The Paris site still has 3 of each colorway in stock (in the skirt and jsk), which makes me think no one has bought any of them.

AP really just flushed everything down the drain. I wonder if they are even trying anymore.

Paris release went a lot smoother than I thought. For once they put the general release up before 6:30 PM. By the time I was done checking out with the necklace and ring, there were 8 necklaces left and 12 ring left, so I wonder what the original totals were? Maybe 20 for each?

I think maybe it was easier to get because there was just one colorway. That means more people can add it too their cart at once than with quantity being split between different colorways.

I'm not super sure though. Maybe people were disappointed by the pink/lavender/mint coloring? I know I personally thought it'd be cuter with a yellow/pink/sax design.

it sounds dumb and all but i think lolitas prefer to see people enjoying the clothes vs the standard aloof and bored or intense model looks we see in normie fashion, and we have that standard because of past advertising material we're used to. non-smiling expressions can be cute (look at risa in the op pic of the mid-autumn festival thread, she looks adorable despite not smiling) but if AP is gonna just do her on a white background the ads tend to feel flat when risa does the same expression or hardly poses.

As someone who owns the MTO, 95cm sounds about right in my opinion. Any bigger and you'd have a lot of trouble zipping it up, if you can at all.

Really odd that AP still claims the max stretch is 102 when there's no way it can stretch that far, even if you count margin of error. I get not having to accomodate to fatties but I can't really blame anyone for being upset that they're too big for a dress that should've fit them according to the listed measurements.

>> No.10675707

>>10675703
This. Meta made plus size dresses and got the elastic a bit too tight making the sizing feel off, and offered free alterations to fix it. I can fit it without those and got the bigger size for length, so I didn't need it, but the fact they offered because it was their own fuck up is really nice and appreciated. Not saying AP needs to do the same but acknowledging the difference or trying trying have some level of accuracy on measurements would be good. I guess in AP's defense they aren't catering to plus sizes as directly as Meta so sizing being a little off doesn't matter as much to them or won't affect their reputation in their usual market

If a few anons can post flat measurements of the OP, we'd have solid proof of whether or not it's the original sizing or the MTO's claimed sizing.

Lipo is the answer. People have this misconception that it's for landwhales but that's actually false. It's entirely about distribution of fat, not weight loss. Any weight you "lose" in the operation will be regained extremely quickly if your eating habits remain unchanged.

Source: I got lipo. I had stubbon, weirdly distributed fat around my abdomen which I hated. I was already clinically underweight, so losing more weight was obviously not the answer. Since getting lipo, I don't think twice about showing off my stomach.

For the measurements of AP and how short it is, that is the ideal waist at max.

You shouldn't be whining about how you're tall and your waist is larger. Maybe AP is not for you, but a longer length lolita brand?

I'm almost certain that must be some retarded Americafag confusing cm and inches. There are not that many anachans in every comm I've seen, so I have a hard time believing that 4chan is suddenly swarming with them.

nta and idk who liv is but how could you possibly try to narrow down a generic post like that when many girls into lolita are womanlets since it's a fashion that suits petite/shorter women well, and 99% of non asian girls are fat by cgl standards

You’re all embarrassing. Speaking from experience, standard sample sizes for literal professional models in the UK are size 6 or 8. A size 8 has about a 70cm waist.

You're really expecting too much of burgers. Even when LM changed the plus size friendly tag to try to improve it, they had it in inches instead of cm, and many people are always posting on fb groups asking for dresses that fit their measurements and listing in inches.

I said UK 6 was 80cm bust, not waist. Cause some people think busts in the 80-90cm range is too big too. 70cm waist is for US 6. Sorry if that was confusing switching between the two.

Well since you’re new it makes sense you didn’t know. But 99% of people use cm in this fashion.

>> No.10676305

>>10676303
Oh I'm definitely in the group that uses cm, I was just giving examples of how despite cm being the best thing to use since that's what brands use, that even still burgers will use inches and probably get them confused. You don't have to buy from LM regularly to be aware that when they made the change people were immediately confused by why it was inches and not cm. But using LM is fine in general, the selection is just rough a lot of the time and prices are often mediocre at best.

There are decent prices occasionally but they go in actual seconds at times so not worth stalking the site for that but nice if you get lucky checking one day. I usually buy direct from brands though because there's rarely older items I want that I don't already own at this point so I'm more focused on new things.
