Not Lolita but Notome, figured it would still be appropriate enough to post here though considering we don't have a Notome thread yet. Anyways found this goldmine in the Otome general thread going on right now, I guess even in Otome you get fatties that try as hard as they might to squeeze their sausage selves into ill-fitting dresses. I always figured this was just a thing pertaining to the Lolita comm but maybe its just a fat thing in general?

Dropping my pic for concrit. I'm a fatty-chan but on the low-end/borderline of plus-size still I'm quite busty and the bodice of this dress wouldn't really come down all the way... I don't think it looks too noticeable though and at least it wasn't so tight that I was uncomfortable.

Anyways outfit rundown!
--
Dress: ETC Bunny Handkerchief
Bag: Swimmer
Everything else: Offbrand

Btw since I was under the impression that Otome is really quite casual I thought it would be okay not to wear a blouse, so I didn't is that acceptable? Or is a blouse essential to Otome like it is to Lolita?
