/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Any one got some good recommendations for petticoats on taobao? Ive been browsing through the stores and search tag but if any one has some experience I'd be really appreciative!

Oh, I'm fine!
If anything it's convinced me to stop caring about saleability of items and just make stuff for myself.

The only thing is that I can't just move everything over to the HBJ site/accounts and start over, because
A. Someone will definitely take it as an "I won!"
B. My professional/personal art is linked to my legal name and god knows they'd have a field day with that.

Basically marketing towards lolitas was a bad idea, hueh.

Thank you for being so concerned though, anon!

Ok now that I'm done being a sarcastic asshole, I bought most of these patterns (sans Linkil magey one, havent seen that in store yet)

I like the simplicitys push towards more cosplay orientated outfits. I dont think I'll ever make anything to look EXACTLY like the patterns because god knows I do not need a tardis or dalek ball gown in my closet, but because I can see myself using aspects of these patterns in other costumes.

I dont think cosplayers will ever stop macgyvering patterns to make things accurate. But now when I look at a cosplay and think "Hmmm need a shirtless sleeve sort of thing, oh hey heres that sexed up storm trooper pattern, yeah I can make that work" Besides if you do the smart thing and wait for the near constant 99 cents or 5 for 5 deals, then its cost effective and helpful. I almost never have to leave the costume section any more. I used to hate pouring over the pages and pages of the fashion sections looking for anything remotely similar that I could alter to get the look that I wanted.

Going back to get x-rays and ultrasounds next week. Might have had a heart attack back in February and my lungs are filling with blood.

Hey, it's better than cancer!
