Listen Flavor announced they are going to produce "very old" products again as part of the 11th anniversary.
http://zakka-mart.com/ got a load of itabags and Menhera buttons today.

Some remake/v2 releases from CC in July
>>9503009
There's a cute menherachan maid cafe collab.
Listen Flavor's designer is asking on Twitter for everyone's favorite colors out of pic related as they are going to be used in the fall/winter shirts.
https://twitter.com/listenflavor777/status/869939876812136448
>>9503023
Could get some interesting results, I have no idea what's popular with listen flavor fans.

kawaiigoods are making some menhera socks apparently
>>9503041
>>9503045
and a tshirt
Question that has been possibly asked a hundred times, how do you all pull off wearing menhera irl? Do you wear it irl at all or just for selfies inside? Have you ever received negative attention especially for the more BDSM aspects?
>>9503048
This is so ugly...
>>9503245
>Have you ever received negative attention especially for the more BDSM aspects?
As said in previous threads, it depends on where you live but in times of o-ring chokers at the H&M teen section (pic related) because of Shades of Grey's popularity, most people don't care.
>>9503245
My answer is I wear it every single day. If I'm not working, I'm wearing the clothes I bought. On a evening walk, to the grocery store, out to eat, at the house, shopping, you get the picture. Anywhere. Mind you, not every print is a BDSM print. There's no need to hyper-focus on that aspect. Also, there's more leeway when something is art related. Walking around in actual ropes would likely lead to some questions, wearing a shirt featuring art with a bunch of ropes is more passable. After all, normal people love H.R. Giger and Shades of Grey.
The clothing isn't particularly revealing compared to what is normal where I live. It's an oversize shirt. The normal outfit in summer where I live is daisy dukes and crop tops or tanks.
>>9503245
I wear it (the darker/simpler style like Amatsukami and Wagado). It's mainstream enough. Although I try to avoid crosses or hexagrams because they occasionally attract awkward conversation.
>>9502986
I'm pretty sure anon was referring to the gore aspect of menhera/gurokawa?
>>9503301
That anon is a troll that has been going on about making abortion coords for months already, don't take them serious in the first place.
>>9503340
You know what if this anon is serious and you're just shitting on their self esteem because they just have a bad idea?
>>9503346
If it would be like this the mods wouldn't delete their bullshit idea of smearing period blood on their tights and wearing abortion pills
>>9503351
Mods/janis just delete stuff that gets enough reports so a thread doesn't derail or posts they don't like.
>>9503355
>implying period blood smearing and abortion pills aren't OT
>>9503360
>they are
Anon, you must be new to not remember Ye Olden Days of these exact things being discussed here.
>>9503389
Then you should remember that it was confirmed to be a troll as it was HWC who started it.
>>9503406
Don't. You're encouraging her.
>>9503256
It's why I said especially for the BDSM aspects, of course there's the medical themes and such but I imagine those are less..frowned upon motifs? Like I could see it being less offensive where minors are present etc.
>>9503467
The bondage themed parts are usually rather subtle and blend well into the outfit, a stranger won't take note of it unless closeup, /if/ they even understand the what's depicted. The average metal and hardcore band tee is way more explicit while nobody bats an eye.
If you are afraid of strange remarks, I don't think jfashion is the best choice desu as it will always attract attention.
>>9503467
I live where there's a plethora of men young and old on any given day wearing a shirt depicting a scantly clad lady with a slogan such as, "Liquor in the front, poker in the rear." That might give you a better answer.
A sneakpeak from the Listen Flavor 11 anniversary collection, monster cat.
>>9503041
How does kawaiigoods still exist. Like do they make enough money to continue their business...?
>>9504096
She is a housewife that doesn't work and everything has been made-to-order for a while already, she doesn't need to invest any money into her business, it's like running a redbubble.
are there any boys who dress similar?
sometimes i wish i was a girl so i could dress more like what im interested in
>>9504772
I could work with the colors and pattern. I'm just disappointed how it compares to her other work. The MS Paint comparison sadly isn't far off. If it was on par with her other work, I could rock them, color and all. I wonder if she was attempting a pixel theme. I like the accessories she has been making.
>>9504096
As far as staying in business, she does have over 8,000 who added her shop to a favorite's list. Plus, her accessories are a big seller.
>>9504921
There are boys, but they aren't common. I have seen one boy actually rock the thigh high look with a pair of shorts. They pulled it off well. You can incorporate skinny jeans in coordinating colors. The shirts aren't an issue since the majority are "unisex". Basically, they are men's shirts worn by women in most cases. Most the accessories and shoes can be worn by either gender: collars, wrist cuffs, chunky boots/sneakers, and necklaces. If you do wear it, you'll likely find the finished outfit not looking too far off from what you'd see an emo kid wearing. It's fairly easy to incorporate the looks into a masculine sense if you are cool with rocking pastel since darker colors are less common.
>>9504921
Adding to what I said, the only thing to be super mindful of is the sleeve length of long-sleeve shirts so you don't end up with a 3/4 sleeve.
>>9504923
That's a good point. If they were on par with the rest of her work I feel like they could have actually been decent. I wonder if she's just trying to quickly churn out work to cash in on the rising Menhera trend. The accessories aren't half bad. Honestly, I'm pretty into pic related. It's simple enough to be cute.
>>9504921
Me. I don't have public photos, but just do the same thing with skinny jeans instead of shortshorts/thighhighs. Nobody can tell if you buy "women's" tops because nothing is fitted.
Somebody called me a fag on a street once for wearing a lavender top but if you give a shit, Amatsukami and stuff.
>>9504926
Oh thats a good point that a boy might look similar to an emo kid, kinda helps me visualize what I might look like better.
For me i think it might work better if I go for more Menhera type accessories like earrings and necklaces. I'm really tall and dont wanna look too goofy
>>9504957
> calls self "boy"
> earrings and necklaces are a "safe" option

Anyone know or able to find what socks those are or have a different picture of them?

Predatorrat x ORtiz collab, not avaiable at the intl site tho.
>>9504088
Seems like they go a bit back to their old style for the 11th anniversary.
>>9503254
I think someone from the H&M team needs to have a seat right over here...
>>9505743
Okay... I laughed. You got a chuckle from me.
Byojaku(and some hair) inspo incoming. I've picked a mix of strong and subtle.

>>9506769
They are too neon but when the socks are worn they do go paler from stretching so they need to be a little stronger, they take it too far.
>>9506769
This is my problem with like 99% of their works.
Conpeitou activated the intl shipping option in their shop.
>>9508714
Matching Mole (the one with the guro koi tights) also ship intl now, says right so in their about.
matchingmole.shopselect.net
>>9508714
Can someone post a link to this shop or direct me to a shop directory because searching "Conpeitou " and "Conpeitou jp" doesn't really bring up a menhera shop.
Thanks!
>>9509063
Here you go!

LF got a restock of the last Menhera collab prepearing for the new one coming out at the 18th.
>>9510051
Mini-dump incoming. Posted most of these before, but here's some more "masculine" styles for those interested.
ankoROCK always has male models. Another brand that showcases male models or "masculine" outfits is Deorart. Both brands include a mixture of styles, but still good reference.
>http://www.ankorock.co.jp
>http://www.deorart-shop.jp
Proof that many tops will fit males and females equally because unisex.
And if none of those float your boat... you could just wear thigh high socks and an oversize shirt because why not.
Menharabusu got a restock of some older tigh highs.
Has anyone ever diy painted thigh highs tights or stockings? Just wondering if it looks crap
>>9511526
That likely depends on how clean you can make the results. It won't look like a pair of printed thigh highs, no. If you use a stencil, make sure the paint is applied evenly, and watch for bleeds, you could end up with something decent. I'd be concerned about how the paint would hold up after putting the thigh highs on because of stretch.
>>9510541
Just picked up some of this after looking into them. Thanks anon.
I don't get the price for thee tee dress, it is the same style as the first collab but the price doubled?
Anyone have examples of menhera/guro kawaii pieces in non-menhera coordinates? Would like to tie it in more with my western/normie fashion until I can build my wardrobe up enough to wear a proper full coordinate. Till then I don't want these pieces just sitting my closet.
>>9513783
They're just T-shirts or printed hoodies. Just wear them with skinny black jeans ffs. Pair with all stars. It's like you were never emo.
>>9504088
holy shit, pumped
interesting but a bit edgy. idk maybe someone will enjoy
>https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/480173776
>>9513993
It's the menhera thread, embrace it.
Codometal ships international now too, meaning you can get Zenkimi and Tsurezure band tees.
http://codomomental.thebase.in/
>>9513407
My guess is there's more demand this time around which lets them charge a higher price. The other factor could be they simply had to charge more for a number of reasons that involve higher cost.
>>9515200
I wouldn't be surprised if they had to try harder to cover the harajuku stores rent these days
>>9515442
They announced that they will move away from Harajuku, while searching for new shop staff some months ago, tho.
Hot Topic is currently selling two bandaid hair clips at 20 percent off:
https://www.hottopic.com/product/pastel-bandage-hair-clips-2-pack/10930018.html
The last remaining stock of Shojo Kenjiyoku will be sold at Candye Syrup now instead of online, the website is announced to close soon.
>>9515593
Oh good that is for the best. Harajuku has real gentrification issues.
>>9515442
That is sad. :c
When I went to harajuku by far the store with the best customer service was listen flavor.
>>9517013
Besides that they already have space issues for a while already, more so with new releases coming out every 2 weeks.
Pic related, I am surprised they could manage to stay in there for 11 years already.
>>9515593
Did they announce which area they're going to move to?
>>9517342
No, probably because haven't decided on a location yet, I guess?
I wonder who LF's new model is, they sure make a huge secret out of it.
>>9515593
That's sad, but can't be helped I supposed. The store IS really small, I was feeling anxious after being in there for a few minutes
>>9516800
Why? I thought they were getting rid of their stock to make room for a new collection
>>9520749
They announced their closing already in last summer when they closed their irl shop. Did you really miss all of that?
Funky Fruit announced they will open a new store, more information will be sent via their newsletter once done.
Fall will be interesting fabric wise at Listen Flavor.
I see a ton of baggy shirts/sweatshirts when it comes to menhera, and I don't see any fitted tees in coords. Is that the "official" silhouette that comes with the fashion? I can bear it if it's tucked into high-waisted shorts/pants/skirts, but not untucked.
Asking because I personally have come to loathe the baggy trend going on right now, but I want to try menhera. (I thought it was cute until I got to university and saw that ALL the sorority girls wear the exact same enormous tees over tiny athletic shorts. Clones everywhere.)
>>9521174
untucked baggy tops are the most common look but it's not like a rule or anything
>>9521187
I don't have many examples because I hate fitted tees
>>9521190
>>9521194
>>9521196
>>9521197
Best bet for non-oversize seems to be Taobao brands in general.
>>9521200
Very kind of you to dump pics. Thank you!
>>9521200
Or buying from ttrinity shops as you can choose the style yourself there.
>>9521174
It's a common silhouette in the fashion. You can buy unisex shirts in a size 'S' for a slightly more fitted look. I've only on the rarest occasion seen a shirt cut smaller then what is usual. Al&El and one other shirt with some ribbons and safety razors come to mind.
Red Bubble, Ttrinity, Society 6, and Threadless all offer women's fitted clothing. CherryCheezy has lately been releasing items in fitted AA tees. You can wear it how you want, but it'll look quite different then most the images you see here. You may have to look at other fashion styles to get ideas for a complete outfit.
Forgot to add a picture.
Sweater is baggy for sure, but maybe it'll remind you less of the sorority girl's day off look.
I'm done, but I hope that helps maybe save some time scrolling.
AnkoRock got a sale with like 50% off so a lot is affordable now in comparison to usual.

>>9521197
Where can i find those gloves?
>>9522531
I hate it when the nurse herself is sick/hurt
>>9523641
They are part of the top.
>>9523652
Anon SAME.
I'm not sure if its because I'm in the medical field but I'm really not into the guro aspect of some menhera. Some things get a pass from me because of a simple blood drip. But bring on the cute band aids and syringes. Things that are more in line with ornamenting healing tools.
Anyone else think this way?
Ah well anyway, I'm a medical student and they've started us on cadavers, AMA
>>9524814
>Ah well anyway, I'm a medical student and they've started us on cadavers, AMA
Do you get sad when you see a very pretty/young/healthy corpse, or delighted because they look nicer than usual?
>>9524866
So far I've only encountered elderly ones but I do get sad when they have nice nails. They don't take off the nail polish you know and it makes you realize how much of a person they were. If that makes sense. I am happy when I get to see a healthy one though because that's far less fat to clean and muscles are more prominent. Please exercise in your old age if nothing else but to prevent a fatty heart.
>>9511526
I did it years ago to do those BJD tights before they were available everywhere. Turned out fine, I used watered down brown acrylic paint in the shaded areas and applied it more heavily for stronger lines. Dunno how it'd work out with pastel colours. Also I painted the tights whilst they were on my legs, so either do that, or get someone to model while you paint them, because it'll stretch out weird if you don't.
>>9524814
Do you have that one guy in your group who's a little bit too enthusiastic and not quite respectful enough of the cadavers? There's at least one in every medical school.
>>9525294
For my particular tank theres just this one guy who insists on naming our cadaver Old Nan which I guess is a Game of Thrones reference but I've never seen the show. But in the tank next to us theres this guy who's always talking about how it reminds him of food. Which I kinda get, fat is as bright yellow as egg yolk, muscle is literally meat, and when I cracked the rib cage its resemblance to pork ribs was uncanny. Also lab is 2 hours and right before lunch. You in medicine too anon?
>>9525304
The cadaver at my school looked like Peking crispy duck.
>>9525304
Yup, I'm well out the other side of anatomy labs though - it was REALLY not my strong point and I used to leave the labs early, basically straight after dissection we would have semi self-directed stuff with the prosections etc. I don't recommend doing that though as I barely scraped a passing grade for anatomy.
No surprises that I'm going to be a physician rather than a surgeon...anatomical planes do not excite me.
Yuu will be at AX with a booth.
>>9525333
They do always tell us that how into dissecting we are is indicative of who wants to be a surgeon. But I don't think I'll be capable of going that route anyway. Regardless congrats anon for getting all that behind you.
To keep this a little more relevant, would you wear j-fashion on campus? I've slowly been integrating my Lolita fashion pieces but I Never wear brand on a lab day even though we change into scrubs. and when it comes to menhera I've found syringe motifs to be fairly acceptable: pens, earrings, etc.
>>9525313
aw anon no, I love duck. but I think I see it, the embalming makes it all beige
I have 5 pairs of CC socks and a pair of the shibari tights that I'm never going to wear and that are just sitting in my closet. Would anyone be interested in buying them off me?
>>9526915
Post pics?
>>9526921
I'd rather sell them as a lot
>>9526925
How much are you looking for the lot?
>>9526977
They're going for around $25 each on LM but if someone buys the lot probably $75 and shipping.
>>9526986
Sorry, Kei Market. Same deal.
>>9525648
Never on lab days, yes for lectures, maybe for tutorials.
>>9526986
Not that anon, but if I see the listing Thursday, I might seriously buy it if it is $75.00.
>>9526925
I might be interested, what sizes are they?
>>9527133
I everything is for the small/medium sizing unless she sent the larger ones on accident.
>>9526988
Are they still listed/available? I just checked Kei Market to take a look at the listings and couldn't find them. Not sure if I'd have the cash for the whole lot but I was hoping someone would resell their shibari tights since they kept selling out of CC's shop before I could grab them.
Another LF sneakpeak for the first fall/winter release, I guess it will be halloween-y as usual.
>>9527569
I haven't listed them yet. I really would like to sell them as a lot so I'm not running back and forth to the post office.
>>9527837
Listed
>>9521174
Fitted tees arent menhera, no matter how cute the print, especially if you have large breasts. You're supposed to look comfortable, not squeezed in
>>9529157
Fitted tees can be oversized too tho, only means that the cut got a waist instead of being a plain square.
>>9518163
The new model will be unveiled tomorrow.
I just got these bun covers in the mail, do you think I can wear them with menhera?
>>9529211
That question is as supid as asking if you can wear hair ties.
Alright guys, everyone wants me to split the set for the socks so if you want them they're $25+ shipping each.
>>9529391
Shibari tights and the more popular stripped pill socks are $30 BIN but for gulls if you message me I'll drop it to $25 + shipping.
>>9521735
Does anyone know where the skirt is from?
I'm assuming taobao?
>>9529391
I'm interested anon but want to know first if your home is free of pets and smoking?
>>9529629
Heart sutra prints are easy to remember as they are only done by https://shop151668555.taobao.com/
>>9529668
It says on all the listings that I am smoke/pet free
>>9529189
Nobody who that is, the two new prints are old fairy prints remade for gurokawa.
New Anima gurokawa tee designed by Hizgi.
Any high in pastel colors menhera inspo for men?
>>9532532
That's a stupid thing to request for an unisex fashion.
>>9526993
ah yea, that stands to reason. Thanks for the replies anon. I'm often testing the waters but I never see any other medical school gulls on cgl to bounce off of.
>>9504088
>>9505434
Release date is set for the 15th of next month, only seems to be those two tees for the 11th anniversary as well as a re-release of pic related.

Seems like Yu couldn't wait once again, it's all already online for preorder.
>>9535093
This is like the third or fourth person I've seen using what very clearly is a capsule shaped mold and not gelatin capsules to make pills and I'm going insane because I can't find any such molds
>>9521742
Source on these shirts?
>>9535704
They are by Lolita Syndrome which has its online store open like once in two years as Moco is busy working at Candye Syrup.
>>9535686
You won't find anything as they use pipettes instead of molds.
>>9535093
I love this.
>>9533364
Honestly, I went through my mallgoth and my ita as fuck phase during med school and no-one gave a shit because I was always well dressed and normie for clinical. Obviously it depends on the university as well and you should never be dressed impractically e.g petticoats do not go well with tutorials on how to examine a patient.
Given that medical people in general deal with people from all walks of life, being into alt fashion is not a big deal in the grand scheme of things.
That being said, I would keep that part of your life somewhat separate from your professional life. Start using a pseudonym on facebook now or create a separate page.
Anyone else disappointed with the lack of quality of menhera goods you can get overseas?
>>9536577
You didn't search well then.
>>9536710
The best stuff you can get from western artists is CC's stuff and desu I only like a few of her older designs. Kawaiigood is straight up ugly, zombieunicornjewelry refuses to work with resin so her pieces always look sloppy, and so on
>>9536741
Have you not seen the average content labeled menhera at jp sites? Even the worst examples under Menhera at etsy are tame in comparison to ttrinity and booth.
>>9536741
There's a shitton of good western artists you probably don't know then but I won't post any of here as everytime non-jp content is posted, people will shit on it in their yellowfever.
>>9536786
Would be nice to know what you consider good as even most of the popular JP brands are pretty basic vectors and weebie doodles.
The ACDC Rag Skeleton stuff got a blackxpurple variant now.

>>9538354
Some people look really cute in that style of hat, especially worn over long hair. I look silly in them, but I think it is a good idea.
>>9536936
They also have lightweight sheer jackets since today, may be nice if you want to wear something in bad weather and still want to show the print of your top.
>>9538354
it's cute but i don't think hats like that goe with menhera, even though that character is popular in menhera coords

I have it in red and I love how light it is. It's good for summer.

Comfy, not sloppy

According to you, loose socks shouldn't be worn either while wearing clothes sloopy is popular af as it attributes to the "sickness" look.
TOM is stocking PARK now, including the Menhera-chan collab.
>>9539262
It's your own problem if such a hat looks sloppy on you. Those hats can look very well put together in the right outfit. As I said, I can't wear them because it doesn't look right with my hair length, but sloppy is a strange choice of words.

Visitor from handmade general here, I have been designing some cool stuff recently and made a totally custom zipper pouch with menhera in mind. Does this fit the aesthetic as is or do you have any recommendation for different motifs or styles that would make it better suited or more desirable? I do intend to include a matched ribbon loop for clipping it on to things on the final version.
Thanks for any input you care to provide.

I like the cross but I don't like the zip cutting it in half? If the zip was on the size of the pouch I'd like it a lot more.
>>9548212
The zipper placement is a little limited by the way the machine I use to make these operates-- maybe something in a pill shape can accomplish that? I'll be back with a new draft next week then. What colors are most preferred in menhera? Mostly pastels, if I'm learning right from your threads?
Apparently Digital Artwear was bought up by another company, let's all hope they get their shit together now.
>>9549263
What company have they been bought up by? It has been a week and they still havn't replied to my emails.
Hi, I'm very new to menheraand I usually stick to really cutesy fashions like lolita, I was wondering if you guys think these accessories would work in the fashion
The lot for the CC socks is still for sale. Please help me take these off of my hands. The longer they sit the more I want to keep them.
The whole lot is $75 + $7 shipping to the US. I'll have to calculate for outside.
>>9542256
I do not want to break the lot but if you really want them $25 + $15(untracked)/$30 (tracked)
I refund any difference in shipping over $2 if it ends up being less.
>>9549133
I dont mind the zip too much since its so neat
Youre looking at pastels, pink and reds and black and red
>>9549422
desu I can't really judge the socks too well while they're off your body. My first impression is that they're a tad bit too childish and cutesy for menhera (not in a creepy-cute way). Maybe the same for the syringe with the decorations on it? the plain syringe would definitely fit right in with the fashion, though.

Hola Ink
Leaving this here because randomly found while looking tru taobao

>>9549422
I don't know what exactly you plan to do with the pen other then having a cute writing utensil. There's plenty that the strawberry syringe will match since strawberries make an appearance with some regularity. Although, most pink outfits will match it, strawberries or not. The socks are cute, but they are going to be an absolute pain to match with all the colors featured. The green, teal, and dark purple aren't really colors that make an appearance in the fashion. You might not be able to find an outfit they'll work for simply because of the color coordinating.
I want to add that I'm not saying you can't have other colors in the fashion. It's just the colors >>9551014 mentioned work best because they are the colors that brands commonly utilize. It just makes putting together an outfit infinitely easier if you stick to those palettes.
>>9549422
Absolutely not. This look extremely cheap and childish. Like dollar store cheap
>>9549422
Way too cutesy imo. The gems on the syringe makes it lose the menhera vibe and the glitter glue looks clumpy. It's menhera, it's not supposed to overly cutesy even though there are pastels everywhere.
>>9549422
The necklace looks poorly filled and made not sure the socks will be long enough also
>>9536876
Surprisingly someone just did it.
>>9549422
The decorated syringe is cute IMO, but instead of red glitter, I think you should have used pink (either hot pink or pastel pink, to be exact). The way the red glitter clashes with the gems and pink bow makes it look cheap.The plain one is fine on its own, but a bit too dark (unless you're shooting to mostly make black/monochromatic Menhera coords).
If the socks aren't too short, they could also work (though the colors are a bit hard to coord with, and I can see the print not being very visible/cohesive unless you look closely because of the type of material used).
Also I don't really get the people calling this childish or "too cutesy". We're out here with

This is very, very far from a mature fashion, like it or not, anons. There may be darker, more creepy-focused iterations, but that's not the end-all, be-all.
CC's shop will be closed temporarily.
>>9553317
I agree, neither is incorrect. It can be very cute.
It can also be very dark.

Hi, I'm back, I've redone the necklace, and I decided to throw on an outfit so I could show you it and the socks, I do know that the clothes I'm wearing aren't menhera, I would also like to know if you guys think I could use the shoes in the fashion, I'm sorry if it's bad, but I really just need concrit so I can improve (excuse my gross hair btw, I've been at home all day because I have the flu)
>>9556407
Here's a close up of the necklace
>>9556407
And here's a close up of the shoes and socks
>>9556407
I'm sorry, anon, but the scissors on your socks look like dicks.
>>9556407
I have to ask because of your shoulders and legs...
Are you a man?
>>9556409
>>9556407
>>9556410
The necklace looks a bit better, though cloudy/dark somehow.
Unfortunately, just as I feared, the socks don't really fit in since the pattern isn't so immediately obvious. I'd ditch the shoes, too, but Menhera's not very shoe-centric unless you're going for darker stuff (in which case, always go with black) so that's a meh.
You're on track, anon, keep trying.
>>9556678
No, either it's the angle or I have a weird body type, this is me
>>9556407
I agree you are on the right track. I don't know if it is an issue, but it is worth mentioning that Listen Flavor doesn't have anything too bizarre on their website. The worst I've seen is there anniversary shirt with the demon girl, and that wasn't even particularly offensive. It's hard to improve until you buy clothing fitting of the style since it's not terribly hard to get down the basics of wearing it.
>>9556409
I like the glitter in the the new version more. The prior did remind me of the chunky glitter in cheap nail polish.
Just keep at it. If you are at a loss for socks, you can buy plain colored and striped stockings. I guess just work on getting socks and shirts since you likely already have plenty of skirts in your closet that would work. The one you are wearing is perfect. I don't know what to say about shoes. If you want really nice shoes, you can buy really nice shoes. It'd likely be important if you were taking many pictures or going to a meet. If you just mean every day practicality, they look fine for lighter colored outfits. Not everyone wants to wear elaborate footwear to class and the store.
>>9556706
Thank you, I'll get some shirts, do you think whiteXlavender striped socks that are the same length as these would work?
>>9556720
I'd go with over-the-knee length at the very least, but thigh high is preferable. You could use white and lavender to bring out the palette in the necklace. CC may do lucky packs again at the end of the year so it may be worthwhile to save. Listen Flavor has 3-4 brands that fit with the style such as RaRa CirCo, Yummy!, and, of course, the collaboration items. You can take advantage of both LF's free shipping over a certain amount, and you can save on consolidation and shipping. I don't know if LF's Rakuten store has as large a selection as their actual web store.
>>9556726
Thank you!
>>9556726
Also when it comes to thigh highs I have some but they're hot pink, does this style work
>>9556749
...that's just normie socks...
>>9556757
I just figured since thigh highs like these worked in a lot of alt fashions, and the Anon I was replying to said plain colors would be fine, I'll scrap that idea though
>>9556678
nayrt but you must be legitimately retarded
More LF fall/winter sneakpeak with the obvious halloween theme.
>>9556410
if those are supposed to be syringes, they look like condoms..
>>9556888
New cuts too with poofy sleeves for the sweaters.
>>9556898
I'm the Anon you replied to, and yeah they kinda do but it works cause the scissors look like dicks
>>9556899
Oh these look comfy
>>9556410
Throw them both out. Sorry, but this doesn't work at all
Does anyone have examples of males wearing darker colors without the goth boots?
It's unrealistic for me to be able to wear a pair of them everywhere and I'd like to weigh my options for footwear.
Any suggestions are welcome.
>>9558696
Dark trainers or converse could work
>>9556817
Her shoulders are much wider in proportion to her body than the average female so I doubt anon is "literally retarded."
Probably intentionally being an asshole though.
>>9556749
>>9556772
I didn't mean to confuse you. I was trying to give advice to build a wardrobe. Let's say you buy a shirt from Atelier M.U.'s ttrinity in hot pink. (I realize the hot pink option looks like red in the picture. Let's say it really is hot pink like it claims.) Okay, so you got an loose-fitting shirt with an appropriate print in hot pink. It has white in the design. Yes, those socks would match. I assume you are building your wardrobe. I was offering a suggestion that would make it easier to build your wardrobe. Printed stockings + a printed top are ideal as many pictures would suggest, but plain stocking + printed top and printed stockings + a plain top do occasionally make appearances. It can certainly work, and make it easier to build your closet. As far as the outfit you posted. It's cute, obviously you are influenced by the fashion. It doesn't mean you can make that outfit photo-worthy without the rest. You are on the right track, but it's very important you build your wardrobe with the appropriate items. I really hope that makes more sense.
>>9559096
It does, thank you
Pouchette poster back again! I recognize that this has flaws, but I thought you guys would enjoy my next prototype.
I'm going to move the zipper all the way over to the right and try to do it with two fabrics instead of monotone next time.. I'm just out of white cotton. These would be very cheap, but the downside is that I would not include the strap so you have to have one already or find one you like (also not the keychain but that should be pretty obvious).
Just ordered this hoodie, which thigh highs do you think would work best?
>>9559513
Oh also, scope pilllchans badass handiwork. Thanks for taking the order; I'm going to wear them constantly!
>>9559515
I feel like I should know this but where is this from? ToAlice?
>>9559519
I found it on a reseller site called "kogiketsu". I think the design it was on Listen Flavor a while back, but now I can't find it and I could easily be mistaken.
>>9559519
Listen Flavor
Does anyone know where to get the hoodie in pic related? I'm not seeing it on LF's site nor Dreamy Bows
>>9559527
Was from last winter's collab, long sold out
>>9559521
You just got yourself a replica.
>>9556899
And some thick harness print jacket.
>>9559599
I know, just dipping a toe into the fashion and not ready to spend a ton on something I'm not sure I want to make a wardrobe with. Nice dubs!
>>9559601
Dropped my pic.
>>9559602
Either way, I think there is lots of monochrome lower wear would work due to the pentagram motif, maybe even something like pic related (if you don't like busy prints) as the upper half will be mostly covered anyways.
>>9559611
Oh, those are cute, thanks!
They are pretty late on it but LF just hopped on the passed Pastel Goth flower+studs fad.
r8 my fit
>>9560348
Clean your room you savage
>>9560348
You look like a halloween store reject in those tights.
>>9544323
And the 4th and last collab for this month.
>>9559513
I love it anon!!
>>9559602
And once again we're another step closer to listen flavor pulling out of the international market.
You're not owed a cheap hoodie because you're only "dipping in" just buy from somewhere else?
>>9560348
you look cheap
I don't know if this has been mentioned but Motivational Tattoos, which offered temporary tats and pins in the shape of bandages, and had a mental health/positivity theme, is closing for the summer and possibly for good. shame when western-based menhera aesthetic shops close, I literally just got my order from her today
>>9561246
chill, one poorly educated anon buying a replica won't mean all that much
if you want to blame anyone blame china
>>9561371
> is closing for the summer and possibly for good
Idk where you got this from but the owner is simply on vacation with her kids.
>>9561371
They weren't poorly educated. They knew it was fake. They bought it because they didn't feel like shelling out the cash for brand. That's largely why they got a shitty response.
>>9559515
Going on that note, I'm not going to bark at you, but please don't buy fakes. There's plenty of cheaper brands befitting of the style on Taobao that won't break the bank, but at the same time are not replicas. Otherwise, striped stockings work, or even those stockings with the corset back. You can replace the ribbon with white since most are black or red ribbon. From now on, you should check out Taobao brands such as Dear Alice, Crazygirl, or Seventy-Three. Seventy Three pops up on Ebay from time to time. You can dip your feet in the fashion cheap without supporting unsavory business practice.
>>9561556
this sure doesn't sound like 'vacation with kids' but alright
Shameless selfpost,would be neat to see other anons coords too!
Also question- how do you guys feel about chest harnesses in menhera?
>>9561804
It's not like if she didn't says so on her Tumblr and Etsy and don't forget her last campaign was to get her stuff into the big-name retail stores which got quite the huge response so of course the manufacturing may be done by someone else.
>>9562062
>Also question- how do you guys feel about chest harnesses in menhera?
Depends on the design, tight ones obviously look wierd with the oversize clothes and many designs cover too much of the prints.
>>9561736
Is it okay to buy replicas if the store that sells the original has stopped producing it?
>>9562277
No. A large part of listen flavors and other smaller brands sales is from, the limited aspect of their items.
>>9559527
I don't know how badly you want this particular style, but the Australian seller Mighty Ape has a single one left in stock. Shipping could be very pricey though.
>https://www.mightyape.com.au/product/listen-flavour-sweet-cherry-menhera-chan-parka-black/26596468
>>9562277
It's the business you are supporting that is the issue. If no one bought fakes then manufacturers wouldn't have a reason to make them. The more they sell, the more it encourages theft. I believe Listen Flavor has recently had issues with replicas being created before the official products even hit the shelves. It's a bummer to miss out on a good design, but it's not good to support art theft.
>>9562277
Just look on the auction sites and second hand market, there's a chance it could pop up there. I've seen way old LF designs on ebay before.
