I buy a few new releases directly from the brands (or from fashionwalker etc) but I buy a lot more from fril and mercari secondhand. You can also pick up a lot of stuff when it goes on sale. I'm signed up for emails on the brands I'm most interested in.

My experience of Katie is good this far. Especially on sale you get good deals for the money you pay!

I have one Eat Me item and that is really nice quality but I don't know about the general quality. I have impression it is alright, maybe someone has more experience

BonBon`s quality is a little worse than the price makes you expect imo. Clothes look nice in pictures but some material are poor irl. Not everything is bad but I wish they used better materials or had cheaper prices....

Is all this Ruka is trans stuff because she's a gendertrender and uses weird tumblr pronouns or something? Aside the fact that she's skinny she's very obviously actually female; she has tiny hands and no adam's apple. I can't see any other reason why this discussion would even happen so often.

There have been some discussions about this in past threads. I'll try to dig up some from the archives later.

I haven't bought any of their clothing, but Katie's accessories are awesome. I have a couple of hairclips from them and they are well worth the price, very strong and sturdy.

Ank Rouge is probably my favorite in terms of quality to cost ratio. Their stuff has always been consistently nice quality to me. They tend to put out similar things each season though so I don't buy from them regularly. I have enough ank rouge tops to last me a while. I just wish their dresses fit better, but the fit is just really weird and "muumuu" like. They even tend to look odd on the models, a bad sign. Get separates from them if you want to spend your money wisely.

Honey Cinnamon doesn't get talked about much anymore but their stuff is good quality for the price. A lot of their stuff tends to be slightly altered versions of what other brands have put out so I'd definitely suggest taking a look there if you can't afford something from one of the bigger brands.

E hyphen bonbon is overpriced, most definitely. I'm happy with what I got from them but I only bought one piece firsthand. It feels like Ank Rouge quality, or even a little worse. Stick to buying it secondhand unless you're dying for a certain design. You are paying for Risa's name being attached to the brand.

I have a couple of things from LilLilly and while I do like them, I didn't get them for full price and I probably wouldn't have paid full price for them. The quality is definitely there and I think the materials are where a lot of the cost comes in but the designs aren't inspiring enough. I factor that into the idea of "quality" as well.

I also have some Milk stuff. I know they're not really Larme but some pieces are so I thought I'd mention it. Definitely expensive and at times overpriced, but everything is well made so if you can pick up stuff secondhand it's a great deal.

Crayme and Eatme are worth the price to me. I own a number of crayme pieces, which I did get either on sale or secondhand but I would have paid the full price for them. I love the designs and everything is very comfortable. They have raised their prices somewhat for their new collections and I haven't been as enthralled with them so I haven't bought from them in a while so I'm not sure if the quality still stands.

Eatme's quality is consistently nice and I have some of their older and newer stuff and I've been happy with all of it. Like crayme I just love their designs which justifies a lot of the price for me, but their stuff also seems nicely constructed and is very comfortable. A lot of their stuff does go on sale at the end of the season so keep on eye out for that.

Annnnd everyone already knows most swankiss stuff is crap. Buy it secondhand, if at all. I think that's everything I personally have experience with.

Personally I'd love to get some more opinions on mon lily. Is it worth the price? I know it's an offshoot of dreamv which I don't really like... Also does anyone own anything from verybrain? Is it worth the huge pricetag?? I really want to know.

Ank Rouge is solid quality and quite good for what you pay for.
Honey Cinnamon is good for the price, but if the fabric looks delicate, it probably is.
Bonbon is hit or miss. Some of their stuff is very plasticky.
Rose Marie Seoir is fantastic quality no matter what you get, but some things are better deals than others because their pricing scheme jumps from like Ank Rouge to lolita brands.
Swankiss uses crappy trims and things because I guess that's their aesthetic, but their construction doesn't seem too bad.
Bubbles is nice. I wear my platforms from them almost every day. They are dying but I've worn them enough that that's reasonable.
Milk has some Larme stuff and they're great quality, and it goes super cheap secondhand. I got a bag from them that Risa has in her stylebook, and I managed to get it on auction for like 2000 yen.
Monlily is just a step below Ank Rouge in terms of quality, but it's also cheaper usually anyways.

I've bought all of my Verybrain stuff secondhand. The quality/construction is really good, however I wouldn't really say that the price is 100% justified especially because if whatever you ordered doesn't fit you I'm pretty sure you'd find it hard to resell for close to the original price.
HOWEVER, if you see a piece you like at a decent price second hand I would go for it. The great thing about Verybrain is that their items have a more 'classic' but at the same time really distinctive feel so they're versatile.

Speaking of reselling where would you say is the best for that? I've been looking to shift a few things but the fb group seems to be pretty slow.

What is your opinion about gradient lips in larme? I keep seeing some girls doing this style for larme but for some reason it reminds me more of ulzzang. I think "solid" lipstick or lipgloss look appears more common in the magazine? I personally prefer that style. In larme you don't have to make your lips look smaller either unlike in some j-fashion styles and big lips are even popular because risa and some other larme models have really big puffy lips. Not saying you can't look larme with smaller lips too but imo there is no need to fake them smaller in this fashion.

I get what you mean but if I wanted to sell for example a brand new Honey Mi Honey item that was originally $150 I am just not ready to sell it for really cheap. Chances are I have to just keep it then but yeah the idea hurts too much

The unfortunate thing for people who try to sell brand second hand is that sometimes same things you try to sell on western community without success get sold on fril & mercari in a couple of days with decent prices. In Japan you could find buyers easily but not here. Of course it is ridiculous to sell some used item that was $60 with the same price though

You probably can't find anything too fancy by more pricey brands (katie, verybrain, rose marie seoir, honey mi honey etc) as second hand or from sale if you are not ready to pay like 50-80% of the original price. The discount price can still be 6000-18 000. Sometimes you can get lucky though but people rarely sell certain brands second hand cheap unless the condition is bad or item is less popular

>for example a brand new Honey Mi Honey item that was originally $150 I am just not ready to sell it for really cheap.

You should always assume, in any fast fashion ruled by trends, that your item is worth half it's original price as soon as you've bought it. Too many people have the mindset of lolita, which is way more like a collectors hobby than a fashion second hand market.

Think of it like this, by selling an item - Especially a new item - you are saying you'd rather have the money you paid than the item. In other words, the item was not worth the amount you paid for it. You cannot simultaneously say that an item was not worth what you paid for it, and try and charge someone else that amount.

Excepting rare and highly sought after items here obviously, but larme is much more like western fast fashion and doesn't really have items that are consistently coveted year after year. Something is popular because it's a trend or it was endorsed by a model, that popularity doesn't last.

>> No.9264431

>>9264236
I get your point maybe the problem is that people have different attitudes about the subject and the "right price" of the second hand item can be hard to determine because of this.

My fashion mindset is probably closer to some lolitas although I never wore the fashion. My goal is to collect my dream warbrobe that is not too dependent on trends only. This is why I am ready to pay some $$$ to buy my dream brand items as second hand as long as condition us good or brand new. Many don't feel the same I assume but collecting clothes kind of is my hobby? I never ask for the same price I paid myself though if I try to resell something

Selling brand second hand is hard but at least it motivates me to make better purchases, items that are left unused are waste of money after all....

If I followed trends actively I had hard time to create a large wardrobe of my dreams because I couldn't keep updating it quickly enough. If you buy more expensive brands it can be smart to go for versatile or classical pieces otherwise you just end up wasting money when trends change -if you only liked the clothes when they were trendy. In larme I feel that some elements (fluffy cardigans, faux leather items, ma-1 jackets, faux furs, fluffy heels) especially in autumn fashion have remained more or less same for a few years ready which can be helpful to many.

Last Virgin is owned by Swankiss, and having been to their shop, I'd say their quality are more or less the same.

I remember thinking that Last Virgin somehow feels of an edgy/grunge version of Swankiss before finding out they're the same company, not sure if it was the construction/quality or design that gave it away.

Yeah, the fb group is definitely slow. I mean, I'd personally be open to buying things but there's nothing I'm particularly interested in on there. Nothing against the posters, I just have very specific things I'm looking for.

I would look at other platforms too. Maybe try posting a sales post on tumblr or depop or something. I've moved a few things this way. It's definitely hard for Japanese brands, due to the size and higher price point. You may have to take a loss.

>>9263228
I have a few things that I'm scratching my head about what to do with, but luckily not too many. Have you bought a lot of Japanese clothing (outside lolita) before getting into Larme? I feel like there's a bit of a learning curve to figure out what silhouettes work for you and how sizes work out.

Maybe we could share fit tips for certain brands here? That would help with the quality discussion.

>>9263258
I wonder if you would make more sending items back to a middle man in Japan to resell them on mercari or fril for you. Well, there's a job opportunity for someone living in Japan right now.

Japan is definitely more brand oriented than over here, even outside of Larme or lolita. So prices don't drop as much as over here, since collecting certain pieces is more of a status thing.

>>9264431
Yeah, while things do change there are some lasting trends. For fall, I don't see velvet going out of style any time soon for instance. Pink and black seems to be one of the biggest lasting trends. If you stick to those sort of things it's easier to build up a wardrobe you won't have to completely overhaul in a few months.

For me it feels a bit that way too tough I never thought about it until now.

I sometimes feel that even if I do my make-up very much in Larme style it can look just too basic if I don`t wear circle lenses (I don`t wear them). Maybe because the make-up can look quite "natural" although you were wearing the whole set: suitable eyeshadow, brown eyeliner, blush, lipstick or gloss that finishes the look etc... When I wear natural falsies my make-up usually looks more "Larme" although it sounds silly but this makes me wonder if I should wear contacts like many models do. Having natural falsies + right kind of makeup + circle lenses creates a different look compared to having the same makeup only with mascara. I don`t know...

Yeah I don't post them anymore mostly because I don't want to deal with the shitshow from last time. The facebook group went a little crazy which led to the ghost members deletion craze and then one of the mods thought deleting the whole group might be a good idea... I mean we could still post from public places I guess.

I think maybe a more general discussion about what works and what doesn't might be better. I'm sure we can all think of a few examples of what doesn't work...

Ok I'll start: So I've been into Larme for a while and a couple of years ago it as very hard to find Larmable offbrand pieces because Western trends hadn't yet come up. Now, it's quite easy, and you can push the style even more into larme by adding some accessories from aliexpress. So, relatively easy and cheap. Why can some people still not get the style down? I see some outfits that look pretty basic. I mean, if they had the makeup and hair up to par it would be one thing, there are simple looks in the magazine too. But if you don't have the makeup, the hair, or the aesthetics down then it doesn't look like anything other than a normal outfit.

>> No.9266972

>>9266888

>>9266932
It's shit that people can't/wont post anyone from anywhere because of this. Insta, tumblr etc aren't off limits but I guess most people post duplicate content on their social media, so there'd probably be a shitshow about someone posting them "From the group" anyway.

>>9266932
I think part of the reason people struggle is because they don't really bother to read the magazine...they just try to imitate the same few popular OTT pictures and styles that get passed around social media a bunch. So their idea of larme is too narrow and when they realize they can't exactly replicate those OTT looks instead of drawing inspo from other larme sources they just fall back on "kawaii" shit, or cheap clearance rack western clothes that might have some lace on them.

People in this thread are some of the nicest I've seen to people who self posting. I feel like people here really want to help others improve.

That said there are some people who don't seem to improve no matter how much crit is given to them, which is a bit frustrating. I do feel like I've seen small bits of improvement though, even in some of the most notoriously poorly dressed posters, both here and on the FB group. So I suppose that's good.

>>9266987
Yeah, people not reading through the magazine is definitely a problem. Also a big part of that is that by not taking in the magazine as a whole, they're really missing out on the big picture. I feel like the more you read Larme, the better your style will become just naturally. If you're only looking at a few select scans and then try to throw something together, it just ends up looking off.

It's been mentioned a lot before but Larme is also more similar to traditional fashion than other jfashion styles. IMO it definitely helps to have a good fashion sense outside of Larme and to be frank, some girls haven't cultivated that. I feel like some girls could stand to learn what styles flatter them and how to put together "normal" outfits before they move onto to something as trendy as Larme. But that's not kawaii...

I think the thing about posting people from the fb group comes down to the fact that most of the people who post good coords also have public social media where you can find their outfits. It's only really the "hey I just found Larme so I threw together an outfit from my closet is it ok?" that only have their outfits on the fb group. I think people are concerned about scaring newbies away from the style by having their outfits taken and critiqued publicly. But then no one is willing to really give in depth crit in the group for fear of being labeled the bitch.

My dresses from MonLily have been pretty decent quality and price. I've worn them to death but they've held up for longer than I expected. One of the tops I bought lost it's stretch in the neckline after a few washes though.
I bought from BonBon in person before Risa did her first collab with them, and scored a good dress for half price. It was similar quality to MonLily. Their sales make it worth it, but I agree with the others that their stuff is hit or miss.

There is no info about titty&co and lillilly bags (or I have missed it) but titty&co's bags have looked nice, casul and easy to coordinate earlier. They have nice outerwear included every year too!

I tend to look for more toned down pieces like Maihee wears than go crazy. Some girls in larme wear things that dont match or are a bit much. Capsulebunny for e.g wears a weird mix of larme and for me it just doesnt fit the bill.

I prefer pieces like Risa had in her first style book which gives a dolly look but gives larme vibes.

This dress reminds me of something bubbles would put out. I would check out their twitter and onepiece section for ideas.

I also disagree with >>9267636, with the right styling it could definitely work. I think you might have too much black on black. I know this isn't the right time of year but imo the dress would look nicer with bare legs to show contrast.

>> No.9267923 [DELETED] 

I think the reason people have a harder time with larme than they do Lolita is because with larme you have to actually have knowledge on fashion +hair/makeup, not just follow a simple formula and slap on a wig. The overall image of larme is harder for chubby girls to pull off as well, where with lolita you can sort of mask your rolls with a petticoat and massive wig.

>> No.9267956

>>9267923

So so true.

If you are small and petite already its easy for Larme to look more... suited? If thats the right term... we're used to models like Risa, Maihee, Yui ect who are tiny already and even just wearing simple fishnets, black boots with a leopard skirt its "larme" but put that on someone bigger its less larme? Its stupid to think that obviously but... yeah.

I think the models don't look look that similar but many of them do have kind of similar style hair and make-up and they are petite -probably these together can create the impression of similarity? In Larme 25 every model (based on a quick look) had brown hair: middle brown, dark brown/maybe black, reddish brown... Someone had lighter brown shade but yeah mostly brown! In some issues and especially in older ones there is more variation but because brown hair is so well presented in the magazine maybe it is easier to create the look with brown hair. Just because that is what we commonly see in Larme. I think you can create the look with other hair color very well but if your styling overall is a bit off maybe having for example dyed blonde hair (which is rarely presented in the magazine) can make the impression even less larme. Obviously not everyone with brown hair looks automatically larme.... This is just something I noted when I started to think about the models and what they have in common.

Are we all just dancing around the whole Asian aspect?

I do think there is an implicit bias for Asian looking girls in Larme because that's what we're used to seeing in the magazine. That's certainly one of the most glaring similarities between the models.

oh wait >>9268077 came in as I was writing. But yeah it may be racist but I do think that's what people are picking up on most, mostly unconsciously.

Yeah, there is a bias for asian women in all jfashions. Lolita used to be more like this years ago, but now the online lolita community is almost exclusively dominated by non-asian girls. Gyaru and Larme are very similar, and Gyaru was heavy on the asian-fixation.

If every girl dressed like Kylie Jenner, then places like Forever 21 and H&M would only be selling those clothes. Face it- Larme aesthetics are also popular in normie fashion this year.

That seems to be the exact opposite of Larme. Even putting aside the detail work of most Larme clothing, the fact is that the magazine itself presents an anti-minimalist image. It's more about constant consumption and staying on top of ever evolving trends. I seriously have no idea how you ever thought the two could go together.

Sorry didn't see this before I posted.

Well im very sorry that not everyone wants to add sparkles and ugly stickers on their selfies/pieces.

I meant as a blog or Instagram feed btw. Most who try too hard to be kawaii end up looking tacky. We have yet to see anyone from the west fully pull off Larme yet anyway. Even if you look at Risa or Maihees instagram pages their feed isnt cluttered awfully. When they take their outfit posts its very basic and even bags/purses in their flatlays they look simple but in a nice way which matches the Larme aesthetic. You dont need to have a jumble sale messy room with rilakkuma or hello kitty plushes floating around to suit Larme.

Dumb question:

Although larme is trend based, do you have to keep up with them to be classed as larme or is it ok to wear previous seasons trend if you like them best.

I'm still trying to figure out my style preference but I really like the black/pink/texture.

>> No.9269477

Probably depends. You can see from looking at previous issues that there are some lasting trends like pink and black, while a lot of trends seem to transform, like the big, prominent pompom trend turning into smaller, subtler pompoms. Some trends are seasonal, like velvet and burgundy for winter. Still other trends are pretty fleeting. The newest issue has a spread on hot pink which I don't believe with have the lasting power of other trends, but I could be wrong.

I would take a look at the last year or so of issues and see what pops up again and again. That would be your "classic" look that you can build off of. Then you might be able to update your style wah season with new accessories or something rather than in main pieces.

I'm a total trend whore though so I'm only speculating on how that would work you still might end up looking dated at some point.

it's true that currently I am a master of b8

but I know I can get better

I want to make it the purest form of art

Ebunnybee (tumblr) comes to mind. I personally don't follow her, but her outfits are okay, and I think she lives in Japan so she has tons of brand. I just scrolled thru her blog and her pics are not the best quality though.

We should just ignore that troll she tries very hard to start a fight about anything to amuse herself.

If it comforts anyone she is probably not as cute as she thinks (people who have to keep saying how cute they are aren't usually as cute as they imagine) and if she was superb cute she likely had her pictures online and she could be popular for her looks. But nope doesn't seem like that. If her life was interesting and exciting she wouldn't be trolling here all day all night but doing something with her friends, shopping, spending time with her man.... But nope. What is the point of being cute if you just sit home and troll here. Boring life. Let's ignore her shit.

You are probably new, but it's HWC and she isn't trying. When she actually tries we end up losing 30-60 threads because she spams the board with useless shit. Please don't challenge her to try.

I don't because it hurts too much, so I prefer finding either scans of the issue or photograph the pages I like with a good camera and then print them out. That way I can arrange everything in Photoshop too before having it printed out.

I had that when i lived in a town mostly, adidas was also really popular and most things in stores were pretty chavy? But now I live in a city and go to university i see all sorts of styles, and the stores have much nicer things. So I guess it depends, stores stock what they think people in that area will buy.
