much much better than I've seen her put together before. but why can't she ever do her hair or wear a wig? she looks like an unstylish nerd in a dress.

I mean if you have to have glorious burando but face it: Taobao really does make niche prints, and if you want to find something specific, you should just browse Taobao. Belle Langue is really good quality and they have a coding jsk. Big burando is probably gonna come out with more tacky Space Lollipop bullshit. They will not release niche prints unless it’s a collab. I think I can kind of see why newfags believe in brand elitists.

I mean if you’re buying from resellers maybe. Taobao is usually about two to three (depending on shop) steps below basic brand level. Which, for 60.00 with shipping, isn’t what I would consider wasting money unless you’re actually a total poorfag. No it’s not the same quality, but if you want unique prints and not the same boring pastel sweet vomit AP is churning out, then it’s a viable and decent option for cushioning your closet, especially as a daily wearer.

I own half brand and half taobao. As someone who wears Lolita daily I like to wear cheaper taobao dresses on the regular and brand for nicer outings. It's analogous to wearing casual wear like jeans and then dressing up a bit nicer. I don't need to be in a $300 dress daily.

I wear lolita daily. I buy the vast majority of my daily brand from Y!A, Fril and Mercari for very cheap, I genuinely don't spend over £40 on anything that's not a main piece unless it's a dream item. I have over 75 mains at the moment, and only three are from Taobao. If you're only buying lolita new, then no wonder you're struggling to have a closet full of brand for dailywear.

I find that baby skimps a little bit on quality there as well. Mismatching laces, thin fabric that doesn't fall well, and blurry prints. Not saying that taobao will compare with top tier brand, but I'd say top taobao is on par with baby because baby is sort of shit.

Baby does have mismatching lace, but I think that's more of a stylistic choice but you're free to disagree. Their prints aren't blurry and their fabric falls fine though.

[Anonymous No.9861623]

>>9861613

I guess it's more AATP but Ragnarok comes to mind for me. I had the skirt though, but eh, it had all those issues so I sold it after I wore it once. The other one that comes to mind for me was a flocked Baby JSK I can't recall the name of, but the fabric was really flimsy and sort of shapeless. I sold that one though because it was too large on me.

I've just been really disappointed in Baby/AATP I haven't even had the heart to buy their nonprint items, which I've heard were better.

[Anonymous No.9861635]

>>9861623
Really? I buy a lot more Aatp but I've always been blown away by the quality when it arrives. Especially because the stock photos don't do a lot of them justice. At least I personally haven't had anything bad from AATP.

[Anonymous No.9861637]

My only real gripe with Baby is that they don't line their dresses and I still don't understand why. I used to own AAtP's Maleficent JSK and the quality was terrible. It wasn't lined, the print was blurry and rubbing off on the armpits, and the lace was weirdly uneven. Sold it immediately.

Meanwhile on AP's side my Aquarium Carnival OP had a really wonkily sewn on bow. Same with my Whip Collection OP, though that one was a sample item so I figured it was only wonky because of that.

I don't buy a lot of taobao, but I only ever buy from the really little shops, not stuff like Diamond Honey. They always need a good iron and sometimes the prints aren't as vivid, but I've been fortunate enough to not have weird quality problems.

Classic isn't really my thing so I've never owned any VM or MM, but Meta is top tier quality.

>people assume I'm replying regardless of if I am or not

Honestly I've been thinking about that a lot lately, when I lost track of how many people I've been accused of being while disagreeing with someone on cgl. In the last like 3-4 months I noticed that, whenever I challenged someone's opinion, I was accused of selfposting 100% of the time.
I think the reason this happens so often is that the dumber gulls realized that it's a failproof way to devaluate an opponent's argument. Because a selfposting accusation challenges you instead of the point you're making, it shifts the emphasis of the argument and drives it into a dead end because there's absolutely nothing you can do to prove you're not a selfposter. I know, I've tried once I got really fed up after being told I'm a selfposter for the Nth time. Some people just don't want to use their brain and refuse to accept that sometimes people won't agree with them, and those people are not always the ones that got posted.
I wish I could say to just ignore them and laugh it off, but honestly I'm having a hard time with that myself, these idiots are just so damn aggravating.

I'm not even a taobao stan, but this is inaccurate. One of my favourite print skirts is from taobao, and the pattern is actually woven into the fabric, with the images lining up at the seams (something even brand seems to have trouble with). It's honestly on the same level as my solid Moitié pieces, in terms of fabric weight, attention to detail, and construction. I definitely do consider it an outlier, though, and for every one high quality taobao piece, there are a hundred shitty pieces.
