the last one autosaged. on this board, when a thread is at 300 replies it stops being bumped to the top when people respond. this means it sinks lower and lower and eventually disappears.

the other one was called Lolit General but the OP clearly meant it to be for online comms, which is obvious if you read OP's intro and the post that follows it.

shit is gotten quite together.

Dolly Cat for the win, anon.

Also, general question: How long does it take you to get ready when you're going full OTT mode? And do you need to touch up your wig, headdress, makeup, props, and all that more often? I can spend an hour or more getting ready in a regular, pre-planned coord, and I do touch-ups every couple hours, but I'm planning my first OTT coord for a fancy meet and wonder how much more maintenance they usually are.

DLS is JM's mom who doesn't want to dress too young. JM is otome/cute, DLS is vaguely boho. There are exceptions (I have a gorgeous Dans le Salon otome style coat) but generally DLS will be older in style with looser, larger cuts.

It takes me about 2-2 1/2 hours when I'm doing OTT. I usually check up on how I'm looking every few hours, more if it's hot or I'm moving around a lot more outdoors. I think it honestly depends on what style or how many elements you have going on. If it's just a ton of accessories, checking the placement of them throughout the day and the usual. If you're doing something really elaborate you may want to make sure that shit is secured and you'll want to check it often.

[Anonymous No.8533925]

>>8533850
I'm really, really slow at doing makeup (I don't use it very often), so it usually takes me about an hour to 90 minutes to get ready normally. For OTT, it's about two hours, and I constantly touch my head to make sure I didn't lose half of my accessories or the weight hasn't shifted my wig. Pin everything on like your life depends on it.

i'm not typically an ap fan, but i'm in love with dollycat. what are my chances of getting something in the re-release? It seems ridiculously popular, should I give up and go for it 2nd hand later?

[Anonymous No.8533976]

Does anyone else feel like Lolita, as a subculture, has been reduced to a flavour-of-the-month-print popularity contest? I also feel like brands have way too much influence over us. No matter what shit AP throws out, it'll be bought up.

Don't get me wrong, I love AP, and I own a lot of brand clothing, but I just miss there being a lot of handmade or small brand in the scene. A subculture is surely dictated by the followers, not by clothing companies?

[Anonymous No.8534008]

>>8533976
not really. for some people, yes, but not everyone cares. i don't know many names of prints, myself. i care when a coord looks good and when i have positive or constructive interactions with people.

for someone addicted to the fame or attention, though, it might be as you describe.

[Anonymous No.8534010]

>>8533976
Yes, yes and yes. I agree 100%. The sad thing is those days I was a student with no fashion sense, now I can afford the fashion there aren't many non brand release discussions around. It's very difficult to find people just to talk about small things like what you said.

I feel that majority of the girls refuse to even talk about lifestyle because 'it's just clothes' 'you wear what you want k' etc. I don't know where to find people that treat lolita as a special fashion and soul(? OK i just couldn't think of another word on top of my head, you know what I mean, I hope) package.

[Anonymous No.8534051]

I know this is very vague, but hopefully some gulls can help me out.

I'm trying to find an accessory shop, a specific one. I remember it catering to sweet lolita and fairy-kei sort styles. I distinctly remember them selling a lot of really cute, really neat bear accesssories. Bears as cookie earrings, bears as brooches, and also some very cute fuzzy bat-type clips and stuff. It's in my head that they're based in Eastern Europe somewhere, and that they were either on storenvy or etsy. I remember their stuff looking very well-made and neatly presented, but after that it's a blank.

I'm honestly going crazy because I remember them being easy to find, so maybe they've closed down? I guess it's worth asking here anyway.

Really? I went in summer and it was more like a lot of dresses from axes femme, ankh rouge or similar that had a sort of frilly lolita aesthetic, but weren't actually lolita. That, or outright otome. The actual lolitas buyin stuff in La Foret or Amerimura still dolled up with petticoat.

Real hair is indeed more common though.

they are also afraid of sharing content for fear not enough people will notice. all the talk about going back to LJ, or sharing simpler coords, is usually paired with, "l can't do that because nobody else will do it or care."

I'm guessing one print will be rereleased this weekend since there was no news on what print is coming out for this week. And Dolly Cat's colors are so hideous, especially Sax. I sold the black and lavender JSKs I bought because the background colors clashed with the print too much.

[Anonymous No.8534196]

Well the handmade thread is dead and gone. So question time. Picked this up to us as a border on either a dress or jsk. I'm thinking black dress, but should I do black lace/ruffle with grey or white accents, or stick to mostly just all black?

The other option I'm thinking is maybe a dark grey dress with black accents and lace.

I think a black dress would be easier to work with, but maybe the grey would be more visually interesting?

[Anonymous No.8534200]

Anons, please help.

I just received a velveteen dress in the mail that is 10+ years old. It looked to be in pristine condition. I tried it on and put my arms up to put a collar on.. when a part of the sleeve suddenly rips. It looks like it was the fabric gave way and not threads. I assure you I am not a ham planet. In fact it's quite loose on me.

I ordered it from Wunderwelt.. there probably isn't much hope for asking for a partial refund when they didn't send it like that?

I feel you anons. I have ass long hair and curling it takes about 1 1/2 hours. My hair looks pretty neat when properly styled BUT I live in a windy coastal area and about 10 minutes after leaving my house my hair ends up looking like a huge mess and after a few more hours at a meet it envolves into a birds nest. It really sucks, because many outfit shots are being ruined by this. I used to hate wigs, but I'm getting more and more considerate with the years passing...

This happened to a Jane Marple dress of mine that I bought NWT a year ago. I wore the dress a lot though, also washed it a lot. But still, there is a risk to brand of all ages.

I guess it has to do with thinning of the fibers of the fabric due to wear, storage, aging or cleaning, until only a sligh stretch causes them to rip. Even if the dress "seems" like new on first glance, it might not be in perfect condition at all.

The fabric looks kind of thinned out in your picture, indeed. Did wunderwelt describe it as in perfect condition? Maybe if you write them and explain nicely what happened they might be up for a refund. And if not, they at least should be made aware to check their items more carefully before describing it as new.

[Anonymous No.8534299]

>>8533850
I take about 3 to 4 hours to go OTT since I use my real hair and take forever with make-up. I usually pre-plan all of my coords out with accessories and a week before the meet, I test out my hairstyle with all the accessories to see if I look OTT enough, if I should take out something or add in more things.

When I am doing touch ups, oil blotting paper is a miracle since it wipes off sweat, oils from makeup or even a bit of dirt that must of gone to contact with you. Also tip, nails make a huge difference with going OTT so maybe if you can, do something cute that matches your coord.

[Anonymous No.8534303]

>>8534257
Damn, that does look like the fabric is torn around the corners.
You can still try carefully easing it in and sewing the hole shut per hand, since the tear doesn't seem to be too deep. Have a seamstress or tailor look over it if you're not confident in your sewing though. It definitely looks fixable!

Thanks anon. You are a sweetheart. Somehow the whole situation at first left me feeling really confused. I'd never rip a piece of clothing like this in my life. My next thought was that I was fat or something and caused it to rip..

Is velveteen more prone to this kind of damage? Was it not a good idea to buy such an old velveteen piece? I have some very old Meta velveteen pieces I'd like, but maybe not..

To be fair, Wunderwelt did not describe it in perfect condition. But it honestly doesn't have a worn feeling to it at all. I have some newer velveteen pieces only released a couple of years ago and they definitely feel worn.

I asked one girl for a picture in La Foret since I really liked her coord, she seemed a little confused at first but was very nice about posing with me. I felt a little too awkward to ask anyone else after that because I think people would probably be too polite to turn the gaijin tourist down (even though I was in lolita) lol.
My friend however would ask just about every girl in a seifuku for a picture though and those high school girls fucking loved it, I would literally take 50 pictures while my friend asked them for different poses.This was in Harajuku so maybe it's something about the type of girl who shops there...

I see a difference in style than trends in other countries for lolita coords. Even though we are all in the same fashion, a Japanese lolita coord vs a Western lolita coord that you find usually on CGL look completely different. Not in the sense of the way lolita looks but likethe vibe of it? I don't know how to put it in words but if you would put a pic side by side, you can tell it's lolita but it just looks so different.

Does anyone have experience with how well AP's prints on velvet hold up over time? I just got my first one, and it's a super heavy printing with sparkly ink, and I'm afraid to have it sit up against other dresses in my closet in fear that it might rub off or fade over time.

Question!! I am a newer lolita and I was curious if these shoes would be alright in a coord? I only ask because the royal blue color is the exact match of the accent color on the JSK and the handbag.

I wish people would stop saying this

I'm not a super old-fag, but I've been following lolita fashion on /cgl/ and in Kera since 2011. The following has definitely changed. When I first discovered it, I wanted to revamp my life to be 100% kawaii, but I was teenager-poor and had to ask my dad to buy stuff for me online. There was like a lot of focus on everything being pink and sparkly and eating cute desserts and generall being the fabled lifestyle lolita.
Now, there's a lot of lolitas who are normalfag as fuck, and that's kind of sad. I feel like the worst of them are all trying to be efamous, they're obsessed with new releases, they go ott as all fuck to tea parties, then wear hollister on the weekends.
They're both kind of sad. I feel like all the girls who longed so hard to be "lifestyle lolitas" and acted like lolita fashion was a club were only looking for some sort of identity. And t was really fake and weeby. And now, a lot of people say "it's just clothes!" and they're totally right. But it does ruin some of the magic that the community once had.

The coord has the exact same blue in both the pattern on the JK, the handbag, and the hat I would like to incorporate into it. It does have a regal feel but also a fantasy and whimsy element to it also. The main colors on the JSK is ivory so I thought royal blue would give it a nice pop.

I think Soft Cream *is* Bodyline-specific. It came from that era when they had some artists working with them to make sweet prints (same era as the waffles and rose jewellery print). Although it is possible that the artist retained rights to the print and decided to sell it to Magic Tea Party?

I don't know whether to facepalm at someone copying Bodyline instead of brand, lol at someone replicating Bodyline, who themselves did replicas of IW, AP and other people's designs, or buy one because this looks heaps better than Bodyline's version.

I saw that Baby released the Miranda jsk (for the fifth time?) and I wonder if the quality have gotten better. I've heard some bad stories about them using cheap plastic boning.

Not the anon you were responding to, but that rip looks like the under arm seam? Keep in mind that body sweat can work to break down material over time, even if you are good about cleaning an item. That's probably what weakened the fabric there, and it can happen on any dress really. Not really surprising given the age of the garment.
Fortunately for you, any profession seamstress or alterations person should be able to mend that with little problem.

It's just because the online versus irl dynamics of a community are so different... the fashion its still pretty niche and so the communities end up being tight knit and word gets out if you're an antisocial bitch/sperg/have a vendetta against another girl. So everyone ends up playing nicey-nice with girls they don't like in order to maintain their rep and other relationships in the comm. They go online to vent - perhaps a little more viciously than they would if they were able to completely shun the person they disliked.
Its a cycle but what can you do. I'm friends with a lot of other lolitas on FB, and even if I dislike a few I'm willing to act friendly in order to stay good friends with everyone else.

Normal people don't whore themselves out for attention on the Internet, which is what you have to do to become a known vlogger.

It's possible to be outspoken and passionate about this fashion without giving the fashion a bad look. I think anyone that would be a vlogger or whatever is of course looking for attention (otherwise, why make it). But it doesn't have have to be such a fake fucking persona.

I would love to see videos about dresses people score, or the handmade stuff they make, their makeup, putting together coords, or just cool videos of meetups.

I don't want to see those fake-ass videos of "Oh I support #LACE!" "I am going to stand up to all these BULLIES!" like man, you're wearing some clothes and some people aren't going to like you and that's fine. But they use these things to leverage some more popularity and it's those videos that people see of lolitas.

I feel like maybe there's less handmade these days but with the rise of taobao, there have never been more small lolita-centric brands on the market.

I also feel like the "isn't Lolita just a flavor of the month print style" thing has been a complaint from girls since at least 2010 or so. It's just that those dresses (Toy Parade, Milky Planet etc) are less popular now, but they were huge fucking deals at the time.

[Anonymous No.8537569]

>>8537562
To make them look natural they's need to be special made wigs, like those for cancer patients. On pictures a good fashion wig might look natural, but in person the reflection isn't quite right, they tangle unnaturally and they don't 'flow' naturally when you move or when it's windy.

[Anonymous No.8537651]

So I've been admiring lolita fashion for many years now and I'm feeling more and more confident about diving in, but there's one problem.

I'm probably moving in about 6 months, though I have absolutely no idea where to. Given that there's a good chance I won't be in this area anymore past then, I'm not sure it's worth the effort and heartbreak of making all these new friends and then immediately having to move away. At the same time I've had some weird drama with a girl who I know is a part of the community, and while this animosity could probably be solved relatively easily (it boils down to a particularly venomous person in a semi-related community spreading rumors, and this girl was just kind of young and so reacted really childishly to it) again, I'm not really sure it's worth the drama getting into this community if I'm just going to move away.

Thoughts? I'm feeling really impatient to start on this hobby, but I can't justify spending the time or money without a community to get involved with.

Thinking about getting a binder because I'm tired of my cow tits being the only reason why I barely fit into my dream dresses.

I think a binder wouldn't help so much as an overbust corset would. It doesn't have to be tight or hugely restrictive, but it'd shape your bust to better fit some things.

I've thought about making a vlog for cooking and recipes and the like while wearing frills, since I wear them quite regularly when I go out. But I don't want to talk extensively about my clothes, if at all. I feel like a lot of people still treat lolita like it's a costume, wearing it to only cons or meetups and the like. I just want to present it as something that's normal, something that doesn't need to be talked about endlessly by everyone who wears it.
I don't know if anybody, lolita or not, would watch it, though. It'd probably end up being pretty weeby, and I'm super awkward so it might just be uncomfortable to watch.
