Not to be a total bitch, but you don't really have that much to show off and what you do have isn't impressive either.

>>9585936
Everyone has different tastes anon, at least she doesn't have any terribad prints in her closet from what I can tell, why don't you show off your wardrobe to see if you have anything better?

>mfw 20 brand dresses isn't considered 'much', meanwhile I'm sitting here with my measly 4.

Feels bad...

Brand is Brand, any girl that has a lot of it no matter the rarity is worth being jelly over; unless her wardrobe was full of 'WTF Burando dresses' or something.

Rather see a closet full of common/non-rare brand rather than a closet of Bodyline and Taobao shit.

No pleasing cgl, 150+ pieces like mine are a clusterfuck, a decent wardrobe of well loved favorites like this isn't impressive enough :/ do you just want a wardrobe built on a fucking theme in all the same colourway now or what? Is that the only thing Lolita enough for summerfags?

I've only been into lolita for maybe half a year? So most of my stuff is pretty new. The Heavenly Cross skirt was my first purchase.

Sorry that one of the photos is low quality. Its a really nice AP floral OP in ivory, and I cant for the life of me find out what the print or collection is called (I found it on the sales rack of my local AP and forgot to ask)

>>9585934
Is the style OP is trying to go for here 'Sweet, but with a fun, whimsical side to it?'

>>9585990
Sauce on the dress to the left of the AATP gold skirt?

>>9585986
Baby I think, I spotted their logo several times.

>>9585990
Anon, I'm trying to help you find the name of the floral AP OP, but no luck so far.
Could you see if the tag has a product number in the tag? Should look like "142O7-3655" or something.
Also, when did you buy it exactly? If we know when it was on the sales rack we might be able to pin-point the year of the release.

Top left is Angelic Pretty Heavenly Cross skirt in Lavender and the AATP skirt is Opal Church Choir skirt in ivory and gold.

>>9586017
Anon you're a blessing and a saint. The tag is 172004-030127 I bought it maybe a week ago but its been on the rack for at least a month. My best guess is it was an early 2017 release or maybe a late 2016?

>>9586024
Ah no Anon, I meant the dress right to the left of AATP Opal Church Choir, the cream colored dress with the little animals on it?

OH WAIT SORRY i totally misread, I thought you were looking for sauce on top left skirt and the AATP skirt. That dress is Pomme rouge ~ rabbit and squirrel apple of forest. It's a pretty new release I think! I've seen it on display in the store for a couple weeks. I have the ivory one. It looked really great in all colors though.

Honestly they're really nice. I think I paid $6 for them during a sale, but I was very pleasantly surprised. I sort of dipped my toes into ouji on a whim, but I ended up really liking it thanks to those pants. The cutsew is from a taobao brand called Dolly + Delly, i'd find a link but I hate mobile taobao.

Let me guess you're an enormous landwhale who has no other choice take advantage of the custom sizing Taobao offers cause you're too huge to fit even the biggest of fully shirred brand?

Well at least you're going the through the decent, honest route instead of resorting to replicas like most fatties of your size tend to do.

>>9586193
Not yet, it's still in the mail. But when I get it I'll be sure to take pics.

>>9586196
Lol thats funny. Considering I have unshirred brand too. I just like certain print imagery over brand allegiance. and I like taobao because actually brand is sometimes too big on me. nice try tho.

Nah, just cycled through like 6 pieces i didn't like and got rid of them. Considering selling holy lantern too bc it didnt have the impact i thought it would.

Taobao also ends up fitting be better 9/10 times

>inb4 landwwhale

I'm actually just really small and the Chinese small is smaller than brand sizes. I have no tiddies so my brand dresses always end up gaping really badly in the chest (which bothers me, which is why I then sell them). Ive gone through 2 AP, 2 Baby, and an IW dress so far with no luck on a good fit.

>>9586183
>>9586175 here, can I ask what makes it come off as particularly newbieish? Just the typical basic bitch starter pieces I never got rid of (Those few BL skirts everyone and their dog has and the infanta piece especially), or the obnoxious love of polkadots?

Been in the fashion for about 4 years now and trying to slowly make my wardrobe more versatile and generally suck ass less...

>>9586191

>>9586167
Where are the pointy lace up shoes from?

>>9586205
It just seemed noobish based on the fact that its mostly skirts with not a lot of main pieces and for the few pieces there are its mostly Taobao and Bodyline rather than Brand?

That's why I figured you were a starterlita

Basically moreso the majority of it being starter pieces and lack of abundance overall

Also you've been in the fashion 4 years already and that's all you've got to show for it? Extreme poorfag I'm guessing? Lacemarket, Wunderwelt and Closet Child are your friends try searching more on there if you find you can only do Lolita on a budget, it just might surprise you!

I'd ask where'd you manage to find sixteen whole BL dresses that are of decent quality? I can only name like 8 Bodyline dresses I wouldn't mind in my closet, maximum 10 if I'm feeling particularly generous.

Why have skirts become so unpopular recently? And I'm not singling you out anon, it seems like a general trend where I see fewer skirt coords as well as fewer skirts being released by brands. They're very versatile and I often prefer them for fit. There is a price difference from dresses so I guess that's why they're associated with newbies? But they are still considered a main piece as far as I know.

I've been collecting for a little under 3 years now, but I'm pretty happy with what I've managed to get together. My tastes are all over the place, though.

>>9586212
Ah fair enough that's pretty reasonable, I just have a weakness for skirts honestly (and being stupidly short, short-torso'd and small, I generally only get jsks if they have corset lacing and a high enough waistline).

And yeah you hit the nail on the head, dirt poor uni student. Only have this much to show for myself since I usually sell an old piece whenever buying a new one, both for space, money and general wardrobe improvement. If you take a look though I've actually finally(!) got more various brand in there than I do Taobao/Bodyline stuff (well and then that one random axes femme + handmade floral skirt tossed in for casual wear but hey who's counting), and considering selling a couple more soon to replace with some nice brand items. Been having some pretty great luck through YJA/Mbok/Fril recently too so who knows, maybe it'll improve even quicker than I hope!

>>9586228
idk, I adore skirts. I wish brands made more (and not just mini skirts--which are great but not lolita)

>skirts for n00bs
I actually feel like its the opposite where skirts are harder to coord and less versitile, so newbies avoid them.

This. At least in my experience, admitting to posting in a draw thread, taobao thread, sales thread and stuff like this doesnt immediately equate to being guilty of gossiping in the ita and comm threads anymore the way it used to, I think most people have realised cgl in general is a pretty handy resource regardless of drama levels

I have the barette/hairbow that came with it as well, only issue is the charm fell off of the bow before I even got it in the mail, and it's subsequently missing, so if you want it I'll just throw it in there for free. If you wanna shoot me an offer I'll leave my dump email.

Kinda sucks, it was babby's first dream dress, it's what drew me to the fashion, and i've been clinging to it, but ... seems like it wasn't meant to be.

I feel like my wardrobe is pretty rounded, but I need more solids. There's one or two pieces that are missing, but they're handmade and another is an old Meta piece I just purchased that is not on lolibrary. I'm trying to stay under 20 pieces until I wear the fashion more regularly.

>>9586339
Superb advice. We have a lolita mentor here.

>>9586454
Well, she was complaining. Her wardrobe is very mismatched, colorwise. It's small enough that it's not a huge task to start over by picking which ones she likes the best and pruning the rest.

I think it's decent advice versus keeping them all and buying more.

My original goal for this year was to reach 20 main pieces before the end of 2017, but at this point I'm probably going to surpass that. It's not a whole lot compared to some wardrobes, but I'm pretty proud of myself for accumulating 16 main pieces in the span of 7-8 months.

>>9586499
It's nothing special to accumulate 20 dresses in a year, it's only a matter of money. The really hard thing is to have a cohesive wardrobe and to collect the dresses/prints youz really want (instead of just the next best dress you see). Also, I think many newbie lolitas concentrate too much on main-pieces. Proper shoes, bags, blouses, headwear and jewelry take a lot more time and a good amount of many as well.

As far as your wardrobe goes, you did quite a good job. You have a nice sweet wardrobe, though I'm questioning th first dress. Thhat collab dress doesn't even look like it would fit a petti.

>>9586506
Oh yeah agreed! I just find it impressive for myself, I've seen many other people accumulate main pieces far faster than I have. I've managed to collect a decent amount of shoes, bags, blouses, and accessories, though I do still feel that I'm still lacking some filler pieces so I'm trying to focus on buying more of those things to help diversify my wardrobe further.

As far as the dreamy luna OP goes it fits two small pettis well, but it's definitely better for casual wear.

Some of the colorways and/or cuts of the pre-2008 pieces are wrong, I tried my best though with the wayback machine and non stock images. Basically a sweet/classic clusterfuck. I'm mainly looking forward to getting darker colors so there's more of a balance.

>>9586337
I suggest making a wishlist album and regularly updating it. Determine which pieces you want most. Stick to it, but if you don't really want a low priority dress anymore, take it out of your album and don't feel like you need to get it just because it was there before. I'm also two years in the fashion, but I'm at 14 main pieces that I really like. I'm not into more than one style, only sweet.

>>9586826
It's a biased sample, larger wardrobes take more effort to make a collage of so those people are less likely to bother posting. Like another anon said, they're also likely to have posted to EGL and got comments there so there's less incentive to post for comments here.

For me personally I've enjoyed watching this thread but couldn't be bothered posting my own, especially since I have a lot of older pieces it's hard to find stock photos for. I'm not a "150-piece clusterfuck" by any means but I have over 60 main pieces.

>>9586826

Beginner, including my only pair of shoes and bag.

Quite incohesive since I went to Japan recently and prioitized main pieces (and that btssb bag that i have loved for a really long time and was still in store - really bad starters choice, I know). Makes for 2 average IW coords though.

>>9586888
why would i do that? my wardrobe is easily recognizable as me and then people would know i'm secretly rude with high standards. seems like a dumb move, fellow gull. but it's around 75 pieces ranging from OTT sweet to toned down sweet to classic with a few highly sought after pieces sprinkled in.

>>9586846
i wrote a blogpost detailing it for you but then i realized you probably don't really care. bigger than mine with reasonable variety, yet still has cohesive capsules within.

It would take longer than I care to spend, my annual wardrobe post takes me several days. Plus I own a bunch of things that i can't find on lolibrary so I can't use stock photos. Also, just like you said I have very few expensive dream dress tier dresses, a lot of my rare dresses are older pieces and many of my dresses are just very popular pieces like sugary carnival, sweet cream house, cosmic, etc. I don't think anyone would really want to have my wardrobe for what I paid for it, they would probably just buy all the meme tier dream dresses like iron gate, puppet circus, marionette in my closet room, etc.

I feel like I had a more cohesive wardrobe before, and now it's deteriorated to a huge mix of things
These are the dresses that I currently have which aren't for sale

I love each individual piece I own, but when I look at it all together it feels very cluttered. Not sure if there's a solution other than abandoning some pieces which don't fit the "general aesthetic"

My wardorb is sad

But it isn't. I've seen so many girls start out in lolita with a well-paying job/boyfriend/parents and they just buy like 4 dresses a month and suddelny have a huge wardrobe in a couple of months. But it's all so random, nothing fits, there is no theme, they don't really like their dresses and barely wear them, but still keep them just so they can say they have x number of dresses already. Nevermind fitting staple pieces, if any at all.

Is this anything to be proud of or something others should admire?

I've seen some small wardrobe around 20 dresses, but it's hard to get pieces, everything fits nicely and they have some really awesome bags or cardigans as well. I prefer that anytime of the day. These wardrobes show dedication, time and a sense of style instead of just money.

My wardrobe is wildly different from what I thought it'd be when I started.

The bottom four dresses I'm planning on selling one day when I'm less lazy, almost left them out. The floral BTSSB one is much too large on my bust, and the other three just don't fit my wardrobe at all (Meta's DDG was a back-and-forth of "This isn't my style at all" and "But what if I don't regret getting it NOW and it goes up in price?")

>>9587191
That BTSSB dress is really cute anon and I'm a bit busty. What were you thinking of selling it for?

>>9587175
>they just buy like 4 dresses a month and suddelny have a huge wardrobe in a couple of months.
So... in two months... they buy 8 dresses.
Did you do the math when you said this or?

>it's all so random, nothing fits, there is no theme, they don't really like their dresses and barely wear them, but still keep them just so they can say they have x number of dresses already
You're starting to sound like you're describing someone specific.

My wardrobe is pretty random but only because I buy prints and cuts I like instead of looking for a fucking theme which isn't required.... My shit matches and I like the way I look in it. I'm sure this goes for other people who have "random" wardrobes.

Even most gulls buy stuff they like instead of trying to adhere to a theme or only buying certain things. And if they do, it'll be because they like the theme or only specific cuts.

>hard to get pieces, everything fits nicely and they have some really awesome bags or cardigans as well. I prefer that anytime of the day.

I'm with this. Theme's are great and make things easy to coord I guess- but I like variety in my wardrobe. Sometimes I want to wear something pastel and sweet and other times toned and classic in dark colors. 'themed' wardrobes arent for everyone.

>>9587198
>So... in two months... they buy 8 dresses.
>Did you do the math when you said this or?

For someone only two months in the fashion 8 dresses is pretty huge. Some struggle to have 8 dresses in 2 years.

>You're starting to sound like you're describing someone specific.

I have a few specific persons in mind, yes, but these were just prominent examples. They were people who would have an almost interchangable 'wardrobe' and 'sales' album.
And you already said your shit matches. That's what I'm talking about when I saw a theme. I'm not talking about a 'cat'-themed wardrobe or 'food'-themed, but just barely cohesive. The wardrobes I have in mind would have so many different dresses that don't match each other, the person would have to buy seperate shoes, blouses, socks and bows for every single dress. And most of the time they don't have anything to wear it with.

>>9587237
>For someone only two months in the fashion 8 dresses is pretty huge. Some struggle to have 8 dresses in 2 years.
If you're the original anon that said it wasn't special for someone to have 20 dresses, then you just contradicted yourself.

The fact that some struggle to get 8 in a year mean 20 is a pretty big get.

Also themes and matching things aren't the same. Being cohesive doesn't necessarily designate a theme of some kind.

The dresses don't need to match each other.. the blouses, shoes, socks, head wear and accessories do.
Again, as someone with a pretty random wardrobe, my shit still matches. And yeah, that means I have to pretty much buy a full coord every time. But that's just how I like doing things.
Not only that but when I first started building my wardrobe, I would just wait to accumulate more and now even though my dresses don't fit together at all - I can interchange blouses and shoes and socks without it looking terrible because I've collected so much.

Look. I get what you're saying but I also feel like you're doing a piss poor job of explaining what you actually mean here and that you're slightly biased in what you're saying because you're definitely applying to some people you know.

>>9587193
I haven't really thought about it. $65 + shipping from the US? If you want to look up the measurements, it's BTSSB's Rococo Floria. I can't ship until after August 16th because I'm out of town, but here's my email if you're interested.

Some stuff in this thread got me thinking.
You guys rarely post photos of your actual wardrobe. One anon did in this thread which was nice but anyone can compile stock photos of dresses they like and claim they own them.

>>9587263
I recognise a fair few number of people from their posts in this thread. How attention starved would one have to be to be to do something so superficial

>>9587263
Taking photos of your wardrobe takes an eternity. That's why once-a-year wardrobe posts in January is the norm.

If someone is at such a low point that they derive pleasure from posting a fake lolita wardrobe on an anonymous site, then let them have that.

>>9587263
Do you know how much time that would take?? To get what? 4chan recognition? You can either believe it or don't, it's your decision. It's not like anyone in here compiled a wardrobe of only rare dresses.

>>9586228
Skirts are hard for most ppl to wear. Their max waist is smaller than the jsk/op counterpart, and even with shirring you are better off if you aren't chubby. Flaw of shirring is that it can make your chub more prominent. The other issue is needing a real blouse that fits you. Most ppl I know where blouses that don't fit because they are hidden, but with a skirt you can't do that. Personally I would like more structured tips to pair with skirts.

>>9587263
It's incredibly exhausting to take pics of your own stuff. Try it out one day, if you have 5 dresses it's reasonable but at 50 it's a weekends work.

thanks for the tip anon! i love both gothic and sweet equally so that's why my wardrobe is like this, but i realized too late that i should have sticked to one style and afterwards delve into the other. not sure if i'll sell anything like the other anon suggested, but i am in the hunt for pieces that i really like to add into my wardrobe. i have an album like you suggested on my phone that has all the dresses i would like, and yes, it has been updated many times, my style has changed throughout the years (i went from loving space, pastel goth-esque and halloween motifs to appreciating more elegant gothic prints, OTT pastel sweet stuff and both old school sweet and gothic).

i also really should invest in more blouses, legwear and bags

Sorry for the really low-res photo; was having trouble with collage making.

I was hesitant to post, but seeing everything laid out like this is really good for helping me decide what doesn’t really fit in and I should let go. I’m almost to the point where I’m happy with everything I have, but not everything is being used and that’s part of how I let stuff go. Any advice on wardrobe improvement is welcome. There's a couple more Taobao pieces I have that I left out, since they're not in my possession yet, or with my SS yet.

>>9587029
>No wonder your wardrobe posts take forever.
...have you ever been on EGL? Stock photo wardrobes aren't allowed, wardrobe post season means manually photographing everything you own and maybe just throwing in just a few stock pics for things in the mail. Some people re-use some photos from the previous year if their wardrobe hasn't changed much but most don't.

NTAYRT but I don't have a wardrobe album since there aren't stock photos of all my items. I refer back to my January wardrobe post when I need to and I have a folder on my desktop with seller pics of stuff I've bought since then. I used to use lolibrary's wardrobe feature for old burando pieces, but that's borked now.

I think my wardrobe is ok consistency wise, but I have a lot of work to do to fix it and fill in the gaps. When I see a piece that pops up I often think if it'll work with both sides of my wardrobe. Because of this, I'm looking to get more skirts to work with my boystyle jackets. Yellow dots are things I will probably put up for sale.

I do want lighter pieces though, for both lolita and boystyle. Happy to have purchased two white boz pieces.

>>9587095
Apart from a few pieces on the bottom row, this all looks extremely cohesive to me! As long as you can coord them I don't see a need to abandon oddball pieces, unless there are space issues. Make a list of what accessory/basic pieces are missing if you have to.

I think my heart's stopped at some of your mm dresses anon
>Those Cordelia ops
>the madeleine chiffon op
>velveteen morgana
I'm just going to be quietly envious in the corner. Good on you, fellow mm whore.

Behold, solids. Obviously not pictured boleros,blouses, accessories, etc. Figured skirts were interesting enough to show.

>>9587276
>That's why once-a-year wardrobe posts in January is the norm.
That doesn't happen here, though.

>>9587266
it's superficial to post your actual wardrobe, but it's not to post stock photos?

>>9587277
Do you believe people on here? Like are gulls never skeptical? Is that why you guys take bait so easily??

>>9587296
I'm gonna take a picture of my closet. Like the other anon did.. I didn't say take an amazing photo of each of your dresses.


I knew everyone was gonna throw a shitfit over this. You guys are all so picky and compulsive. Especially those of you who automatically assumed you'd have to take a getty images level photo of each of your dresses. Fucking swear...

You know on the auto board people post proof pics of their cars?

it's not about recognition. It's about showing off your hobby which is what we do here, no?

Oh that's right. You all live to tear each other down. Fuck the hobby right?

>>9587466
>...have you ever been on EGL
Yes anon I know. I have albums for both because LJ layout and sizing is shit. I was more referring to how do you label everything if you don't have an album for your dresses. You'd either have to look up every dress or leave them unlabeled. Neither of which sounds like a good idea.

>>9587533
>You know on the auto board people post proof pics of their cars?
Most people only have 1-2 cars. I really don't see the issue with stock photos, I can still get a sense of the person's style. Who cares if it's true or not, it's not like I'd ever meet them anyway. Why can't you just let people admire other people's clothes and taste anon?

>>9587535
>You'd either have to look up every dress or leave them unlabeled
Some of us just memorise the names of our dresses, anon.

Granted I'm a literal autist so that might be part of it, but at 60 dresses I've never had a problem remembering the names, especially since most of them will be in last year's post anyway (for the first post I ever made I did have to manually look everything up). I also have a Word document with links to lolibrary for a few older solids with really generic names I might otherwise forget, and it's not too much of a burden to go back and check receipts for a few pieces each year. A stock photo album just has pictures not the name anyway - you might as well just have a document with a list.

>>9586130
YOU

You sniped Meta's High Waist Shirring Tiered off Wunderwelt before I could and I'm still mad. If it doesn't fit or flatter when it arrives I'd definitely be interested.

I love that shirred AP JSK on the fourth row too, nice taste.

>>9587540
You know you can add descriptions to album images right? And it's more for the blouses, accessories, or socks that don't match a print. I agree dress names are easy to remember, but it makes posting your wardrobe easier when you can copy paste.

>>9587533
I would literally not be able to fit my wardrobe into one picture, or even five. Also, I wouldn't feel comfortable to post a picture if my apartment on cgl. I know people selfpost in draw threads and room threads, but I'm not one of them.

>>9587549
I mean, even with the names I'd be copy-pasting those items into lolibrary to check other details like release year first, so I prefer to operate using either lolibrary's actual wardrobe feature of a document with links to lolibrary, wayback machine, old shop blog posts etc. To each their own and it depends how you organize your wardrobe post and how much information you typically put in it, but for the way I put things together it wouldn't be any easier considering the number of items I have with no stock photos, although I can see why others like doing it (if my wardrobe was mostly recent AP I definitely would).

>>9587465
Ohh that Btssb Nun OP is everything! I would love to find it too someday!

>>9587553
I also place links to lolibrary in the description and include the release year. I don't want to rely on lolibrary if they fail (considering they have in wardrobe functionality). But I also have items with no stock photo and I put those in the album too with description and links to blogs with reference information. You can do what you want, but all of it is possible with an album of images.

>>9587545
Kek. Glad I nabbed it when I did then, but that sucks.

I'll post in B/S/T if it doesn't work and hold it for you. If I end up keeping it I'll keep an eye out for ya as well.

>>9587484

>>9587594
Have you ever used that Dream Sky skirt in a fairy kei coordinate? It seems like a great crossover piece.

>>9587596
All the pieces in that picture are real items AFAIK, you should easily be able to find those exact Baby hair combs and that book bag.

>>9587611
Lovely, and I think it's quite cohesive! That bordeaux pintucked piece on the first row is especially nice.

>>9587465
Damn anon, nice Meta finds. Your wardrobe reminds me of a really cool quirky friend I had in my last comm. What stands out to me as not 'fitting in' are the AATP skirt in the first row, the second row third from the right skirt, and the IW JSK fifth row second from the right.

Duh, I could say something about this, I suppose. Lots of indie, goth leanings. I love black with sweet prints and Squirrel Party was just a must-have because I love squirrels. Right now because I'm a fatty chan I wear solid black from Gloomth and hope I don't look too gross. So these dresses are for when I finally get motivated to get in shape.

If it's not too rude to ask, do you have worn photos of BtSSB's Velveteen Ginger Man OP? I've seen it come up a few times in the black and blackxwhite colourways and always hesitated because I've just got no idea how that weird low-waist cut would look on an actual body.

It's fantastic! A couple of them have popped up this year and the cut is so flattering and comfortable. Mine is sort of falling apart since it's so old, but I'm doing my best to restore it and am re-enforcing all the seams.

>>9587635
Thank you! I actually have the AATP skirt up for sale right now and you're right, the other two definitely don't fit in. I have Miracle Candy because it's a total nostalgia piece for me and Casablanca was one of those odd ones that I fell in love with the print, but unlike a lot of other things that would stand out I actually have a nice coord with it. I can't see myself keeping both forever, but they're nice for now and are getting some use.

>>9587758
Here you go, anon! I really hope you find it, the Airlines series is so fun and everyone always seems to love whatever coords I do with them. I'm missing the brooch and hats, though, which I've never been able to catch one for sale. I tried to keep the colors as true as possible in the photo, but it's even brighter IRL, like hurt-your-eyes orange. SO tacky and so good.

Oh Anon thank you so much! This really gives me hope in finding it myself! Hearing that is even brighter irl is so good too because I love tacky meta with a passion!

Sorry for going off topic, but do you have any trouble with the buttons? Because I own the JSK in navy and the buttons fall off very easily, even when reinforced.

Also we have almost the same carpet and have been waiting to get hardwood in the future so no judging at all.

>>9586826
I have about 50+ main pieces and im too lazy to track down photos ofall of them for a collage

>>9587984
It's nothing to do with the exif or gps data, do you even go here? Like anons have said upthread, it's because lolita is a small community and gulls' rooms are recognisable.

>>9587994
I haven't had any trouble with this release, no, but I have the D. Walkure blouses and had to sew all the buttons down before I would wear them out. They were falling off like crazy and are basically the same buttons, but for this JSK I haven't had an issue. Some of the Hospitality Doll buttons have done that, too, but that may also be because they're old.

I got tired halfway and left out the taobao and other indie brands (Lief).

For taobao I buy mostly from dear celine and lulu garden, it's great value if you need something to get dirty in but don't want to buy bodyline.

I also left out some btssb/aatp items because I can't remember the name of it. One is like some kind of music print and the other has unicorns in it

>>9587472
I can coord everything, but there are definitely space issues, which is why I'm thinking of cutting back down to perhaps an even more cohesive / capsule wardrobe. That would really entail me selling a lot of blouses, socks and other accessories which I'm not looking forward to sorting out and is the reason why I haven't done much to cut down yet

Kinda unrelated, but how do you guys sort the blouses and other accessories that you want to sell?
It's easy to sell main pieces, but for the other stuff I always feel like I might use it again / more in the future, which is my downfall to clutter


>>9587474
Thanks anon! Stained glass pieces are a lot cheaper these days, so if you still like them, go for it!

>>9588142
I love your wardrobe, the pastels are really lovely and so cohesive
Also, great taste in the JM Old Library pieces, I'd like to see the coat OP worn one day!

>>9588149

thanks! I tried jewel tones for a while, but opening my closet and seeing a rainbow of pastels makes me really happy the way darker tones don't. The nice thing is that most of my pastels are either very subtle prints or solids, so it makes wearing much easier

I wear the old library coat all the time, it looks great with skinny jeans or a statement piece. I have more pieces in suitcases for winter, but this is how my closet looks like now in summer

I'm really envious of your stained glass and wa-lolita items, it's really very cute!

>>9588004
cute room! I have the same issue, anon. I started in 2009 too, and only ever stuck around 20 mainpieces the last few years

>>9587781
if you're carefull, it shouldn't fuck up too much. the best thing to do it to remove the stitching on both the bottom and top of the bodice in the places where the boning is, and open up the top too.

I first tried to remove the whole boning piece, but I figured it was way way easier to just remove the plastic strings within the casing with tweezers. you have to pull quite a bit, depending on how your boning pieces are sewn.

I still don't understand why brands don't use boning caps

Wardrobe conversation always made me wonder, since ye olde egl days. Why does one need over 30 main pieces to have an "ok sized wardrobe"? Were you like that with normie clothes as well? Do you have a walk in closet for all that?

I have a collection of ~25 different normie skirts and most people I know consider that way too much already, and they occupy considerably less space than lolita skirts would.
I'm building up now that I finally have a job and five main pieces already feel "sizeable" in terms of wearableness, but not nearly enough for me to stop buying another piece every month.
I don't get it. Is it because lolita has a collecting side to it?

>>9588008
Oh, it is... I didn't zoom in enough kek

>>9588004
You say it's small but it looks considerable to me. I think if you have like 200 dresses or skirts you're probably going to have a preference for wearing some of them and naturally only circulate through those, leaving lots unworn.

>>9588159
Probably collecting/hoarding mentality. Which is valid in its own right

>>9587759
What brand is the vest and the little belt/waspie thing in the left of the third row? Cute wardrobe.

>>9588001
I didn't say post your entire room? Do you not know how to center a photo? Would it really be that hard to get your dresses all together and take a single photo? Even if you have 50 of them, just grab a few and post.

If you're just "disappointed", fair enough. But don't expect everyone to have a big wardrobe. Also some of us have jobs/things to do and cannot wear it as much as we would like, thus don't have as much.
Also some of us including me are just too lazy to post a collage. It's too much hassle.

As much as I like big and impressive wardrobes I also enjoy small wardrobes. The more cohesive the better. I remember a 12 pieces wardrobe back in the EGL days I absolutely adored.

No I'm sorry, I don't but I found japanese lolitas wearing it in the Gothic&Lolita Book and Kera Maniax: http://imgur.com/a/jszPa (I also added some pictures of the Baby OP in case you're interested)
It does look a bit weird on me personally, but it's a really adorable dress. Just a warning: If you're tall, it's going to be quite short on you. It's nothing an underskirt or a petticoat with matching lace couldn't fix, but still.

Anon I hope this doesn't come off as rude in any way, but if you are ever willing to let go of your twinkle mermaid jsk in black I would be very interested. It has been my dream dress since 2005.

Most normies have way over 30 "main pieces", that's why Project 333 is a thing and was considered challenging and minimalist to get your wardrobe down to that size. I downsized when I went to university but when I was in HS I basically lived in jeans, T-shirts and hoodies but when I counted my clothes I realised I had over 80 items.

It does look weird to normies to have like 30 dresses specifically though. I wear toned-down vintage-y classic which your typical person might mistake for normie vintage while it's hanging on a rail, and every friend or builder/contractor coming to do a repair that comes into my apartment comments on how many dresses I have and is shocked. Most of my dresses are hidden away in a wardrobe too so they're only seeing the 10-15 pieces that I have out.

I think it is partly the collecting side and also that lolita isn't really worn to be practical, it's worn to embody a certain aesthetic. if someone only likes one specific style and colour palette they might be satisfied with a few pieces but if someone likes a lot of different looks there's definitely a temptation with lolita to want to have the ability to wear all of them in your closet.

I'm glad someone got that blackxwhite tiered skirt, it's super cute and I was considering it myself!

>Don't be, old Maxicimam may be beautiful but not too rare.
You think? There's never more than a handful of Maxicimam pieces on auctions at any given time and a lot of second-hand sites don't have a dedicated tag for it so it's hard to sift through all the Axes Femme etc in the "other" section to find it. I've been a fan of old Maxicimam for a couple of years and only seen a handful of their blackxwhite OPs, and not the ones I love most.

Thanks so much for linking me the pics though! I think I might bite the bullet and get Velveteen Ginger Man when I can, I can't believe I forgot about that coord of it in pink but I'd not seen the blackxwhite coord before. About the other OP, I didn't actually mean the BtSSB cross lace OP, which I'm already familiar with from oldschool threads. I meant the second OP from the left on the fourth row, the one with corset lacing in the front and a long A-line cut that looks old.

Those are some awesome Moitie pieces and I like your raschel Meta OP too.

Sorry anon! I just got it a little over a year ago! I was spamming the DD thread like crazy until i found it. Ill definately post there if i ever see it pop up again (assuming your the one who posted looking for it) I remember when it came out in 2006 and i was just a poorfag high schooler with no brand international shipping, so it was definately my most exciting purchase out of all of them!

Thanks anon! I've been loving Moitie lately for dinner date/family night coordinates! I also wish i had more of an occasion to rock the lace monster trumpet sleeves haha but maybe ill just say fuck it once it starts to cool down and wear it around campus anyways.

That's understandable! It's a beautiful dress. I hope I can be as lucky as you to own it.
