>>10560500The only reason I wouldn't buy >>10560078 is because I'm trying to save money and go for more casual looks this year.So it's me it's my fault, sorry.
>>10559038Never, it has always been sewn on.
Does it even have a chance?

Anyone want to share nice Pieck cosplays?
>>10548142Cute
>>10548142Even with all of the filters and editing, I still can't see it as Pieck. The wig doesn't even come close, despite it being really simple, and the character doesn't wear makeup let alone a glitzy nightclub look.From what I've seen, all of her cosplayers share the same problem of going for a generic middle part instead of making it messy and giving it parted curtain bangs like she has.
>>10559477Found the non-cosplayer. This eye makeup is clearly meant to mimic the shadowed effect that most aot characters have around their eyes, and it works. a character may not wear makeup (and honestly most anime characters don't), but when cosplaying as them you still definitely should, even if it's just evening out your skintone or changing your eye shape to match the character
Less discussion, more pieck!
>>10559514It's photoshop, newfag. And not good photoshop.
Ask for and post pics of items being worn.Previous Thread: >>10406924
Any summery coords? Like mint colorways and fruits?
>>10471958Literally just go on the Lolita tag on Instagram or search holy lantern on cof, it won’t take you long to find it lmaoI don’t you’re being serious but if you are this is a thread is for uncommon items not for the most standard basic shit that you couldn’t be bothered googling
>>10558146This is so unbelievably cute perfect mix of cozy and still elegant
>>10558146OP here - I love this! Very cute! Does anyone have any more of this dress? It seems so rare that people coord it well (Bodyline L310)
>>10559623I have the dress but I honestly haven't made a coord with it yet that I liked, either.One of the things that I find a little annoying about it and why I don't reach for it super often is that the chest ruffles and sleeves are very bulky and a little cumbersome-feeling. It's certainly a mid-winter sort of dress but I find it difficult to wear in the cold with a coat because of how bulky it feels, moreso than other velveteen dresses I own.
>>10553407 previous thread
>>10559854Eh if they just had a basic BABY skirt or something similar it would be fine. And yeah, that says antifa.Fuck fascism and all, but this skirt is an eyesore and just isn’t lolita
>>10559863Eh i guess, still would be lacklustre as fuck, the rhs are cool thoughYou're right the the skirt is definitely not loltia, and i feel like antifa should stay the hell away from lolita, really don't want my petti to be assulted by a bike lock lmao
should I just wait to post itas until next thread since this one is already saging all to hell?
>>10559914yeah i would just leave it for now, unless you've got enough to start off a new thread in which case be my guest
>>10559863Enough. Politics. In. Lolita!

>>10558189I'm feeling lazy, but you can find some items using the "gears" tag on lolibrary
>>10558190Thus my request. I want to see if it can be done.
>>10513671requestiny a dark larme/girly wardrobe
>>10513671Requesting a wardrobe that somehow blends gothic and sweet in a cohesive way. Maybe by sticking to a colour of sweet like dark blue? I would love to see this done well (I won’t use the controversial B word, but it’s basically the style I’m looking for)
>>10556569Thank you anon, you nailed it. I love the tulle/sheer pieces you included!
Gerfags, how are you holding up in lockdown?Spoons:Do you have any hopes for conventions in 2021?Cosplans for this year, with or without cons?Tiktok: based or cringe?Will Animexx ever come back?
>>10533452It's kind of an old album isn't it? Why not something a little bit more modern? What do the kids listen to these days? Creed?
>>10533469>>10533473Drama?Can you give me a run-down?And is Animexx really down?Afaik, I can still visit the site
>>10551628no
>>10540238I dunno, there can be a certain appeal to that sort of performative artificiality. You know, much the same as the appeal of cosplay in general.
>>10551628no thanks

>>10543280You can't exactly get an exception on the curfew for an online event or competing in a cosplay competition. No doubt the curfew was the final nail in the coffin. The only thing DCC could had tried was moving their stream to daytime but considering the "a large group did not see the value of a (paid) online event" it's safe to say sales were poor.
So, Elfia Arcen with restrictions, or a hopefully normal Elfia Haarzuilens. What will you choose?
Anyone making some snow cosplay photos this week?
>>10533503I doubt it. At best there might be an outdoor event but I don't really expect anything until after the summer, especially indoor.>>10547503Whatever is possible at the time, obviously.
Can't we just like... Organize a big online meetup. Without ticket prices and all that hassle? A discord server that actually is some kind of convention. With a short schedule just to get in the mood. Just for a day or an evening. Like meetups from yesteryear. But online. Idk idea might be shite or it might be quite okay.

>>10549189This is why I date ugly chicks, cuz they actually hot
>>10549360That's mean..
>>10459350>Not traveling through the backroomsGet a load of this guy
>>10549360based
lol at all the npcs knocking people for cosplaying in publicyou all's thought processes must be "screw them for trying to have fun! they dress different from the norm and different bad!"i don't even care about the kind of people who'd judge me for this
>Japan is cracking down on cosplay.Thoughts?
>>10543518Asuka hates Shinji, but also "likes" him, maybe, somehow
>>10542826>>10558364On an unrelated note, chings would have done the same to japs anyway (or might even do that in the future)
>>10542821gross also that anime sucks ass
>>10542741Mostly cos-thots, not cosplay in of itself.
in the end all of this was hot air
For New Year Eve let's have a predictions thread > what trends do you expect to be popular (hard mode - not to mention the 2010 OTT sweet revival)> what trends do you think will fall out of style> what themes would you like to see next year
>>10526846>what trends do you expect to be popularApplique all day baby. Nakayoshi Bunny and Moco Moco Bunnies, plus BABYs letter applique dress last year gives me hope.
>>10546322retro girl?

So anyone going to this? Seems like it's happening regardless.https://kanpaicon.com/Just thankful to have something going on that isn't shit, anyone going?
>>10551785lol @ the harassment section
What will be of the cosplay community? What will go out? What will stay?
The pandemic is really showing which cons have their shit together financially and which cons just needlessly spend their money.Two cons I'm worried about are my home-state cons, AWA and Momocon. Momocon not so much because it has big daddy Dragon*con being their sugar daddy, but even then if D*C starts to feel the pressure, they are going to cut off a few fingers to save the hand (Basically cut ties with momo) and if so, that con will cease to exist unless they can pull it out of their ass. AWA... Hard to say. The con has been around for a while, in the same venue for close to 20 years - so it's likely they are in the black - But I don't know the logistics for that con as my inside sources stopped staffing years ago to go have kids.Katsu I'm not worried about, since it did get to run last year - And it can probably sit out this year - However, next year if it doesn't get to operate they might feel the pressure as well.
>>10554034This is another huge issue. Without the venues being able to host other events ( and rent out rooms if it's a hotel) they are gonna die out as well. I've already seen a few that are getting liquidated locally. Even the really really big ass venues have possibly taken damage because of this.
>>10548395>>/cgl/r/cgl: An 18+ subreddit dedicated to those in the Cg/l (Caregiver/little BDSM dynamic) ... It is a fetish in which they may feel a desire to wear or use diapers.nah, we know this a board full of daddy issue freaks. The cosplay is just a cover.
>>10556663Dragon-con is in some deepshit because of their size and logistics. Momo-con was already on life support from Dragon-con, hence the "managerial support" from DC.AWA is in better shape and position being time of year and the vaccine should be fully deployed, but they likely need to go on this year or they will be in a bad spot.
>>10548393conventions and cosplay will always be a thing as long as people want attention
