some of the brands started in late 70s-early 80s, then yes I bet in the 90s that at least some of them wore brand.
And in Japan, Bodyline and replicas are very much looked down upon.

[Anonymous No.6773135]

>>6773114

Agreed.
Thinking you're superior because you can afford to spend all your money on brand instead of important things just makes it obvious that they're either.

1. Flashing daddy's credit card.
2. flashing boyfriends credit card.
3. flashing husbands credit card.
4. have to idea how to spend money sensibly.
5. Have a job to pay for lolita, but are so completely shallow and self-absorbed that they have no problem spending thousands a month on their clothes.

[Anonymous No.6773136]

Replicas obviously, bodyline, it's a sex shop. Handmade? No. Like I said, it's not a popularity contest. It's a street fashion that started in Japan to try to combat conformist society and promote individuality.

[Anonymous No.6773137]

>>6773135
>thousands a month
You have no idea how discretionary spending works. Even if someone spends $500 a month on lolita they'd build up an insane closet within a year. You don't need to be Paris Hilton for this shit.

Oh noes, someone doesn't like the same thing as I do, what a disaster.

Some people like lolita because they just want to wear pretty dresses. Some people like lolita because they want to collect an impressive wardrobe. Some people like a bit of both. Chill the fuck out, you sound like a 13 year old.

[Anonymous No.6773144]

So you're bashing someone who was telling off people who were bashing someone else for not being ~true lolita~ just because they don't own brand?

Did you read the thread?
You are like balls to the wall stupid.

[Anonymous No.6773150]

I never said that handmade was looked down upon. In fact, GOOD handmade items are highly praised.
Replicas and Bodyline are looked down upon because they're crappy. By wearing them, you are basically saying "I don't care about lolita, I just wanted to wear some cheap crap with no effort". It shows that you have zero interest or devotion. And as superficial as it may sound, that's important.

[Anonymous No.6773152]

>>6773150
But lolita's not really about devotion it's about looking out of the norm, yet still within the lines of the fashion.

[Anonymous No.6773153]

I'd say that putting effort into your appearance and having some devotion in the fashion is a necessity

Your post was needlessly dramatic. I agree the brand isn't the be all and end all, but there's no need to be such a child about it. People on BOTH sides of the replica/brandwhores debate need to calm the fuck down and have a lollipop or something.

[Anonymous No.6773164]

It wasn't even my post you idiot, you just seem stupid. It's not a debate about replicas vs brandwhores anyway it's about people being ~less lolita~ Also if both sides need to calm down go further up in the thread and talk to those idiots.

Well what if I felt that fat girls ~ruined lolita~? Would I throw a tantrum about it? No, because guess what? You can't control anybody else's behaviour. If other people are remotely capable of ruining a hobby for you by having different opinions to you, you need to reconsider your attitude to that hobby.

Original lolita here!

Sorry but everyone I know that wore lolita 10+ years ago feels the same way. Wearing knock off copies of brand clothing is far far less creative than just wearing a nice dress in an interesting coord. It'd be great if there was more sewing like there used to be, but replicas and bodyline are sucking the 'soul' out of lolita, not the fact that people don't like them

[Anonymous No.6773226]

This thread is just stupid.

Lolita is going to be different to everyone who wears or even tries to wear it. There's no reason why any should be half as upset in this thread.

I appreciate the asthetic but I mix and match for more of an otome-influenced wardrobe then a straight lolita one. Does it make me less of a lolita? Who gives a shit? I love my clothes and their potential. That's what is important to me. Peachie doesn't want to buy brand. That's okay too.

The only solid rule of lolita ever would be a damn petticoat. Can't think of anything.

[Anonymous No.6773236]

I don't think there's anything wrong with having a closet full of bodyline. Replicas are another thing, though. If you like the print/design so much you should at least try to get the original first.

Seriously it drives me nuts that people think there are two types of lolita:
>$600 brand
>Shitty $40 replica

No, there are a HOST alternatives: Indie brands, Taobao brands, Bodyline, Anna House, F+F, secondhand, etc.

Half of my closet is brand and I have only ever paid more than $200 for one dress. The other half is made up of those other brands. I don't own one replica.

While I don't necessarily care what ohter people do with their money, I hate that excuse.

But this gif really shows how much bulk lolita can put on when applying more and more lolita type clothing. That's why I'm afraid in investing in a lolita coat because it will make me look bigger.

[Anonymous No.6778241]

>>6778217
I think the .gif is rather good at showing how different types of clothes and combinations can make you look bigger or smaller.

If you're worried about a coat making you look big, I rather dislike double breasted coats because I feel that makes the chest look broader. Go for a single breasted coat with a distinct waistline.
