Those shoes are so cute!
>Are they doing Lolita fashion justice?
Imo yeah. They look super cute in lolita!
>What new prints should they wear next?
Not a print but all the photos I've seen of them are them wearing sweet, so I'd really like to see them wear something more mature like sweet classic.
>Lolita idols our future kawaii overlords?
They probably won't gain that much popularity but I hope it does become a thing.
>Where is your best girl now?
Best girl flip flops between Aira and Caty so one is still active and one graduated. I think Melo is super cute too but honestly all the girls are cuties.
>Is Meltia management mad, genius, or just doing it wrong?
Considering 1/3rd of the group is gone, they'd better buck up and make sure the remaining girls stay or we won't see a second anniversary.
>Will we get to see the 2nd anniversary?
Hopefully? See above.
What are some of your hobbies Cgl?
Are there any hobbies you got into because of Cosplay/Lolita?
Are there any you've dropped to make more time for Cosplay/Lolita?
Do you have any that completely contrast with your interest in Cosplay/Lolita?

My grandma taught me how to press flowers and I do that when I have the time. I prefer to use the flowers in my garden so I haven't been able to do much this winter unfortunately. Sometimes I take advantage of the post Valentines sales and buy bouquets just because.
>>8861783
That's so sweet Anon!
I collect postcards. A lot of what I've got in my collection are new and I display them in a collage that takes up pretty much an entire wall of my room. But I also have some old ones that belonged to my grandmother and some I bought online.
At the moment my goal is own some Kira Imai postcards.
Love the series' and the costumes. Show me what you got. Anyone working on one? I'm working on my Father Gascoigne and my buds going with Gavlan.
Seagulls don't play real video games.

I was thinking to make Vicar Amelia, something between her human and monster form
Figured I'd start off with a good one.

New LARP thread
larp pics, questions, stuff goes here
Are ren fair costumes welcome as well? I do a lot of high fantasy stuff and I'd love to show my progress and discuss construction, but since I won't actually roleplay but just enjoy the crafting I'm not sure if this is the right space.
>>8878862
I'm pretty sure that depends on the larp and what are their setting. postapoc larps have different standards than high fantasy and low fantasy ones and even in just one genre there are differences.
But if you just want to show the costume, then yeah, go for it, it's totally accepted here
>>8878866
Cool! In that case it won't hurt to show my progress and ask for some concrit. Yesterday I finished the harness for my wings. The costume is gonna be a harpy. Now it's time to work out claws and clothes.

Hey OP it's Isle of Wight not Isle of White. Can you edit please? We have two or three black people living here now, progress is happening.
Not posting links in OP edition, use the catalog. Old thread >>8882652
So I really like the look of SDC and it's still in stock but I hate the carousel horses, I keep thinking about getting it but I like themes that are a bit more mature, like florals and architecture. I saw there was a sheer opal fabric jsk from baby that is similar but haven't seen it for sale in black, just pink. Hoping to see more of the interesting fabrics for sale
>>8889301
Given how SDC is not selling out on AP's site, it's gonna go on sale / cheap second hand if a low price is something that will help you settle.
Does anyone know an in store SS based in Osaka?
I sent an inquiry to Kairai (think a couple of other gulls have used them), but they're looking to charge 15,000 yen more than the price of the item. Has anyone else used them for a place other than Tokyo?
Only the good stuff

Is it worth ordering anything from AE this close to CNY? Just curious.

>sponsored dress
>#lolitafashion #gothiclolita
god why do they sponsor people who cant even coord for shit?
>>8880152
You see sponsored posts on tumblr still?
>>8880204
I assumed OP meant "sponsored by "kawaii" shops that give away stuff in exchange for good reviews from popular people".
>>8880152
Lol at that face shoop.
That dress is milanoo tier and even with good materials the design and color combination is still terrible.
That and she can't coord for shit, she just put on some shoes,a wig and shooped the hell out of her face
New bad cosplay thread.
Old one on autosage >>8861463
My friend and I are doing a panel at an upcoming convention. The con is filled with newbie con goers so we want to do a panel to help them know what to do and what not to do at a convention. Share the dos and don'ts of convention, tips and tricks, horror stories, roommate stories, room etiquette, etc...
Just curious but is it Genericon in the capital region?
Also, personal space + cleanliness
>>8863776
Nope it's a con in Ohio
Dos:
-Bring extra money in case of emergency!
-Bring a bag to carry impulse purchases in
-Carry all documentation on you, con reg, hotel info, ETC
-Brings food and drinks. Hotel food is expensive and nobody pays $15 for a double shot!
-If in cosplay, bring a bag of sewing supplies just in case
-Be polite, nobody likes a guy rushing and bumping into everyone
-Phone charger, bring one
-comfortable shoes in a bag if you're in heels. After a few hours, you'll need them.
-Be mindful of large props! They can break, or whack someone
Donts:
-Don't be over stimulated, screaming all over the place is no fun for anyone.
-Steal, should be obvious, but there are busts all the time.
-Bring live steel. Security checks it, nobody likes it, you'll just get kicked out.
-Go anywhere with strangers. Kinda obvious as well, but even in groups of gulls, be careful!
-Argue with staff. Holy fuck, do NOT argue with staff.
-Run. It can imply a lot of things from theft, to an actual emergency.
-Glomp/hug/whatever without permission. Its as best creepy and at worst can get you removed for sexual assault.
-Kinda odd, but I've seen people in crossplay enter the bathrooms of their crossplayed gender. Seems odd, some cons may have rules against this.
Old one 404'd somewhere.
Don't have much but just found this.
