>Moot changed the rules, it was a topic of debate... Resulted in janitors quick to delete if they thought it wasn't j-fashion enough. Now the focus has to be j-fashion or lolita, and not enough posters wear it daily/have thick enough skin to post, so threads made nowadays die quickly.
this sounds like a historical war report. /cgl/ has a dark, dark history.

that's pretty regrettable though, what's even the point in a clothing board if you can't post yr clothing in it

who wears chocolate prints and tries to be demure with it

surely if you're going as far as chocolate prints you might as well just go all out

>I've always found pastels to be trickier
w-why? Surely one of the easiest colour palettes, especially in summer. /fa/ even coined a super innovative trend called 'palewave', which is literally just wearing pastels (they look like dweebs and just post the same ~10 pics in their threads every day, and say things like "w2c light jeans" and "cop or not Stan Smiths")

>>11390692
>Yeah you do stack up petticoats- I've stacked three at most, some other lolitas I've known do four. This isn't just for day to day unless you want ultimate poof 24/7.
do all the petticoats poof in different places then? That'd make sense. The only reason I'm having trouble getting this is because of my poor understanding of how they even work, your sticky is useless if you have my lolita ignorance lvls

What would happen if you used 5? Or 6? Do you just get puffier or would that not work for any reason? Also how do you not knock things over all the time when puff'd?'

Anyone from San Diego here? There is a "Harajuku/Japanese Fashion Walk" even going on today and was thinking of going. The Facebook page makes it seem like it will mostly be girls dressed in lolita, but it might be fun to attend.

I'd be elated if I saw someone dressed in Yohji or CDG, but I don't know if anyone else in SD is into Japanese designer fashion.

Speaking of work wear, how does /fa/ deal with balancing work and fashion? I mean, what if there is a uniform involved?

>>11390796
>It quickly became a not-so-cute pastry
RIP cute pastry

>who wears chocolate prints and tries to be demure with it
Maybe demure is the wrong word? Brown is not a very loud colour. It is possible to wear a sweet print without being OTT

> w-why? Surely one of the easiest colour palettes
I know I'm picking on Angelic Pretty, but they're the easiest example- their shades of lavender can vary in every fucking release. It must be quite annoying. Online, it is difficult to discern various shades of pastel, so it is more of a gamble.

>mfw when my blacks don't match, why live

palewave looks pretty cute though!!

>>11390801
>do all the petticoats poof in different places then?
yes- A-line pettis flare out at the bottom, bell-shaped pettis have a rounder shape. I'm sorry if I'm crap at describing, but lolita-tips' FAQ on tumblr gives a very good rundown for beginners.

>what're you asking/trying to learn in particular?
I'm just trying to get to know the board- always found it interesting how people break down fashion and why they wear particular styles. I'm picking up things (terminology, trends, styles) along the way

>>11391362
Well, you wear it, if it's a nice uniform and it's an interesting job or something that you're passionate about. Will look natural on u. For example, military ppl usually look great in military uniforms. If it's a shitty retail job or something else with a shitty uniform, then it's pretty difficult to look good in for sure, but I mean >working a shit job with mandatory shit uniform

>RIP cute pastry
Just want to forget. Heart burning with guilt. Mate asked me while I was looking down in the dumps, nearly snapped at him even though its not his fault ffs.

>Brown is not loud. Its possible to wear a sweet print without being OTT
got u. That Costanza dress is pretty much a chocolate print

>shades of lavender can vary
googled 'angelic pretty lavender' and see what you mean

There are probably some examples for this in our clothes too, cant think of any right now though. Quite a few brands have really inconsistent/irregular sizing, is this a problem for gulls? Since you all buy stuff mostly online and cant try on to see how things fit

>palewave looks pretty cute
yeah it does, especially in summer. Still pretty derivative, and there's pretty little you can do with it (imo)

It probably arose as a reaction to the super basic all-black fits that were super saturated a year or two ago. 90s revival and w/e is definitely not bad as far as mainstream trends go, we've had much worse

this tumblr faq is dece, thanks

lots of people experiment and change their look v often because riding trends etc is fun. Only a minority have a real 'aesthetic' that they stick with for a long time, and it often resonates with their lifestyle/personality if that's the case

>Just want to forget

>see what you mean
more annoying when taobao brands advertise something to be black, only to be a really dark grey/green

>Quite a few brands have really inconsistent/irregular sizing, is this a problem for gulls?
Yeah it seems to be a problem for a lot of people- I mean, when release previews come out and you want to make a reservation with your SS, it is pretty much a gamble as to whether it is going to fit or not. There is no standard. Even with shirred items, some lolitas still find it not consistent. Brands have made it more accessible though, with busts that go up to 100cm- although that's still not enough for some. Only one size available too.

I don't usually look at measurements- I'm a UK 4 so no issues.

>Still pretty derivative, and there's pretty little you can do with it (imo)
>arose as a reaction to the super basic all-black fits
Is it limited because it is derivative from the all-black over saturation, or is it the way it's supposed to be? Completely the opposite in lolita.

>this is like a parallel universe
haha that's true- it's just that it's a bit risky for newbies to know what is good and what isn't- but once experience sets in, it definitely becomes better. Especially for oldschool lolita.

>Only a minority have a real 'aesthetic' that they stick with for a long time, and it often resonates with their lifestyle/personality if that's the case
I guess we have a fair amount of fame whores in the community, who try and ride the wave of whatever is popular.
There are some lifestyle lolitas, although they are a bit rarer. As for me, my lifestyle doesn't fit into the lolita aesthetic, but looking at my wardrobe, there is a definite trend I stick to, colour-wise.

>>11386003
Gull here, I'm in in the exact inverse situation. I have a male friend/former coworker who would likely would fit right in /fa/, and I have suggested it to him as a resource, but because it's 4chan he wants to stay far away. I feel it's a bit of a shame, as his job is well-paid and he thus can afford buying (and does buy) from a lot of the brands that /fa/ discusses. His build, hair, and haggard face with high cheekbones makes him look exactly like /fa/-kun, too. But his job already comes with seeing lots of online vitrol about the company, so it'll probably be better for his mental health to not venture into 4chan at all.

When we were still coworkers, we gossiped with each other when a coworker appeared in a public youtube video with both buttons on his jacket fastened, and again when the company announced collab clothing items which were downright fugly. We continue sharing our hauls after online releases, or whenever we nabbed a dream piece after months/years of searching secondhand sites. When he told me one of his socks with a small red logo bled into his favorite white shirt, I threw every piece of advice I knew about laundering white fabric exposed to red dye, since I had already gone through the same hellish experiences with a few of my burgundy lolita dresses.

>>11391362
Obviously not speaking for /fa/ here, but from my observations of my male friend, on casual Fridays he'd try to integrate one statement piece in with the rest of his work outfit. For example, a Supreme tee with a black blazer and black skinny jeans.

Off-topic, but maybe not given the tone of these threads: this male friend is a bachelor in his 30s, so I would love to try hooking him up with one of my lolita friends in the same age range as him. But there's just not that many single, monogamous, straight/bi lolitas in their 30s in the local lolita comm to begin with.

Questions for /fa/:

If you are familiar with lolita substyles, which substyle(s) do you like best, and why? I imagine military lolita and gothic lolita would be most popular, as they seem "closest" to modern fashion, but please correct me if I'm wrong.

>>11392625
What makes you think that he would like a lolita gf? Is it something he said himself (if so, what?), or have you figured it out yourself?

>>11393573
>military lolita

that's the first time ive ever heard that... i enjoy sweet lolita a lot, it's really cute and all but classic and gothic (arguably) are the easiest to wear in public, and are the most 'functional' if you understand what i mean.

i also feel like gothic lolita fits /fa/'s general style too, with all the edgy black stuff. probably would look good with yohji fits and whatnot.

it's honestly hard for me to say which one i like best, since they all have their own unique style to them... if a gun were pointed to my head and i were forced to choose which one is my favorite i'd probably pick classic.

Daily remainder that this is considered 10/10 in UK

>>11394138
It's not as widespread, very much like sailor lolita and pirate lolita.

Metamorphose (japanese brand) once released a very controversial series which was very reminiscent of nazi german uniforms. It was called 'dark secret' I think. Another hard to find dress.

>>11394170
If that pic that I replied to is military lolita then I like it a lot. And it's not surprising that Japan would make a Nazi inspired dress, because Japan was allies with Nazi Germany in ww2 in the first place, and they don't really mind swastikas much there either.

Pirate lolita just sounds bad. Sailor sounds cute.

I wish there were a space lolita. That sounds hilarious t b h

>Is it limited because it is derivative from the all-black over saturation, or is it the way it's supposed to be?
I meant as in most 'palewave' looks the same. i.e people copying Theo le good photography man.

It's basically just a comfy summery colour palette with natural fiber fabrics, it's pretty much meant to be unassuming and simple. Just a meme word to describe chilled out fits really

What I meant of it in relation to black fits is that lots of trends are usually based around black. Most of these looks aren't even similar due to different silhouettes/textures/general vibes. My theory is that 90s revival is so huge right now because past trends (especially black ones) have looked so srs, so ppl wanted to be ironic and fun instead.

Of course the problem with such anti-fashion fashion trends is it means you have now have huge amounts of Instragramfriends trying hard to not look like tryhards, which is cringy in itself (hope this lil ramble makes sense)

>Completely the opposite in lolita
how so?

>ride the wave of whatever is popular.
is there any underlying theme in what's popular right now, aside from specific brands like Angelic Pretty?

5'10 classic lolita here. lol yes. It's very hard to find dresses that fit. Luckily a lot of classic styles come in two different lengths, the long version of dresses is usually the tea length version.
Sometimes I luck out, as long as the dress is around 100cm in length it should fit.

>>11393573

How can you tell when they wear burkhas all the time?

>>11394299
>do nippons say "ita" when they get hurt?
I've no idea, it is probably colloquial speech anyway. In the western comms that is used as a noun (ita-chan) and as an adjective (ita)

>that's mostly for reps and fakes on /fa/, didn't know it is used commonly for actual coords (unless ur big on reps)
not fond of print replicas, but taobao brands have really flourished in these past few years, even if they did start as replica outlets. Some of their releases have become super popular, although it is arguable to say that they can compare to brand. My favourite taobao brand is Krad Lanrete, and it is a good example of great quality goods and incredibly bad costumer service (they tried to set up a UK office, only to offer the same goods at inflated prices and virtually no costumer service). I've had my order being delayed by 5 months. Shoes are also pretty good, as brand shoes tend to look good but not worth the price.

>this sounds horrid unless it's easy to resell
It's what a lot of girls do! shirring doesn't always stretch as the measurements state.

>Do lanky lolitas have a bad time?
As other anon said, tea length dresses are a life saver. Alternatively, underskirts are pretty good. They are worn over petticoats, but under the dress.

> unassuming and simple
you see, pastels are so much more in lolita- they can make or break a coord. you can mix and match them in different ways, and it is all about balance. I colour coordination has greater importance in lolita?

>have huge amounts of Instragramfriends trying hard to not look like tryhards
I guess it works with lolita as well, to an extent. There's only so much you can do before people call you a try hard ita.

> is there any underlying theme in what's popular right now
for those who really want to stand out; OTT classic is probably one of the big ones. Some don't like it because it blurs the line between lolita being a fashion and a costume

The Japanese verb is いたい(itai).
>http://jisho.org/search/%E3%81%84%E3%81%9F%E3%81%84
Used to say something hurts, like 頭が痛い([atama ga itai] my head hurts).

Japanese lolita's came up with the term from the word lolita ([ロリータ] roriita) and itai (いたい).
Ita (emphasis is on -ta) can be used by average Japanese people in the same type of circumstances you'd use it if for instance you stubbed your toe (it's a shortened version of itai).

>>11395502
Lolita is the diminutive for Lola which is colloquial way to call someone named Dolores (like the girl in the famous novel). in Spanish adding -ita after a female noun makes it a diminutive.

I think /cgl/ just found itself at the end of a funny coincidence.

>>11395541
didn't know about the name origin, nice.
the fashion and the novel share names. hardly anything new, and i mostly avoid using 'lolita' to people outside the fashion because of it.
it's more annoying than funny because it attracts all sorts of creeps to wear the fashion, and is also why we can be seen as reclusive.

>>11391781
cavers absolutely mental

>>11394132
Because he bitches to me about how forever alone he is. He likes looking at gothic pieces from MMM, Atelier Boz, and Putamoyo. He is also a light closet weeb, which a lot of lolitas are (usually such interests are under wraps at lolita comm meetups, and for good reason; it's a fashion meetup and not an anime/manga meetup). If he continues to refuse event invitations through this summer, I'll stop inviting him altogether.

>>11394189
There are tons of bad pirate lolita attempts. A few good ones exist. Newbies are attracted to it but think that adding a tricorn hat to any coord will suffice.

Sailor lolita takes design inspiration from Japanese school uniforms, so you are right that it is cute. Here's an example from Innocent World. It's not the same as nanchatte, as the petticoat-powered silhouette and skirt length still make it lolita.

There isn't space lolita, though the closest lolita substyle could be cyber lolita, which is terrible. It's one of those experimental substyles that looks "meh" on paper, and emulating it in real life makes an outfit that should be burned in a fire.

Uchuu-kei is a branch-off of fairy-kei with a space theme, you might like that.

>>11394976
>>11395351
>Tea length dresses are a life saver
are they actually cut for taller people, or are they just meant to be longer skirts but still for femlets? Because that's a problem sometimes with abnormal-height people on here, especially for shirts/suiting. Just looks off in a hard to explain way

>underskirts are pretty good
How do they help? Are they meant to be visible?

>colour coordination has greater importance in lolita
This might be the case in that I'd think it would be harder work loud colours/intentionally jarring colour combinations in lolita. Perhaps since they're usually more pattern based than what /fa/ usually wears?

Soooo how many lolitas are into bdsm

>>11393573
I agree those are the most mainstream looking, but they also appeal to my personal aesthetic the most out of all the Lolita styles. I just don't find people dressed like brightly colored babies attractive, where as these styles can look more mature.

The really early style was also charming, when the dresses were very simple and minimal. I'm having trouble finding pictures of what I'm referring to, unfortunately.

>>11399522
im not a gull m8. Probably most if not all tho

>>11399522
Hard to say on the whole, we keep the fashion and whatever we get up to in private very separate. Any lolita who publicly does so in their comms are shamed and made fun of on various sites (especially when minors are present).

People are into a fashion which promotes modesty and innocence, so these things don't fit into that. It's fine to have kinks, but no one needs to know.

Dresses are expensive, I wouldn't like to ruin them.

Here's some street snaps using kimonos.

I feel like they've been very popular in the west as well, so I'm surprised it's not more of a thing on /fa/? They're great for that drapey look you guys like.

>>11399153
>I actually don't mind long shipping times
shipping times are usually fine- EMS and Airmail are decent from Japan, China and Korea in my experience. My delay was due to the production process, which I can understand to an extent, the dress had several types of lace, trimming, charms/buttons and fabric material.

>are they actually cut for taller people
not particularly, most tea length dresses have the same bodice measurements- the skirts are longer

>How do they help? Are they meant to be visible?
in lolita, dresses should preferably be at approx knee length- if a dress is too short, underskirts are basically longer skirts that go under the dress, giving the illusion that the dress is longer. The more they mesh into the dress the better. Yes, they are visible.

>it would be harder work loud colours/intentionally jarring colour combinations in lolita
Yeah I mean, it is usually colours which compliment each other- brands like Meta will break the rule from time to time.

>Perhaps since they're usually more pattern based than what /fa/ usually wears?
Prints are huge in lolita. Could mean the difference between a dress being valued at £100 or £1000 on the second hand market.

>'fuccgirl' in seagull speak
sometimes fame whore. Aren't we a bunch of lovelies?

>see I usually find most lolita quite costume-y.
costumes are worn to re-enact another individual. It stops being a costume when you wear it because it suits you.

>inb4 'does that mean I can wear a fancy dress costume and still say that is me???'
sure, you do you, it just means you have a debatable sense of fashion

Tucking the kimono in definitely looks better, but what about just wearing it loose?

I don't know how much sewing experience you have, but you could modify the sleeves and the length to suit you.

Agreeing with what other anons said, some layering would definitely give it a more modern feel. If anything you want to avoid looking like a weeb.

I have no sewing experience so I'd have to get someone to do it. Would I have to go to a Japanese tailor or something to get it done? I would assume so.

What do you think /cgl/ is for? :^) There are sometimes kimono threads that you can browse through, none right now, but you can always look into the archives. TokyoFashion is also good if you want to see street snaps, and there are plenty of tumblr blogs dedicated to the aesthetic.

Lolita looks so dumb and I hate the fake dainty personalities that come with it. I've witnessed two public lolita gatherings and both were just disgusting.

>Agree with the other anon, try wearing it loose for some extra dimension

Loose as like a coat, or loose as in loosen it up from tucking it in?

I feel like /cgl/ is catered more to Lolita and cosplay rather than actual J-fashion, not that Lolita isn't but yeah.

I'll look into the archives and others you listed.

>>11404264
Are you okay?

>>11403361
If you can find a Japanese tailor, that would be pretty good, but anyone who knows what they're doing is good enough. You're going to wear this in an unconventional way, so why be conventional about the cut? :^)

Wear it out, and loose. It looks pretty long, I think if it were a bit shorter, it could frame your outfit (fit? Coord? Who knows) much better. From what I've seen from other modern kimonos, there are usually slits across the side of the garment, to allow the wearer more movement and to make it more casual. Some things to think about!

/cgl/ is female dominated in terms of jfashion. Some places to check out:
Tokyosnaps
Style-arena (you can look up snaps based on gender, season, keyword)
Tokyofaces
Japanesestreets
Froitas (tumblr)
Fuckyeahdroptokyo (tumblr)
Tokyofashion (tumblr)
...enjoy!!

A lot of these are street fashion, as it is very prominent in Japan. Look for the men's tag to see male fashion.

>I'm surprised it's not more of a thing on /fa/?
we have the occasional thread. People in them usually look bad, prolly because kimonos have such a stigma of nippon-ness that it makes it difficult for whitey to pull off. You usually just look like you're paying a visit to ur Japanese relatives. Not saying it cant b cool

wouldn't this look weird if it was anything but the exact same shade of the skirt? Something similar-but-not-quite-the-same poking out the bottom of a dress sounds pretty /ita/

>costumes are worn to re-enact another individual. It stops being a costume when you wear it because it suits you.
of course, we had a similar discussion briefly a couple days ago. I just feel like it's pretty difficult to not look costume-y. Like how it's so difficult to wear full Takashi Miyashita The Soloist without looking like you're wearing a Pirates of the Caribbean costume. I probs just haven't seen enough good coords from the Closet of Frills thingy and such

wear what you want because you want it, pls. I hope kimono-anon does so. Anyway, kimonos have been present in women's fashion, so why not men? It would look super qt, let's be weebs together ok!

>Something similar-but-not-quite-the-same poking out the bottom of a dress sounds pretty /ita/
we allow no mistakes. Seriously, as long as the shade fits the colours present in the coord (or the dress, or the lace trim), then it is mostly fine. Sometimes dresses come with a built-in petticoat, and stops the underskirt from flowing naturally from the edge of the skirt. That is to be avoided.

>Closet of Frills thingy and such
n-not surprised. 80% of the coords posted are specifically there to be picked apart. There's some cute coords though.

>unconvinced :^)
just…just don't tell /cgl/ that

>might cop some massive £10 vintage kimono from ebay
not going to be top quality, but if you want to experiment with wearing a kimono, it's a good start. I love picking apart and modifying clothing

>>11405405

I wish this to be my aesthetic. I thought it was pretty nice balance.

Seeing as you guys love /fit/, I thought you would like to know that they posted 2-3 threads over at /cgl/ in the past three days or so. Two of which weren't on topic. So…yeah...

>>11406112
>there there, have a cute pastry
y-you too!!!!

>wear what you want because you want it, pls
of course anon Im not trying to say otherwise, all for experimentation and dressing for urself. I was just trying to give my explanation for why they're not worn as often as other things on here which are easier to wear, which is what anon was asking. I've seen kimonos pulled off by white dudes before, usually in Americana type styles (the Visvim kimonos are great) and I'd like to see more. Being in touch with yr weeb side is very /fa/

>80% of the coords posted are specifically there to be picked apart
as in constructive critique or just being mean? The impression Im getting from your descriptions of /cgl/ behavior are making me suppose the latter :(

>as long as the shade fits the colours present in the coord (or the dress, or the lace trim), then it is mostly fine.
isnt it pretty hard to find something that matches the shade exactly if it doesn't come with the dress, though? In the same way that trying to make a suit with jacket/trousers of slightly different shades always looks really awkward

>I love picking apart and modifying clothing
that's what I meant by messing around with it, been a while since I D.I.Y'd anything mostly because Im fucking horrible at it and always injure myself with needles and sharp stuff

>I wish this to be my aesthetic
PLEASE stomp on me while simultaneously eating sushis

>Seeing as you guys love /fit/
it's weird how many worlds apart we are from each other 'culturally'. Both of our boards are self-obsessed but they think we look autistic and we think that they look boring, its a good relationship

I felt like the cardigan was a little too much so I took it off.

>>11406480
I'm >>11405312. This actually works nicely, good work anon.

as some constructive criticism, I *might* like it a little bit more if the jeans/shoes did not have so much distressing, or the top half of the fit seemed in less pristine condition to make it all look a lil more cohesive. I don't think the jeans offset the cleaner look you have on top in a way that looks natural, especially with the cardigan. It looks like you're going for something distressed and grungy, for which I'd personally drop the cardigan and maybe the turtleneck. Just personally not huge on the combination of distressing and pristine-ness here, don't think most people would care though, just a slightly autistic nitpick

I do like what you did here. Would also work rly well with a lolita gf desu, think would compliment /cgl/ coords well (idk if that's a good thing to you or not)

>of course anon Im not trying to say otherwise, all for experimentation and dressing for urself.
Ah sorry, I meant you (plural) in a general sense, rather than singling you out.

>as in constructive critique or just being mean? The impression Im getting from your descriptions of /cgl/ behavior are making me suppose the latter :(
It all depends how thick your skin is. I personally thing that /cgl/ isn't overly harsh about jfashion, but when something needs to be said, there is no holding back, and I find that refreshing; the board is not a hugbox or a safe space, and sometimes it is understanding (eg, when the person is quite young) but credit is justly given where it is needed. I learned to be harshly critical about my coords.

>isnt it pretty hard to find something that matches the shade exactly if it doesn't come with the dress, though?
A lot of Lolita companies and brands really focus on a specific colour palette; there is only so much that can go wrong with colour matching. Even with AP's fifty shades of lavender, here is not much straying. By sticking to this palette, brands realise that Lolitas will most likely buy this, as it will fit into their wardrobe seamlessly. No jarring colours, as you said.

>always injure myself with needles and sharp stuff
Same, but it is a small sacrifice to the kawaii gods.

>PLEASE stomp on me while simultaneously eating sushis
O-ok I'll use my RHS, it probably would hurt less

The first to /fit/ threads were an attempt to gather attention, the third was about what cosplay would be fitting for someone w mad gainz. All three had shirtless selfies I think? Not sure.

>>11406480
Glad to be of help. I think it's alright, it looks very natural and spontaneous, which is very much in the spirit of Japanese street fashion.
I partly agree with other anon; the kimono is a very formal and dainty garment, and maybe the rugged jeans and combat boots don't look cohesive. Try and pick out fitted items, for more sophistication.

>>11406968
>It all depends how thick your skin is
I get that, but big difference between constructive criticism and just being a useless asshole for the sake of it (unless they deserve it). Infinitely better than a hugbox though, which is why a place like mfa makes me feel so nauseous. It's my understanding that over there you just get downboated into oblivion if you critique a fit harshly without using smiley faces or an optimistic tone. That's why most people over there dont improve much.

I do think that posting things in an anonymous forum is the best way to get a sample impression of what people irl are honestly thinking, though.

>A lot of Lolita companies and brands really focus on a specific colour palette; there is only so much that can go wrong with colour matching.
ahh, good point. Using suits as a point of comparison doesn't really work, since suits are usually one colour, while dresses are usually a palette.

>it is a small sacrifice to the kawaii gods.
Ive never successfully made anything kawaii in my life, should I give myself some more needle stab wounds?

>O-ok I'll use my RHS, it probably would hurt less

>kimono is a very formal and dainty garment
I don't feel like this is always the case, although it might be in this one. Something like pic related could easily be worn if ur going grungeweeb tho.

Basic slim jeans/wool trousers with derbies would be the easiest way to go for sure. I'd like to see it work with wide trousers but think it'd be a bit much

>big difference between constructive criticism and just being a useless asshole for the sake of it
I wasn't debating that! I just meant that people are much more upfront about their critique anonymously. I mean, at the end of the day it is up to you if you want to be butthurt or just get over what some random anon said, and learn something from it. mfa sounds a lot like Closet of Frills in fb and tumblr- something will not quite look right, but people will still give asspats.

>dresses are usually a palette
It is changing now, some chinese and japanese brands have gotten a bit more adventurous, while some have stuck to the endless cycle of muted pastels. Green has been a bit rare in lolita, but I've seen more pieces coming out in dark and lime green.

>Ive never successfully made anything kawaii in my life
time to change that.

>should I give myself some more needle stab wounds?
Start by wearing cat ears, integrate the word 'nyaa~' in your everyday speech, little things

>what does RHS stand for and how does it help with stepping on people
Rocking Horse Shoes, as in the ones VW did? Was popular in lolita, still used.
Uh, I thought a flat platform would hurt less than pointy heels? The sole is made of wood/foam? IDK

>I don't feel like this is always the case, although it might be in this one
yeah that's what I meant- it's not exactly combat gear. although I can't really tell with the lighting.

>>11407765
looking back at the other photos you took, there were two white patches(?) at either side of the kimono, which I can't see in the last picture you sent. Did you take them off?

>W2C Lolita gf?
Tricky, as you might be seen as a creep if you randomly joined a comm. Although I'm sure we're always on the lookout for an aristo/ouji/kodona accessory, so there's some hope in that.

I didn't take 'em off, they were imprinted on the kimono it's just that I had the kimono lose so it kinda covered them. There's another on my back too, oh and two more behind the ones at the side.

The closest thing to a comm was the Harajuku Fashion Event and I wanted to wear my kimono but didn't know how so I just went in some /fa/ clothes and just took some shots. Not the best pictures, but I'm getting better.

many lolitas are talentless nerds (hey I didn't exactly go to art school myself), just, buy full sets. Buy all of them. If a dress comes with tights, head bow, wrist cuffs, just get them all. You'll get hundreds of likes. No imagination needed. A+

>doesn't feel natural nor does it compliment my aesthetic well :(
MAKE it feel natural. Embrace the kawaii. Have you looked at the street snaps? I feel like some of the men's styles would be appropriate to your tastes.

>ahh, so they're like creepers!
K-kind of? Think of it like, ballerina shoes on a big wooden sole.
There used to be a rule in lolita that shoes weren't allowed to have too much of a heel (can't remember the limit) but with the comeback of platform heels, that has gone. I'm already a bit too tall for lolita, and pretty clumsy in my 2-inch heels already so they're not for me.

>i-is this really a problem? are gulls not welcoming of new members of their sekrit club?
yeah, especially for guys who don't seem to be into the fashion or mere 'admirers' of lolita. A lot of comms have had a bad history of creepers (older men mostly) wanting to take advantage of the members. Brolitas are accepted, as they are into the fashion, but fetishists are ostracised if the fashion has anything to do with their kink. It's all about the safety of the members.
Also, ouji; some will make their SO match with them in ouji (or aristo and kodona).
In other terms, be frilly of gtfo :^)

>>11410746
Ah I see, I like smaller details better- maybe you can integrate white in another part of your outfit!

Yeah, apart from lolita, it's hard to say whether there is a hash comm in SD. And I think it was a good decision to not wear the kimono without a proper idea of how to wear it. You might have been mistaken for a creepy weeb. Might want to check fb for more info.

>>11413062
I'll see what I can do with white being thrown into the mix, Thanks for the advice. I'll probably post another fit later today, for more advice.

I decided to follow the page of the event host and see what's good, but from what I saw, most people at the event were from LA so Idunno how big the comm is in SD, and I can't really find any other pages. It's like they're all hidden and a sekrit club.

>>11413074
>It's like they're all hidden and a sekrit club.
meets aren't usually advertised as public events, unless they are big annual ones or sponsored tea parties. You might be half right there. Every comm has different regs for various reasons.

>I'll probably post another fit later today, for more advice
Let us know!!

>>11413102
That's true, well hopefully I get to see more and more events later down the road and try to become part of the comm once I get into it more. Sadly the only piece I own is the kimono.

I would definitely recommend some contouring, it makes a big difference if used right.
I'm surprised contouring is not more popular on this board, considering how hollow and thin they can make you look (at least on the face).

Looking for some advice/inspo from both boards.

I browse /cgl/ regularly and as such my wardrobe is full of cutesy cuts and fun patterns. I'm starting pharmacy school this fall and need to make my wardrobe somewhat more professional. I don't need to wear pant suits every day but I'm looking for more appropriate cuts with a hint of cuteness in them. Is there a certain style or some stores I should look in to to get started?

Pic related is a dress of mine that I think would be appropriate for school but maybe not.

>>11414293
VINTAGE MOSCHINO

>>11414365
Gah! That's so cute! A bit out of my price range for now though. Once I graduate and get a job I can fill my closet with all that cuteness.

>>11414293
>I'm starting pharmacy school this fall

I went to a more academic graduate program but honestly if you look even remotely professional, it's fine. A dress like that would be totally fine not in winter. I wouldn't wear a full /cgl/ outfit but most prints should be fine if you drop the accessories and makeup.

All the women in my program (mathematics, lol) wore jeans and t-shirts. If someone wore a button down and chinos or a dress it was like, respect.

>>11414409
Vintage Moschino isn't too to expensive if you get it at the right time, you can even get last years for 60% off which is like $700 for like $300 (which I get is still pricey.) IDK I love Moschino and all of there pieces are like little art and museum pieces.

But I prefer Jeremy era.

idk what a creeper is if not just a shoe with a massive sole shoved on. Creepers usually have crepe soles though instead of wooden ones, or at least partially crepe because a full crepe creeper sole would be like wearing bricks on ur feet

I don't think so, not particularly. However it is not exactly something to be lauded about- you literally bought matching stuff. Maybe when a specific coord is rare/expensive, then it might be cool.

> idk what a creeper is if not just a shoe with a massive sole shoved on.
well, RHS are more elegant than most creepers. Their soles also slant upwards towards the toe.

>are there other 'rules' in lolita?
ofc, that's how the fashion got to be so cohesive, although it has changed a fair amount. Some old-fashioned roes were that only lolita shoes were appropriate (round toed), that skirts should not be above the knees, and that bloomers should always be worn. As of now, I think the petticoat rule applies, as well as the modesty factor, although I'm sure ero-lolita is an obvious exception.

>a-any pics?

A disgusting trip here who does things exclusively for the attention and to further her "I'm cute cause I don't shower" aesthetic

You just have to look around. There's always end of season sales but it's just really a waiting and hunting game, like for example I stumbled across a site selling SS15 stuff for really cheap the other night. (https://www.theoutnet.com/en-US/Shop/Designers/Moschino))

Ebay is a pain becuase people with coveted brands like Moschino for example know what they have. (It doesn't help Moschino is a brand that holds it's value really well compared to like say Prada, It's the uniqueness of every collection that gives it that love) Yes you can get a discount but it's never too much on ebay at least for like 4-5 seasons but sometimes you will luck out. I will say anything from like >2010 usually can be found for the low becuase a lot of people have the "out of style" mentally and I will say Moschino is one of the faster high fashion houses out there so some of the stuff you'll get will be kinda slightly off trend, but keep in mind that it's brands like these that start the trends. I've gotten tees from like 1999 on the cheap, and I've snaged SLP from the 70s for double digits as well. Just think of a high end brand you like and go looking on ebay, (don't type in vintage in front of it becuase those tend to be the pricer listing) If you're too general you'll have to get though a lot a lame stuff first but you can find gems, think of it as digital thrifting, it also helps to narrow search results, for say jumpers or pants or else you'll be bombarded with a sea of bags, sunglasses, belts and other babies first luxury type items. Also check back regularly you never know what you might miss. There's also online boutiques that specialize in vintage pieces like stated but those can run a bit high.

the legend lives on

>>11414700
i guess if it's necessary, and if it doesnt look obvious, it's fine.

there's always that stigma of the whole 'your children are gonna look ugly' shit though.

Does anyone from /fa/ actually have a /fit/ SO??

>>11415554
It's definitely a good casual outfit, and it feels more natural to look at, as well as super comfy!! I would maybe recommend some headwear?

I think that layering the kimono with a long sleeved top suited it better, and bought more balance on top, considering how long the kimono looks on you. Maybe an oversized scarf for the colder days.

what does cgl think of brad-t? he had a forum called harajuku and all his gf have been lolitas. his last one was an internet famous lolita that he stalked after the break up and got into shit for. i wonder if any cgl girls have had run ins with him online or in person (he lives in canada)

>>11418502
I think he is cute and good looking. I didn't hear about him stalking his last gf but do know he got into a nasty break up with her and the chick went batshit insane for awhile.

>>11418502
Too bad he is balding hard.

>>11418502
/cgl/ please state why any of you would be attracted to someone who dresses like this.

>>11418502
He's old news I guess. Not much to think about, he's got a good face.

>>11418544
Yeah, idk either. He doesn't fit my preferences so I'm biased

>>11418502
i am surprised he is not gay

>>11417360
Well I am from fa and I am having a thing with a guy from fit :33 nomnom muscly guys

>>11418544
What's wrong with what he's wearing, out of curiosity? It's a lot better than what I see most dudes wear, especially dudes with an interest in our weeb shit.
