WTF Burando thread in honor of Meta's latest Etsy kei collab with Pixar.
>>9173683
Can't someone make a single classy Disney dress? I crave something beautiful and nostalgic.
>>9173683
Nice meta hate thread OP.

Here, just for you.
>>9173703
Thought I'd post both jsk versions because I really can't wrap my head around the concept that AP shat this out twice.
It's like the Lolita equivalent of Trubbish evolving into Garbodor.
>>9173712
I see where they're coming from, doesn't make it any less garbage.
>>9173691
Is it humanly possible to make these work
>>9173737
I can see the pink one being used in an OOT Little Bo Peep sort of thing. Light blonde wig, rocking horse shoes, and plain white tights with an obvious bonnet with, hopefully, one matching bow (if possible) and maybe two or three of those flowers. Also the obvious hearding stick with pink and white coloring and maybe a bow as well.
>>9173758
But the dress is still terrible?
>>9173759
At least its a way to use it. I did say OTT. I personally kind of like the haphazard ugliness of it. Like a used doll that was made to be 'as girly and frilly as possible' because the girl who owned it want to make her doll's dress look cuter and girlier, so she kept putting shit on it.
>>9173683
I think they saw the 'costume /=/ inspired' image and took it as a sign.
>>9173683
>Etsy kei
I chortled.
>>9173683
>wish it was more green
>>9173689
Nonono anon you must be confused. You see, what we are looking at here is perfection.
>>9173800
Stop with these memes of taking objectively really badly done dresses and calling them perfection.
>>9173708
>>9173703
this is all i see
>>9173803
Reminds me of pipe cleaners.
>>9173781
That was my first thought, but I can't find the image right now.
>google "toy story lolita"
>IMMEDIATE REGRET
>>9173803
Idk about you but I'd wear it. Can you imagine the work that went into ruffling?
>>9173812
Just because they put a lot of effort into the construction doesn't excuse the design.
>>9173819
I understand that, but that detail is what makes it visually appealing to me.
>>9173828
I can give you a recommendation for an optometrist if you'd like.
>>9173831
Just drop it anon. Clearly the other person finds the irony in something being so ugly. Maybe that's their aesthetic. Afterall there is always at least 1 buyer for this shit.
This is every WTF Burando thread.
I personally know I have shit taste, and I dgaf what you say, I'll wear my tacky clothes with love.
For all the big talk gulls do of 'being bored' and wanting more way off coordinates, we sure do browbeat when something is out of the norm.
Remember girls, don't respond to trolls.
>>9173841
>typical metaposter complaining everyone hates their brand in a wtf burando thread even though most of the thread isn't even meta
Please stop.
>>9173845
like tacky AP too, I'm not picky
>>9173863
>This is every WTF Burando thread.
Meaning we all bicker over what is and isn't deserving of this thread.
Meta is just all over the place, so it's easier to pick out the oddballs.
>>9173683
>9173683
I love you meta, but sometimes you need a hit on the head to make you function correctly again.
>>9173696
This is cute af
>>9173686
I don't know which hurts more, my eyes or my sides
>>9173692
AatP's Queen of Hearts dress is pretty godly, but it's also very gothic, so not everyone's style. BtSSB's Snow White print was also quite lovely, in my opinion.
Other than that, I have also found most of the Disney prints quite disappointing. Especially AatP's Peter Pan one because I had been longing for it for so so long.
I think AatP could make an amazing Princess and the Frog dress, but there's literally no Japanese merchandise of that movie. I have searched many a time.
>>9174179
That's because the Japanese don't have interest in a black princess.
This thread is why metafags(not meta itself) are the worst.
>a single image of meta gets posted and the rest is baby and it gets called a meta hate thread
>every metaposter feels the need to crawl out of the woodwork and defend a meta dress in the thread when no other dress by any other brand is getting defended
>can't accept that people don't like meta so they have to shit up the thread
>>9173696
>loves meta
>loves carousel prints
>everyone loves this print
I want to want it so bad but the colors are so wrong and horrendous I just cant.
>>9173683
I love it and need to own it, I don't care that it's ugly I fell in love with it at first sight.
>>9174182
I know, I just didn't want to say it because I didn't want the thread to get derailed by the ~GLORIOUS NIPPON~ crowd getting defensive and freaking out about someone pointing out the fact that Japan is pretty racist. You won't find Japanese Mulan merchandise either, because Japan in general still is super racist toward the Chinese. I don't know about Pocahontas, but I've never seen any. They're all about Jasmine, though. Lots and lots of Jasmine merch.
I seriously can't wait for an Aladdin themed dress. I know AatP already did Scheherazade, but I want a full on Disney one.
>>9174268
It's not lolita, but Secret Honey did a few Aladdin collabs. They were pretty cute for casual wear.
>>9174274
That dress is the fire of my loins
>>9173845
>implying wtf burando threads aren't typically full of people hating on metadata even when they're admitting they have shit taste
>>9174274
>Green
>>9174530
Green is a much broader range in Japan. As a Lolita, you should be aware of this.
>>9173691
Oh god, now every time Baby comes out with something atrocious, that song is going to immediately come into my head.
The JSK and skirt in other colorways are not so bad but this jacket is something else.
>>9174865
>JSK not so bad
Anon please.
>>9174179
I wish AatP would make something Dr. Facilier-inspired.
>>9174868
I bought this and I don't see the big deal, flip it around. It's not like you can't wear it the other way. It's p cute without the silly styling desu senpai.
>>9174867
I meant not as bad as that jacket.
>>9174873
>>9174875
>>9174868
... this is literally just an upside down hairclip i am so confused
>>9175183
People are acting like its "XD AP so crazy!" when they can literally just flip it over and it's a pretty cute hair clip.
>>9173691
I still really love that pink dress, as terribly gaudy as it is.
Blue is just atrocious though.
I'm a total metafag but the thing that makes them a great brand is how much they experiment, which means they put out a lot of weird shit too.
>>9175204
I love this
>>9175219
They're penises
>>9175204
I totally agree. I honestly think meta is one of my favorite brands solely BECAUSE of the weird and whacky shit they put out. Sure, they have some really terrible pieces but that's really what makes the brand so charming to me.
>>9173846
Would legit wear this to a nuggetfest.
50-50 chance /k/will accept me into their ranks.
Now i want a S.T.A.L.K.E.R coord....
>>9173689
Literally looks like something I'd expect to see a 40 year old sissy to wear. Just needs to be made out of cheap satin.
>>9174868
And I was really hoping the upside down bow would be a quirky new trend..
>>9175356
story time: I was at a con in a dark-ish hallway about a month ago & I saw a lolita from afar in a well fitted, well constructed dress with a cute silhouette (think typical, classical VM) and a pretty standard coord and thought "oh she looks nice..." but as she got closer I realized the dress was ENTIRELY camo print.
I have never regretted a thought more in my life
>>9175910
I'm just surprised you could see her.
>>9173713
I have this dress, and I get why people hate it, but really the only complaint i have is they sewed the front bows down hella crooked, then because of the type of fabric it is, trying to cut them off would leave huge holes in the fabric. The cut of the bodice isn't the most flattering thing ever but I love the print and the colors...meta dropped the ball on this one a little.
I'll just continue to wear it lounging around the house.
>>9174865
This really is much, much better in real life. This colorway is the only one you can see the print properly and it's less vibrant than in the pictures.
>>9173713
This is up for sale on alice plus fururun and by God was I tempted to get it just for novelty.
>>9175356
combat lolita
People like to shitpost about meta, but AATP also makes really ugly shit.
>>9173846
Wow, those sissy sleeves.
>>9175936
A+ comment.
>>9173683
My husband just said someone should pair this with a headdress shaped like a claw machine claw. He was trying to be an ass but I don't disagree.
>>9185903
>those dresses
>non ita
lol
>>9185903
As someone who used to have both of these as dream dresses, I genuinely don't understand how to coordinate them as a white person living in the US. The only good kimono print coords I've seen were from girls in Asia wearing their traditional garb over and under. The one girl had the most beautiful and elegant ivory silk kimono sleeved thing. If I coord them like the stock photos, it'll probably look pretty ita
I got really excited for the rerelease tomorrow until I thought about this again.
More AATP
>>9185916
If the background gray on that print were darker this piece might actually be kinda cute but that cement gray is just bad.
>>9185903
Meta's done better kimono prints than those two. I feel like for those two specifically they were trying to emulate the Meiji Restoration gowns that used traditional wafuku fabric, but it's a bit... much. i really wish they'd do a OP that emulates the Taisho school uniform look though.
>>9185912
Start learning about kimono, it'll probably help you a lot to get familiar with them.
You don't have to be asian to wear kimono.
>>9174877
It looks... marginally less penile in person
>tfw you have both this and the usakumya dick pen
I swear I'm not starting a collection
>>9173686
This is not....appealing
Does anyone else hate these pants?
>>9185912
Don't just wear them with a plain blouse. Seconding >>9185934 learn more about wafuku. Layering garments over it like boleros and scarves will also help. There are people who wear flower accessories with wa, lurk for inspiration.
>>9185916
When AATP and BTSSB produce shit, it's so bad it makes Meta look tame. Pic related.
>>9187385
I hate this goddamn dress so much. I can't imagine anyone thinking it was a good idea, it looks like the model rolled around on a bunch of fabric scraps and whatever stuck became the dress
>>9174274
I like it but I also can't help but think it looks like it would fit a little weird in general. I guess that's just because I'm an amazonian and I know the waist would never get past my bust.
Perfect for my lolita biker gang
>>9187394
There is nothing unusual about this.
>>9187401
Kek I posted the gingham adhesive dress, ngl I think this one's one's not so bad. If they actually chose fabrics that went together it'd be busy but still pleasant in its own way.
It's the effing gingham that triggered me, combined with the christmas gift ribbons.
>>9187378
Wtf. Looks like something hot topic would've sold back in the early 2000s
>>9185912
I had the second one and it was very easy to coordinate as simple lolita with a blouse and lolita shoes and socks or just regular clothes with a cardigan and normie shoes. It was versatile and I wore it a lot. It's a kimono inspired print on a very normal-looking dress, not an actual kimono.
>>9174877
These are my favourite things smd
Hey baby why
I want to cry
>>9187662
This. That heart apron piece is actually pretty darn cute.
>>9173683
IS THIS MISAKO I AM FUCKING SHRIEKING
>>9187666
Misako has done some really terrible shit Lolita wise.
>>9187666
>this is my ultimate dream dress
>fuck this anti-old school bait so hard
>>9187655
Wtf is wrong with you, this is adorable.
>>9173708
>It's like the Lolita equivalent of Trubbish evolving into Garbodor.
anon, my fucking sides
>>9187527
IIRC ichiroya has vintage kimono? Also some etsy and rakuten sellers. Idk about the prices on etsy though. You could always check the archives for more info, as we have really good kimono threads once in a while.
>>9187400
I'd feel like such a magical girl in this.
Maxicimam's Rainbow Colored Sky Sweet Skirt. Looks cute for fairy-kei, honestly.
>>9188454
I wouldn't wear that with fairy kei. The color combination is so ugly
>>9173846
What's the name of this... Not like I want to find it out anything?
>>9188665
> color combination is so ugly
Anon, it's yellow, lavender and pink. Very typical cute pastels. Like pic related, it's very cute for fairy kei.
>>9188835
That one is acceptable because it's paler and closer to each other
>>9173683
From far away, I thought the aliens were stars, and I thought it was some cute July 4th looking dress. Sucks.
>>9187401
>>9173691
>>9173703
I LOVE THIS DRESS
Oh my GOD I love lacemonsters, it's the challenge to make something so frumpy look so good and there's some amazing photos that I have seen that look gorgeous.
>>9187666
why u shitting on old school bro
>>9187412
I absolutely love this.
>>9173691
..... the pink one is kinda cute.. even if it is kinda gaudy
>>9187408
I have this
No ragrets.
>>9187527
Etsy actually has a lot of estate sale kimonos for dirt cheap. As long as you dont feel squelchy about wearing a dead person's clothes.
>>9187527
Sou Japan on eBay has great stuff for cheap (dat free EMS shipping).Their photos are edited though, so keep that in mind.
Proxying stuff from yahoo Japan is probably the next cheapest since you can get all your basics (e.g obijime, obiage, juban) in one lot for around $30.
>>9192427
Paired it with engineer boots and brand handkerchiefs as a bandana, and you've got the perfect biker coord
>>9175356
I think one of our tripfags went to last year's nuggetfest in a maid outfit and nekomimi ears, so a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. coord wouldn't be too weird. Unless you're a girl, then it'd be kinda gay.
>>9185931
>Taisho school uniform look
Meta putting out something like that sounds like a total dream.
>>9192463
Damn this reminds me that we haven't had a decent kimono thread on /cgl/ in forever.
>>9188847
I agree, first one would look pretty if they stuck to one red.
>>9187666
But this is gorgeous.
>>9189370
As weird as some of the old Meta stuff is, I really like it
>>9187653
literally just my grandma's couch
>>9173804
I laughed
AP why
>>9198675
While this is mediocre and I wouldn't ever wear it, I don't think this is WTF. I can actually see someone making something decent if it were like a gurokawa coord.
Not Lolita though.
I should really go back and scan this now that I have a scanner
Barbie Collab is always a good one
>>9198815
Those AP socks with bunny ears belongs with this. I would wear the shit out of those, not even kidding.
>>9198675
WTF? Is this a new cutsew OP?
>>9198675
This would have been cute if it was print-less :/
>>9198890
AP does this often, why are you surprised?
>>9198675
I actually like it in every color but that one
>>9198675
If there was no print I'd buy it
Saw this on wunderwelt, it's Baby
>>9199243
lol, it's sold out in every colourway but this.
I'm regretting not jumping on it when it released. I was sad that it didn't have batwings on it but I really like how it's a witchy outfit contained in itself, no extra pointy hat required, and the print actually looks better on the cutsew than the jsk. Oh well, hopefully girls start selling them after Halloween.
>>9200374
That's just the worst colourway with a petticoat too small for the dress. It's a cute dress with some unfortunate colourway choices.
>>9200395
Another good one
>>9187406
I really like what this could have been...
Something about some of the tiers looks so...cheap? And the bottom one could be just a little shorter to be evenly tiered....
Just bitchin' cause I really would have liked this.
>>9187412
I want this more than life.
>>9200416
I think it looks cheap because it's shiny organza, if it was all made out of black cotton and each tier was a little longer to match the bottom I would love it
A chiffon blouse with a hood and cat ears? Is AP high?
>>9198675
oy gevalt
>>9203409
How.....how could that look good?
>>9187378
I think i saw those pants in a "how to draw manga" book once
>>9187393
I disagree, I think this series looks exactly like what an OTT lolita magical girl would dress as. It's very decadent and not for every-day wear but I think the excessive bows are actually pretty tastefully placed.
>tfw I know I'm just a tacky bitch, tho
>>9187412
I kinda dig this. It's not lolita at all, but it could work as a mormal jacket
>>9198675
At first I thought this was a Jewish-themed print. That would be hilarious
>>9173683
Milk
>>9198816
I really, really love this dress. not because its lolita at all, but because it l looks better as a barbie doll dress than a real people dress
>>9174428
>implying there isn't perfectly valid reason why meta makes up so much of wtf burando threads
>>9185916
New ouji dream item.
