Sustainable EcoFriendly Frillies

lolita needs a public image makeover, next time someone boggles at how much you paid for a weird ass dress tell them at least you are not supporting the human rights abuse committed by fast fashion.

if they say "you dress like a little girl" tell them "at least i'm not covered in the blood of the thousands of workers killed in factory collapses in Bangladesh"

This has been a major, widely discussed topic for well over a decade, especially in this fashion, and John Oliver was what made you start wondering this?

In Japan, clothes being made in China doesn't automatically mean they were made in sweatshops the same way it does in the USA. I don't know for a fact if that's the case for AP, but I've been told that their Chinese factories aren't sweatshops, just cheaper that making them in Japan.

there is a difference between incredulity, annoyance, contempt, and anger. you haven't been tracking it well.

the only reason i drew this out this long is for people who are reading. you favor policing people's tones and emotions; i favor policing how people organize threads and how much effort they put into creating content.

>> No.8519104

I don't see how that could be considered terrible at all. It's pretty standard to want exact measurements, especially for a dress you're probably dropping upwards of 100 dollars on. I'm surprised you don't already ask for them. I'm also petite so I won't buy something unless I know for sure it will fit me, or at least come close.

There's a difference between asking for the dresses measurements and asking for the seller's own measurements, though. I understand that anon wouldn't want to buy from someone who stretches dresses beyond their capacity but if people feel that you're implying that they're too big for the dress they're selling they might get offended.
Personally I stay away from sellers who say things like "lolibrary says max measurements but it stretches bigger" and in doubt, I check out the person's pictures and if they're significantly bigger than I am I don't buy from them.

I think asking about the condition of the shirring is reasonable though. Because if it's been stretched enough that anon would need to get the elastics replaced, then it should count as damage of some sort. But yeah, there really isn't much of a delicate way to approach the subject unless the seller mentions it first. Maybe you could phrase it something like "What are the flat measurements of the dress when it's not worn?" or something.

Different anon, but let me get this straight; you're accusing them of "policing" people's tones and emotions just because they called someone salty, yet you're the one telling them they shouldn't be voicing their thoughts? Anon has just as much right to voice their opinion that other anon was salty as that anon has to be kind of a dick while telling OP how we do things. Neither has more right to than the other. It's fine that you prefer to call out the people who do things that aren't kosher to the board, rather than the people with an unneccesary attitude over trivial things, but that doesn't mean you're the only one allowed to post what you think.

Actually, I was saying you were telling her what not to say because by the standards you've exhibited having, you were. I don't think of debates as telling someone what not to say, but you're the one who accused her of "policing" people's tones and emotions just for saying she thought other anon was being salty. So, by your own standards, you were policing her tones and emotions, too.

>> No.8519207

Considering that nowhere on the entire board is there a "how to create a general" and the lack of redirection links is nothing more than a minor inconvenience, I'd say it's fair to call it salty to have an attitude when telling someone to include them.

Batshit crazy as this sounds, lolita was actually the main thing keeping me form committing suicide when I was severely depressed.

What would happen to my wardrobe? My parents and boyfriend have no idea about the second hand market. It would suck for them to have to sell everything, but donating it would be a waste of money. And who would the clothes go to? Would the people who bought them be able to coord them nicely?

Most of my wardrobe is either secondhand or bought from physical stores so I'd say dress seeing as punctuality has never been an issue I've ever encountered. Having said that though, unless a dress is dream-tier, I probably wouldn't give money to stores who have bad customer service or can't keep a schedule.

Unfortunately Antoinette Fleur's a thing so I'm preparing my anus for the inevitable month-long delay.

"Complex PTSD" or attachment trauma can result from a caregiver's emotional withdrawal, manipulation, etc. if you have a good attachment to your caregiver(s) it is likely a different issue, yes.

people with "overactive imaginations" tend to present as disorganized rather than anxious, so do not dismiss it as that.

i often feel the way you are describing, to the point where i feel people are looking through my eyes or somehow monitoring what i do, every car that drives by is gojng to gun me down for no good reason or because i broke a rule i was not aware of... for me i believe it is a combination of genetic predispositions (including an immediate family member with schizophrenia) and traumatic attachment (the fear of random violence fits with what i experienced as a child: not knowing what would result in negative attention, being on edge and feeling controlled or monitored, etc.).

i hope you can pinpoint the cause, anon. i can assure you it is not out of nowhere. even if it is just faulty brain wiring, i hope you can at least know why it is happening.

Is lolita anyone elses dirty little secret? I know all that "you shouldn't care what anyone else thinks, its your money etc" but I'd just die if anyone in my family found out. That and at times it feels like mission impossible when I indulge in it whilst living at home.

This has been so helpful for me anon, I've been looking at stuff about it ever since you posted it.

My parents used to get mad at me for no reason. They still do sometimes. But instead of telling me to go to my room or talking it out, they would make me leave the house and lock all of the doors. Sometimes physically, sometimes not. Day or night, raining, storming, winter in pyjamas. Didn't matter.
I'd find things that made me happy - games, books, etc. If I spent too long with those things, rather than a warning, they would take them away. Destroy them. Forever.

This gave me horrible anxiety issues. I can't trust anything anymore and I am too scared to do the things I enjoy because I don't want them to go away. I can't trust anything. Life too, just when I start to feel good something always happens that wrecks it.

May not have been the most tactful thing to say to her at the time, but I'm happy someone did, because every single one of us was thinking it at the time.

Way to make all kinds of judgements without knowing jack shit about their situation. First of all, what kind of wonderland do you live in where everyone has access to free mental health aid? Secondly, the "but we're so much better off than most in the world!" argument can be applied to literally anyone. Those starving children in Africa? Well, they have it better than FGM victims. Those FGM victims? Well, they have it better than trafficked sex slaves. Those trafficked sex slaves? Well, there's people in the world somewhere who have it worse then them. It doesn't make suffering any less valid.

what the hell was wrong with your parents? i am so sorry. are you away from them?

the brain makes connections when we're kids that can be difficult to undo. it sounds like you are experiencing emotional flashbacks and they take time to get through and reduce. your brain is predicting a reality that existed when you were a kid, but that reality doesn't exist outside of the little world your parents control(led). what they did was selfish and unfair and, frankly, infuriating to read.

it's not like bad things will never happen, but the world of, say, lolita cannot be taken away. even if something bad happens, the dresses, coords, comms, etc., will still be there when the bad event passes. it's an idea out in the world, not something someone can snatch away.

if you haven't looked into the subreddit /raisedbynarcissists that might be helpful too. i hate reddit but that particular spot is a good resource for people who had shitty, self-absorbed parents.

Let me raise you an edge, kiddo:

What if I told you that none of it fucking matters. The people who were/are suffering or dying or both were going to be in that situation regardless of what another random person chooses to do with their life. It's good to do good with your life if you find nothing else to live for, but if there's nothing worth living for to an individual then they have no obligation to continue to live. It doesn't make them selfish for making the choice to end a life that they were never given the choice to live to begin with. It does not fucking matter.

And unless any of you accomplish something great (i.e. the lightbulb), anything inconsequential you do will be forgotten about in about three more generations. Live for happiness, or don't live at all. You don't know about the billions of nameless people who died before you on this planet, and you are doomed to not know the billions that come after you when you are gone. So don't be so mighty.

A few months ago my mom put my favourite jsk on the ground and stepped on it to "prove a point". So I got into lolita because it was a "safe" hobby, ain't no way they will destroy my hundred dollar dresses. But that's a lie. Nothing is safe.

If there were a Mucha dress available which actually made a proper border print out of his artwork/his style rather than slapping the entire paintings down as panels, would people REALLY want it?

This is something that I've seriously considered for a while, but I'd have to use Spoonflower for custom printing, and they'd end up fairly expensive as a result. $250-300 mark for a JSK.

Chinese workers in general.

It depends on the contractor that the company hired. For instance, Apple hired Foxconn, a taiwanese contractor infamous for making megafactories. Even in China, they're relatively notorious and seen as having some of the worst factory conditions.

Who knows who AP contracts though. CG anon once said that smaller companies, and especially Chinese indie, tend to hire more 'aunties with sewing machines' that work in better conditions than your usual mega sweatshop factory.

And for a more interesting take on it, these sweatshops are actually a good way of providing women in developing countries such as China, and now Bangledash, with financial independence.

Everything is problematic I think, there's more than one way we can look at the growing pains of a gigantic ass industrializing nation with different values from ours. I'm not comfortable with it by any means, but there's a lot more to it than the Foxconn factories that were on the news so much lately.

@All the people complaining about the fabric: The fabric looks like how some AatP's printed chiffon pieces look in stock pics. I have a lot of them and they look sooo much better in person and don't have that "washed out" look at all. Y'all should also stop judging so hard from the whopping two shitty pics we got. The model shot doesn't show off the navy very well and it's AatP 101 that the brown print colorways always look like shit compared to the rest.
