Tiktok and danganrompa destroyed cosplay
What the fuck is this clusterfuck style of "cosplay" called? I dont use tiktok and have been out of the cosplay loop for a while. I want to see this monstrocity in motion.
>>10610081People have been calling it the "overaccessorized" trend which is a gentle term if you ask me.
>>10610081Some people call it "decora inspired", some call it "overaccessorized", some people call it glitch-core, i like to call it claire's dumpster-kei.
>>10610074I wouldn't say bullying or being posted here is really normal.Criticism is normal, but we're a special kind of asshole here.
>>10610369This is normal

so i just received a print with a single layer of foam board as backing...and it was perfect. do you guys ship with double board (if shipping flat?) i ship with double board because i get anxious about protection (and will probably continue to do so) but wondering what the mishap rate is for prints that are sent with just one backing board...(i use cardboard instead of foam)
>>10608963I ship paper goods in double chipboard because doubling up makes it slightly harder to bend the envelope. If I’m shipping something more valuable like a lolita print or a kpop photocard, I also put it in a plastic sleeve that’s hard to bend before putting it between chipboard.
I didn't want to make a thread for this but did anyone go yesterday / are currently here today? I went last Saturday and there were like five vendors and three itashas on display. I asked one of the event managers or whatever and they said the first week is a "soft opening", I was wondering if there's more turnout this weekend.
how many of you guys include freebies in your orders? i'm starting to phase out freebies for orders under a certain amt and now i kind of feel bad even though i know i shouldn't...
>>10610386I include a sticker and business card in each order. It helps promote my shop too since they'll likely keep the sticker (with my business name on it) and stick it somewhere.

Could anyone tell me what is the difference between the more and less expensive options for this flute? Is the cheaper one supposed to be for beginners?
devilinspired is doing a free shipping promotion for mother's day and i was thinking of ordering shoes and other heavier things that jack up shipping prices. i've heard complaints about them refunding orders. do you guys think it's worth a try?
>>10609580Nope.
>>10609580please just make a spreenow account.
Can anyone help me understand the description? Is this a second deposit or first? I don't see anything about a full price in the info.https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.3-c.w4002-2416030270.79.6b1f141aPbLpYZ&id=644486518173
What do you feel about cosplay modeling and the system they have with photographers during big events like Comiket or whatever?

>>10609809I couldn't find anything about my dress, but if you like nostalgia then the old shop blogs are great. Loads of pictures of old releases.https://web.archive.org/web/20060130062207/http://blog.emilytemplecute-kyoto.com/?cid=16343
>>10610211It's often hard to find info on dresses by their item numbers. You may also try looking it up by googling the description of a dress in Japanese, like "brand + colour + material + features".
>>10610219I've tried that as well, Emicu has a lot of gingham releases lmao. I don't really mind though, it's 15 years old so I wasn't expecting to find much!
>>10603798but being a thot benefits scrotes more than women, but this is just the low lib fems go to justify being desperate for attention from scotes and hiding behind needing money when they are middle classed and privileged.
>>10610046I have a pair of heart buckles (probably quite old, given they're a rarely released color) and they are the lowest quality shoes I own. I only got them because they're so darn cute.
Post big boobed cosplayers. Alternativley, talk about why you hate your boobs and want a breast reduction.
>>10610348>because "lol we are both girls, its fine!"That's like the shit you see in porn plots and what closeted bi/lesbians/not really gay but want to do it so they can show men about it type of girls, who are all in some way being exploitative to the person on the receiving end of things if they're just groping people all the time in public without consent. Normal girls don't get naked all the time unless it's at the sauna/Asian public baths, etc. or they're changing in a locker room scenario but usually they are wearing underwear and not touching each other. The vast majority of women almost never actually do the "its fine cause we're both girls teehee" shit, that's just what men wish we did. Like I said there's the immature stuff like the kancho game japanese boys do (with clothes on tho) or girls and guys slapping each other's butts as a "joke" but all that type of shit is stuff teens do and it's still mildly sexual when it happens if it's not something like a purple nurple intended to cause pain as the joke.Straight women do not spontaneously or casually grope one another and not care/it not be sexual for at least one of the people, I know it may be confusing because of media and attention whores really pretending that it's all innocent but really and truly it is just not a common occurrence.
>>10610348I feel like all those things that say women are more gay than men naturally are not taking into account the fact that women are being exposed to media which is usually presented with a "straight male gaze" that will influence their ideas of sexuality beyond where they may originally start at, and aren't taking into account that bisexuality or homosexuality are much harder to admit to for men than women because of toxic social pressure on men to equate heterosexuality with masculinity.
>>10610353>The vast majority of women almost never actually do the "its fine cause we're both girls teehee" shitof course, i'm just saying it does definitely happen though. I think some women see it in anime and think its totally ok to do irl too.>>10610357I think its just women are more attractive than men. I saw a reddit post asking if men ever get complimented for their looks, and thousands of responses say no. And then there was the okcupid poll that showed men were rated way lower in attractiveness than women.When your average man spends no time on self-care and looks like a slob, and your average woman actually puts at least *some* time into self care, then naturally, more people will generally find women more attractive. There is definitely toxic masculinity/societal views mixed in there with being an issue too, but seriously, Idk if I have ever met a bi person who said they find more men attractive than women. I'm a man and its incredible the how little self care I have to put into my self to have women compliment me. I'm always confused by it and then they describe how their bf or male friends take no care of themselves.Why would you limit yourself to men when there are just so many more women who actually take care of themselves?
>>10610362>Why would you limit yourself to men when there are just so many more women who actually take care of themselves?Because I really just prefer dick even though I find women attractive and men have lower standards and my childhood trauma, mental illness, and being overweight are less likely to be dealbreakers despite women being more accepting when it comes to male partners. But yeah desu I think most women who shit talk their bfs are just not in a long term compatible relationship. I am super happy with my boyfriend and he responds well to constructive criticism in all areas of his life and is supportive to me as well. It's less about male/female overall and just finding people who meet your specific needs.
Men are just more desperate than women.

I can't stop thinking about the Emmanuelle setLilac is my dream, followed by pink. The other two/three colorways are okay, but not dream items for me.

>>10606928>Should thin out some of their ranksTo be honest, I though the reopening of Texas would do all the thinning by enticing anti vaxxers to drop everything and move to texas
I just realized with the cancellation of AX 2021 there will be a 3 year gap between the last AX and the next possible AX. Any good or notable cons happening in california or texas? Need something to ease my fucking misery.
>>10606928>, in one of the most anti-vaccine states in the country.not according to NYT. Hilarious, people think its a red state issue alone. don't know their recent history.
>>10610172Florida and Texas have been doing this shit for months now with declining cases and deaths. When are you retards going to give up on wishing death amongst people.
>>10610147I know I've seen a few maps related to this. Here's the first one I could find:https://aspe.hhs.gov/pdf-report/vaccine-hesitancyGoing by that map, it looks like the northwest flyover states are the most "vaccine hesitant", followed by the southeast (which includes Georgia).Since you brought it up, pretty much all of the states in those areas are red states, so there is certainly some correlation there.But I guess Georgia is considered a blue state now, so I digress.
does anyone know what kind of helmet this is and where I can get one?
>>10598842I think it might be based on a British WW1 infantry helmet https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodie_helmet
>>10606417cosplay you fucking moron
Making a five or six panel hat out of foam, plastidip, and leather will be your best bet. Also fuck the NCR, couldn't you cosplay something cool like the Legion, or Benny?
>>10598836Apparently it's based on a pith helmet. Kind of reminds me of those famous DDR helmets. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1k0L4CVGwFklb5svPdP6ifpGa1_27VIC5/view

Considering the current new reports about gyaru and revival of old magazines, it's about time for a new thread.https://youtu.be/BEUvhxmPN0s
>>10609289>the name "lolita" probably started off as a backhanded insult in the beginning, tooyou people really don't understand how life was before the internet, huh.
>>10610238Nayrt but lots of pre-internet fashion styles got their names that way, including punk and manba.
>>10609965hey there! my texture also varies between 3b/3c depending if i air dry or plop. keep in mind that with all these styles, my bangs are straightened and not tied up! my go-to is half up/half down styles, top being either pigtails or just a ponytail. sometimes i do space buns, twin braids, or just scrunch my curls w/ product to give a lot of volume with my straight bangs. they're all relatively quick styles and look schoolgirl-y enough to me. i do prefer letting my hair air dry, as my curls are looser and look a little beachier that way. hope it helps!
>>10610314Yeah great but lolita's name history isn't like that, you have a giant page on that on the origin in its jp wikipedia page (and yes, it's the book, but the interpretation of it is different in jp).
>>10610314in both of your exampes the insults weren't the origins of the fashions tho whereas mass-produced wota and similar are just stereotypes associated with pre-existing styles, just like how carnivore kei/肉食系 is associated with gyaru styles despite just being a term for sex craving people.
The manga doesnt have an anime and still having an excellent quality of fan content and cosplays

Skinny cosplay thread to inspire gulls to stop being fat
>>10609793This looks still ok to me
>>10610244
I love fat lolitas and cosplayers because they inspire me to lose weightI wish there were more compilations of them https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjhfD-aAs7c
>>10610244Oh yeah, Michelle, what a throwback. She was cringe but I do miss her online presence. Too bad she was never actually the deathly thin anachan queen she wanted to be, she just did those weird poses in selfies to make it look like she was.
>>10610344She looks like the size anachans want to stop at but never do cause they always see themselves as fat.Like other than her wrists being a bit bony here she doesn't look more than a kinda lanky person, but even so, anorexia is a mental illness; she was probably still not treating her body well to even be only moderately thin
