Not the anon you replied to, but I don't think it's about the girl. The dress she is wearing is Alice and the Pirates' Hymn Long jsk, and it came out in 2009.

Tea-length dresses are nothing new, it's only recently that they've become a fad. Floor length dresses are unusual, and more likely to have been a collab, but they also pre-date "art loli".

I think you're kind of marking how new you've been in the fashion if you think the poofy silhoutte is the only acceptable lolita silhoutte.

Not gonna lie, I am really new, but I just don't get how two dresses look so drastically different but both can still be called lolita. If you're saying these are lolita, then salopettes should also be lolita, because it's not about the shape at that point and anything that a brand puts out fits that style. Apparently I'm not the only one here with this mindset, so I don't think I'm completely off-base. Make a case for it, though, I'm all ears, I want to understand where you're coming from.

Have you looked at those dresses? How are they lolita? Brand does not equal lolita, I have an ap skirt so short that my butt practically hangs out of it. I think that to be lolita something has to be so if it came from an offbrand store, it would still be considered lolita. I think tea length and full length dresses are very elegant and cute, but not lolita. They are kind of like Victorian styled, more aristocrat than anything. And just because someone wears lolita doesn't mean that if they make a cute coord with a tea length dress it is
lolita too. For a fashion with so many rules that are so heavily enforced as this one, you all sure seem to break them a lot. And I'm perfectly fine with that. Just stop telling some people they are ita if they don't fit into said rules, and praising others for it.

Not new, been into this fashion for around 3 years.

Obviously I'm not speaking for everyone but I don't like glasses girl, I'm not jealous of her wardrobe, I'm not into sweet that much.
But she's just really obnoxious like I think she came on here being all like "LOL YOU DON'T LIKE MY GLASSES MAYBE I'LL GET EVEN BIGGER ONES JUST TO PISS YOU ALL OFF"
Also her hair. She wears the same wig all the time and doesn't even bother styling it, she just pins the fringe to the side and sticks an accessory on, she looks like a sceney kid.

The hate for her is her glasses. Everything else is fine but her glasses look so fucking stupid. They'd look stupid even if she wasn't wearing lolita. They're HUGE and they don't sit on her face right, and they don't flatter her face. They look like Groucho glasses, like her nose isn't real.

Everyone fawns over thin lolitas but to me stickly legs look terrible coming out of a poofy petticoat. It just looks really disproportioned and top-heavy, especially when the skirt goes past the knees.

I've only ever liked the thinness on chokelate and it's mainly because of her height.

The trouble is that you're trying to find ONE look that unifies all of lolita. Unfortunately for you, lolita started in, what, 80s? 70s? So that's 40? 50 years worth of evolution? Even if you look at mainstream fashion, 70s fashion is not today's fashion. Heck, even 80s fashion is not 70s fashion.

Half a century, anon. The style has been through trends. It's been through fads. It split up into many different substyles. Many things came in and then died out. AP went through a hime lolita phase where they released halterneck cutsews with arm warmers, with bare shoulders. Then we have salopettes that are being explained as lolita's fling with fairy kei. Now aatp is apparently trying out this steampunk business and brands are releasing muumuu-style dresses.

At the same time, fity years isn't all that long ago. I only got into lolita in 2006, that's not even a decade, and I still have a soft spot for hime lolita. There are girls who are into what lolita looked like pre-2006, aka old school lolitas. Every now and again a brand will bring back an old look for nostalgia's sake, baby in particular re-releases their old school stuff quite often (and it still sells steadily, from what I've seen). So while brands all seem to put more updated looks every GLB, which is why you think there is only one look, the older trends still stick around and there are still buyers for them. That's why you'll get such a huge variety of different styles.

What I'm saying is that lolita is much, much bigger than the small tiny box you're trying to fit it into.

Pic is vintage lolita, by the way. Victorian Maiden's Mermaid OP from 2001.

I wasn't around when she did that but I honestly don't think she's all high and mighty about it. Maybe she was just so sick of it that it provoked her to lash out about it, and I know she often lurks /cgl/ because she posts about it sometimes. But she definitely didn't handle that well because everyone knows you don't defend yourself on 4chan. This debate has happened so many times and she actually did buy tortoiseshell frames to go with lolita; I think that for some people it's jealousy but for others the glasses just piss them off, but either way I wish people would stop picking on her so much, she's legitimately a good person with what I consider to be a fantastic sense of style, sometimes things are a miss but lately they've all been hits to me. Just my two cents.

But that necklace isn't even unique or special--or particularly pretty. It won't add anything to your coord. It looks flimsy and cheap. The name "lolita" doesn't come from there. "Nymphets" use it because of the book's popularity and because they misunderstood the premise of the book.

It seems you care quite a lot that ignorant plebs make this mental short cut, or else you'd be fine wearing it.

Apparently sweet prints in black colorways isn't an unpopular hate but agreeing with all who said it. Rare that it looks good.
I seriously can't believe OTT sweet is a thing and wigs are commonplace but "zomg not a costume" is also still a thing. Normfags don't get it, stop being so annoyed by the expected.

I agree, most people get so butthurt when normalfags don't understand. WE may look at lolita on the internet all day and get 'desensitized' to it but normalfags will have never seen it. I just meant that wearing wigs I don't think automatically makes it a costume. That's what I disagreed with about your original statement. I'm not someone who bitches about the way normalfags treat us though. And tbh $70-100 wigs aren't going to be popstar quality but that kind of money isn't something to sneeze at either.

Either I suddenly aged a tremendous amount or someone can't math.

30-40 years. It wasn't really cohesive per-se until the late 90's and early 2000's but even then it's changed a great deal in the last 15 years. It's constantly evolving and changing with trends.

Yeah, I ballparked the figure. 1970 to 2014 is 44 years so I figure 40-50 years.

And yes, the point was that it wasn't really cohesive and it changed a lot, which is why lolita isn't defined by that poofy silhoutte alone.

Another thing is that newbies don't seem to know that neither burando nor GLB wrote the rulebook on lolita, western lolitas did, mostly as a response to newbies of that time not knowing how to lolita. So the lolita rules were never "lolita law" to begin with, they were more like observations guidelines on how to achieve lolita style.

I always thought the point behind making these was like lorem ipsumming a print layout, you take out some part of the "design" that you don't want the feedback on so that the critics can focus on the things you *do* want feedback on, such as the blue beret in this coord looking somewhat off.

I do get what you mean by the clothes sitting in different places once they're worn, I just usually take it for granted that the person posting it has the brains to wear clothes that fit them and just need a second opinion on the colours and motifs.

Ridiculous amounts of poof/wrong petti under a dress. It makes sense in sweet lolita but a huge petti in classic or sweet classic just looks off.

I love the long underskirts that have been coming out lately. I already have a black and a white one from Baby with an ivory one on the way. They're rarely coorded well outside of brand photoshoots though. The girls who wear them usually look like they're wearing a knee-length petticoat under it or no petticoat at all, so the shape is all wrong. Your petticoat should be almost as long as your underskirt for it to look right.

I think it is fine. The shape of the skirt doesn't matter in the underskirt case, but where it hits on your legs. I am 5"2 but even I have problems with short length jsks hitting above my knees. So I am planning on getting one that will bring my short skirts to an under knee length. It is when people wear underskirts that are unnecessarily long (full length), regardless of if they are tall or not, it looks ridiculous if you are going for lolita.

I think your actual peeve is with the misuse of floordinate photos. I've generally thought of them as a quick way to see if a group of items go together thematically and colour-wise. They're not not a good way to see if a girl would look good in them, because of the fit and grooming problems you mentioned earlier. From what you're describing, it sounds like some of those lolitas you take issue with are using them exactly to see if coordinates would look good, skipping the grooming and fit part entirely, rather than just using them to check the themes and colours.

Personally I find that most itas have a bucket list of excuses ready to explain why they look like such fails. The one time I tried to troubleshoot why an outfit looks bad on a 4channer (she self-posted and got shat on), she responded with a laundry list of reasons why her outfit is the way it is. So to me, using a floordinate and not bothering to check the fit of the items, or not bothering to groom themselves, is just another ita excuse that doesn't hold water.

It was a DDC coord where the girl used a prom dress as an overskirt or overdress because it was gold, the "overskirt" looked lopsided and stuck, which it was, because it was still attached to the zipper and the zipper was under the skirt, therefore pulling the "overskirt" lopsided. I didn't actually offer any critique until she asked what everybody hated about her outfit.

>"black dress with white detailing? AUTOMATICALLY ITA"
Of course oldschool-style outfits can look like shit, that's where the bxw=ita stereotype came from in the first place. But imo if someone has only been in the fashion for a few years and thinks something like pic related or >>7796309 is ita, they can fuck right off back to where they came from.

My other unpopular opinion is that people who have only been involved in lolita for <4 years or so are still relatively new. That doesn't mean they can't be good dressers or know their shit but whenever someone goes "I'm not a newfag! I've been into lolita for two years!" I just can't help but roll my eyes at them.

BTSSB puts out some seriously ita pieces and they make up for their boring print themes by rehashing old dress designs with maximum ruffles, laces, and accessories to distract the buyers.
Most people don't even remember a lot of the print names because they're so boring and un-noteworthy.
The only people who vehemently chase after BTSSB while putting down 'sweet' brands like Angelic Pretty are the equivalent of lolita hipsters who just want to look more mature than they actually are.

Agreed 100%.
You can't complain about coordinates that fit the silhouette and do everything right, but happen to be fandom inspired, saying, "But they make the fashion into a costume!" when we have pic related. It's cute, but no one is going to believe you if you say that it's a fashion that thousands of people wear daily.

Tell that to handful of brands and indie brands that release tea-length dresses and showcase them as lolita. The style is changing and becoming more lenient.

I've seen it in person since a friend from my comm got it. It's flimsy, smells like cheap material, and hers in particular had dents because it was used.

It hurts that I work with big brand purses at my job and girls are throwing $200+ dollars at something I would use to carry my dildo in, at best.

No "hate" exactly but have you tried many types of tea? I don't know how people can say they "don't like tea" because there's such a huge range of flavors and even if you don't like "real" tea from the tea plant there's gotta be an herbal or fruit tisane that strikes your fancy.

By being over 5'5"? Tall girls wear bigger sizes because proportions, obviously. 12 is a very typical size if you're 5'10" or so. Pic related is a US size 14 model.

It's like people think if THEY are obese at a size 10 or whatever, that everyone is.

I have yet to see "tall" on a label like for men (I've got 6'5" brothers that have a helluva time finding clothes). That's a 14, nothing added. SOMETIMES you see "tall" on pants, but never on dresses or shirts.

But a whole damn chunk of the store dedicated to "petites".

See, all these stones. It's not retarded to think to yourself, "gee, I wonder how very large women get to be that large if they care about their appearance." It's a sincere question. If they don't care, that's one thing. If they suffer through medical conditions (pregnancy included), that's another thing. But people who care enough about they look to spend hundreds on frilly dresses could probably stand to spend $15 a month on a gym membership.

For the depression issue, there is medication for that. I use a generic prozac. US doesn't have universal healthcare yet, but still, pills are cheaper than good lolita.

Idk a 14 is still reasonable. A UK 18 or US 14 is generically a 108-109 cm max bust which is generally the max of fully back shirred brand.

I'm around 6ft tall and a size 8 and I am at the max measurement for most partial shirred brand, and I have a 'healthy' BMI. I agree with this anon's sentiments though, anything bigger than a US size 14 or a 110 cm bust and just give up on lolita forever.

Depression meds cause serious weight gain. I gained 50 lbs because of them and hospitalization where they force you to eat large amounts of food three meals a day. I was 135 (I'm 5'9) before I got put on meds and shot up to the 190s within four months. I'm losing it now because I can finally be active without being exhausted all the time. Not being forced to sit around 24/7 by hospital staff helps too. I'm one of the luckier ones because I only gained 50, I've seen girls gain over a hundred after years of it. Some of them even make you always ravenously hungry too, for some reason they tried lithium on me (despite being for bipolar, not depression) and it made me constantly starving. Not just hungry that willpower can help, but starving like I haven't eaten in three days starving.

Depression anons, there actually is light at the end of the tunnel. Just be patient with the medication situation, it took over twenty meds and nearly a year before they finally found a combo that works for me! Combos do help btw, I had been on all of them as single doses and they didn't work until combined. I'm actually feeling things now, instead of being exhausted and numb all the time and have stopped cutting and trying to kill myself

Have some pills! Depression gone, problem solved! They have been beneficial to many people and have their merits but it's very often not that simple. If this isn't a semi-successful troll then I fear you have far too much of a black & white outlook on things.

More like "old and not used to this here". I took a years-long break from regularly browsing 4chan and I'm still getting used to how much it's changed. Years ago, I won't even say "this kind of shit wouldn't have been tolerated!" - no, more like it never would have come up at all, people would have been too ashamed to talk about it here. It's weird to see people offering support for fatties and anons who talk about their weight/depression/meds openly. I'm not even saying "this is awful and I hate it", just that this is really, really weird to me.

Flouxetine (sp?) is an anti-depressant, I take it in combination with Abilify, and (unrelated) amphetamine salts, with an as-needed anti-anxiety I can't remember the name of.

If you have a better anti-depressant to recommend, fire away, but flouxetine is pretty well trusted, even if you consider it mother's little helper.

It's very mild. I'm currently on Paxil, lamictil, and remeron, along with Xanax and adderal. Everyone's depression is different but Prozac is the first go to because it's so mild in comparison to the others and has the least side effects. Sort of like how you'd be suggested ibuprofen for pain before they'd put you on opiates.

My mother's on lamictil and xanax, maybe I'll ask about them. Mental illness is often genetic from what I understand, so maybe what works for her will work better for me. I haven't had as much improvement on Prozac as I would've liked. I've actually been irritable and sad a lot lately.
