Review anon here. I apologize for my absence, I know I promised another review to be up ages ago but I got some pretty big news and was consumed by that for a while. I should have a review up in a few hours.

To the anon who asked me if I would mind moving to a more stable platform, I would certainly consider it! I don't know where would be the best place to do so though. I have a tumblr that is already focused partially on fashion and I could move my reviews there and tag them with "review" so people could find them easily. If you have any ideas on any other platform please let me know!

Review anon here! I'll be going ahead with my second review of Swankiss, this review features their Polka Dot Tulle Rose dress. As far as I am aware this dress is still up in some colorways on TOM even though it's a bit older. I'll try and pick pieces for you all that are still available and let you know where to find them if they are.

First thing to note is, I am a sucker for this type of cut and I am very biased and while I will try and be objective it's going to be a bit more difficult here. You're going to see a lot of peter pan collars in my reviews.

Swankiss strikes again with their terrible stock photos. If you ever see an item listed as white and the stock photo shows it being offwhite/ivory don't be fooled, it is stark white in person. This dress is no exception to that despite what my bedrooms vintage lamp lighting is showing you.

Their severe issues with accurately portraying colors is frustrating so maybe I will work on a guide to figuring out their wacky stock photos that people can reference so they don't have to dig through all of my reviews in the future.

The downside to this particular piece for people who have a longer torso or that are taller is it is quite short. I have other dresses in similar cuts that don't have this much of a length issue. (for reference I am just about but not quiet 5'6" with a shorter torso and I feel like anyone taller than me would have issues with the length of this particular dress.)

The roses on the front are secured fairly well I noticed. I have a bag from SK with similar roses decorating it and they weren't as well secured and after time loosened but I haven't seemed to come across any issue with these lifting. The shirring on top is pretty stretchy which seems as if it would be useful for accommodating a larger chest. I feel like this would be a lot more forgiving width-wise than a lot of swankiss pieces.

The bottom has several layers of tulle which gives a nice amount of volume and gives me mild ballerina vibes with the way it sits on my hips, and I absolutely adore it! It's a very nice touch that I didn't notice before ordering and was pleased as punch when I discovered it. The rest of the fabric is a suede-like fabric and very comfortable to wear, as well as there is no noticeable fraying or odd construction.

Over all if you aren't too tall or don't mind short skirts, this is a super cute piece and I feel TOM has it for a reasonable price right now(white is around $90 and black is only $63!)

New Look has a fantastic sale on at the moment full of larme appropriate stuff. Quality is on a par with cheap-middle range high street if not better at times. I find their value for money in terms of the quality you get to be generally excellent and often (but not always) better than places like H&M. They also deliver overseas.

The majority of the items in this collage are under 15 USD in the sale.

Apologies for horrible image quality, hopefully you can still get an idea for the styles they have on offer.

Tip for UK anons regarding new look, H&M and other good high street stores: It's well worth looking in the kids/teens section.

H&Ms size 14yrs+ is cut to fit people 5'6 tall, bust goes up to 35", new look is slightly better as they go up to 16yrs. Kids clothes are tax free, so cheaper, and they also have some pretty cute stuff in a lot of the time

They also randomly put certain shoes in the kids section even though they're in adult sizes. I got my favourite pair of flatforms from one ages ago.

The brands are not trying to be, but the magazine is obviously recommending brands for nymphet fashion/lolita the film

>> No.9563448

>>9563432
The Lolita theme only shows up in a couple of spreads out of many.

Again, I'm going to say that the editors are extremely tone deaf and simply see the outfits in Lolita as cute, whereas this whole nymphet fashion shit was build around the Tumblr community of dumb girls who actually wanted to fuck older men. There's also some missing culture context here, since it's more socially acceptable for girls and young women in Japan to look cute and feminine rather than overtly sexy.

As for this nymphet crap, lot of the girls on Tumblr who I used to see have grown out of it by now, even though they might still wear similar clothes (see how the popular tumblr nymphetfashion changed to coquettishfashion to try and distance themselves from the grosser aspects), while the girls who didn't grow out of it just fell deeper into ddlg bullshit. So seeing some girl who's so into nymphet fashion even now just makes me think she's behind the times and doesn't know what she's talking about.

>> No.9563459

This girl in particular just likes the fashion and is not interested in older men. She is talking about a page that specifically recommends brands for nymphet lolita fashion and she kind of disagrees with their choice of brands, that's all.

>> No.9563469

I'm sorry but your "friend" is at the very least uninformed. She's cherry picked a few spreads that are using the aesthetic from the Lolita book/movies and trying to apply them as rules for nymphet fashion. That was not the intent of those spreads and is not the intent of Larme magazine as a whole. She's trying to mash a bunch of spreads from different issues into some coherent "lolita fashion" rule book and it's not working.

Of course she's going to disagree with their choice of brands because those pages are not actually "recommending brands for nymphet lolita fashion," they're just a bunch of cute brands that they decided to pair with that particular spread.

And lol if she didn't want to fuck older men then why hasn't she blocked that one dude commenting on all her videos asking her to put on "wet look thigh highs." Major kek.

No it's not. It's recommending brands and clothes for mimicking that editorial specifically. The editorial has a theme and obvious source of inspiration but that doesn't mean it's an actual style or fashion itself. You may as well start making videos on how to be an "urban goth" because they had a couple of spreads titled with that.

I hate how much western J-fashion comms have to label everything into smaller and smaller substyles and categories. It's so autistic.

It's very extra/more dramatic and less put together than the stuff I see in these threads, but I can't help but see a few similarities (plus, she's reportedly inspired by riot grrrl and Courtney Love, which larme sort of dipped its toe into in the early days).

Many fashion designers, films, people etc are inspired by Lolita`s style featured in the film and imo often that is simply because they find the look cute and pretty. Not because there was some deeper meaning like being or pretending to be an underage girl who likes older men. Sometimes people overanalyse things related to Lolita theme and think it must has something sexual in. Often brands and magazines are simply inspired by the aesthetics of Lolita and ignore the problematic themes related to the book and the film.

As has been said before I think larme is best in the winter, so I'm looking forward to the later issues.
There are times where I honestly just think that they are reaching for content by coordinating band shirts and I'm sure they coordinated a plain grey hoody in a previous issue?

I think I just prefer the more formal/dressed-up larme looks, the kind that were popular from about Volume 14-23. It's taken on more current trends recently (or maybe vice versa) so in many ways it's become a lot more wearable and accessible, but I prefer the more unique combos and cuts.
Maybe I just gotta accept that I'll never be Gramrock...

I used to like Mai Shiraishi best, but I don't like her look recently now that she's grown out her bangs. It's too mature looking in a bad way, I think. I'm currently liking Nana Katou a lot, and although she focuses on designing over modeling now, I'm obsessed with Tsubasa Masuwaka's style and look.

>> No.9575409

My favourites are Maria and Maihee. Imo Mai Shiraishi is pretty but more traditionally beautiful than for example Risa so she is not as memorable although I like her style. Risa used to be my favourite but I liked her cute and girly look more. She likes more mature high fashion look now, I miss her old style but people change.

What it is is that Risa has quite wide sleek eyes already but she enhances them with lashes and underneath eyeliner plus the lenses. If you watch her in Midori the movie her eyes are bare and they look like normal asian eyes. The inbetween corners of her eyes towards her nose dive in more than usual and asians have that fold making them look oval/sleek anyway. Risa has her mother's eyes if any of you have ever seen her - she and her father are actors.

Maihee has average shaped eyes but again uses the same lashes, make up and angle to make them look bigger. All of them use angles to make their eyes look huge then blur and filter.

Plus their tiny frames just make their eyes and heads look bigger in general anyway.

I'm new to the fashion/new to Swankiss and didn't realize these existed.
Also some recent health and lifestyle issues have made me seek out open waisted dresses and wide legged pants in comfortable fabrics.

Sorry about your health and lifestyle issues but your best chance of getting fukubukuro items piecemeal esp for cheap is immediately after the release. Some people even sell same day. This is the case for pretty much every LP regardless of brand.
The items are worth what you are willing to pay but swankiss fukubukuro items are sometimes shit.

mon lily will be your friend, lots of loose tops & stretchy fits. It's run by the same people who do Dream V, so whilst the quality is average the range is good for getting basics together.
Head over to wear.jp and search some of the larme brands for some look ideas to help with your current condition issues.

I was mostly wondering because I have seen a few pieces, like the coat, ribbon sweater, and bag up for sale recently. I haven't followed the secondhand market for a lot of these brands for very long, though, so I'm not as familiar with them and figured I'd ask.

>>9619077
Thank you, anon! I actually already own a few tops and a pair of heels from MonLily.
I have a little wardrobe going made of mostly Katie, MILK, Onespo, HoneyCinnamon, and a few minor pieces by Ank Rouge and Fint. Mostly I need to change up my bottoms, improve my shoe game, and accessorize a bit more.

I'm really happy that looser styles are back in fashion.

>> No.9619351

I guess what I'm trying to say is that selling the contents of lucky packs isn't Larme or swankiss specific at all and common sense leads you to believe people who don't want the items, usually get rid of them prior to 9 months after receiving it. You can still find some but your chances are highest in January. I know that doesn't help now but since you seem to be a little clueless...

>>9623688
I don't know why we're so strict about the fashion, though. Plenty of different looks are posted in the magazine and by Japanese girls that might not be strictly "larme."
Fashion doesn't exist statically in a bubble, and I personally would prefer it to be dictated by its wearers, not just a magazine. I'm not saying that absolute trash, Walmart looks, as posted by some people on the fb group, should be considered larme or not critiqued. However, I do think that fashion that refuses to allow creativity or room for movement generally dies.
Also, I'd encourage people to post more images with their replies.

>> No.9623959

This is definitely larme. The hair and make are right, there are little details like the ruffles on the collar, there's not too much skin, and leather and leopard print are big larme trends.

If this is the example of "not strictly larme" then I definitely agree everyone needs to relax their definition and branch out.

I still love pink and black though.

>> No.9624683

Im wondering if Teddy coats and long over knee boots would ever work for Larme? Those are really popular in the UK at the moment. I think they could depending on their colours and how they are put together.

It doesnt seem the norm but hey look at Risa and her current style. It is not even that dolly anymore but still works for Larme. Plus her bon bon collection this season is different compared to last year... still works.

Ive been wondering this too... I mean yeah bloggers and models get gifted. But she just seems to advertise things she has been given and I think she has been travelling before going back to Japan for more model jobs/start Larme again. She was in London by herself I noticed.

Risa's style is weird at the moment its Larme but... too high fashion where it looks boring. Maihee basically took over the dark dolly image and she is rapidly growing. It won't be long before she is properly in the magazine, it wouldn't surprise me. She is catching up.

I think Risa got bored of people just latching on to her old style when it became popular. There are so many japanese girls who try her angles with the big buggy eyes showing off a lipgloss or lipstick with the whole blur going on ect. Sometimes I get mistaken if it even is Risa and realise it isn't.

Dunno - maybe she is just expanding to new things now I guess. Her Bon Bon range for A/W 17 is quite different and I like it. Some people haven't been too impressive about it though... probably because it isn't what it was when it first came out with the signature pieces.

This is the most recent data I could find from a ranking of women's magazines in Japan:

http://www.digital-dokusho.jp/magazine/womensfashion-copiesranking/

Looks like Larme sold 180,000 copies in 2016. Considering it's bimonthly when some of those other mags are monthly, I'd say that's pretty good. I mean we all know it's not Vogue.

Well... thats her call anon. We can only see I guess? I kind of prefer some mature pieces she wears compared to the ultra dolly things - I have purchased super dolly items myself and I put them on and walk out feeling like a twat or they're just not suitable for the everyday. But when you are Risa Nakamura and you barely have to worry about the normal everyday things, dressing cutesy is the norm in your own country and you're loaded... hardly a worry. But it's up to her I suppose. I still like her regardless anyway! She still has a dolly face and what not so I don't care aha

Does anyone else feel like larme isnt as larme as it was? Like the fetish style is dying out a little? All the models in the magazine seem to have shifted from it. I look at their instagrams and they all dress a bit differently now

I feel like that too. Like I mentioned in my post >>9633020 I think alot of the coords last few issues aren't distinctly larme and are similar to the coords in Vivi or Popteen (pic related is Vivi from May 2017). I wonder if Larme'll beable to compete with these other magazines if they keep becoming more generic. I know fashions change but Larme has changed to the point where it doesn't stand out as much.

What got me into Larme was Amo's style and Risa's old style. I really miss Amo's style because I like the pastel x pastel color palette

I feel like the whole fetish thing which was symbolic to Larme became overrun if I am honest and probably why Risa shifted from it. Now she just sells the style at Bon Bon to fund for her high fashion YSL bags, why not? Good idea I guess for the cash.

But yeah it is becoming less noticeable now, this current issue the style looks a lot more Western too like here in the UK atm it's all shearling jackets, boots and leather vinyl skirts. I noticed this issue had those elements too, I like the style but it wasn't as frilly and lacey as it has been before hand.

Definitely. Pheremone fetish is cute but became oversaturated. Personally, I liked her sweet girly looks more than the pheremone fetish ones. Maihee now fills the sweet girly look for me though

What disappoints me with Bon Bon is that they are so unactive at updating their twitter, blog and instagram nowadays compared to other brands. During their first Risa collection the hype they started online before the release was quite big but now it is so lazy. I think they even deleted their old instagram pictures? Anyway it is hard to be excited about their new stuff when it is so difficult to find any pictures of it and usually everything comes to online store really slowly. I am used to seeing other brands like Ank Rouge, Katie and Swankiss sharing pictures and shop staff coordinates so actively that it feels like Bon Bon is not even trying, lol...

I agree you barely see many updates from it, it's like they don't care and all the other brands have so many shoots! Bon Bon barely has any apart from Risa doing them and thats every so often. Their new stuff might be in the next Larme issue but thats about it. Melt the lady is a similar line by that Ayagram girl on Instagram - another Larme model and she's creepy looking in my opinion. The stuff is nice! But it looks too similar to everything else these days... I think thats why I lost a bit of interest in the fetish Larme style.

Putting together a collection of what larme #30 says the biggest trends are for autumn.

Shoes:
boots - ankle and otk's, in fluro pinks and glitters.
buckle details, usually paired with fur, lace, or flower details.

Autumn 'keywords'
Fur shoes, sets (i.e matching tops + bottoms), material mix ( i.e tulle and knit), ribbons ( esp. in accesories), leopard print, check, frills, caps, lace up boots, sporty items, velor, oversized belts, classic flower prints, 'classical' one piece, oriental, big accessories ( earings)

Whilst some aspects of this issue was questionable, I really loved risa's outfits. And I was happy to see akarin modelling in the makeup section as well.
I can scan any parts if anybody wishes for clarifications on what the 'trends' mean.
(Barely trends and more, what everyones been wearing anyway.)

What is the first thing someone should buy to get into Larme?
I’m a Sweet Lolita and I have some Jfashiony stuff (Axes Femme, Nile Perch, Swimmer) but I’m not sure how to incorporate this in Larme outfits.

So Axes Femme can work but the colors might be hard to work with. Initially I thought Nile Perch might be too fairy, but looking at their website now, some of their new stuff might work; maybe look to Honey Cinnamon for inspiration? Swimmer is definitely too fairy though.

I recommend you get:
-A nice reddish/berry blush like pic related. There are a lot of blush colors that can work in Larme, but this color really screams Larme to me, and I think it's easy for beginners.
-A pencil skirt or tight a-line skirt in a 'hard' material like denim or leather. This is good to make an outfit fore mature and also add texture.
-A tulle skirt, preferably a long one in a light color. This can make an outfit more feminine and dreamy, and again, texture.
-A fluffy pastel cardigan and/or loose sweater. Again more dreamy aesthetic, and more texture.
-Choker necklaces! They're easy to find now and they're good for balancing the colors towards the bottom of your outfit with the top.
-A simple-ish pair of low black heels that match everything
-Ribbons for cute hairstyles!
-A big practical bag that can carry all your stuff! I'm quite partial to the frilly pillow totes.
-I usually pad out my wardrobe with simple graphic tees and cutsews from Ank Rouge
-Also dresses are good, but all I can say is just look to the Larme brands for those?

Is interest for Larme already dying?

>> No.9649962

>>9649603
What do you mean already? Larme the magazine is five years old, it's not some new fashion that's just materialised and is now fading. You would get that impression if you only follow western people because there were a lot of people who jumped onto it when they found out about it, and left pretty quickly after realising it wasn't a quick meal ticket to e-fame. You could infer that means interest is dying, but imo people hopping in and out of a fashion doesn't give a net result so it's not worth looking at.

Is larme worth buying if you don't like Risa's style and prefer a more childish, less sexy look?
