/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Just spotted this on CC and I'm guessing it's super old. Can't find a lolibrary entry for it.

Anyone recognize this cutie?

>>9620549
https://lolibrary.org/items/iw-candy-pattern-flare-jsk It's 10 years old this year.

For you velvet loving gulls: https://item.mercari.com/jp/m87593442420/

>>9620567
And some velvet AP too: https://item.mercari.com/jp/m59337575165/

>>9620573
>47000 yen
I hate that seller with a burning passion. I'd buy a lot from them if their stuff wouldn't be so overpriced.

>>9620559
thank you kind anon!

>>9620579
>tfw sold velvet AP for $50

>>9620567
What an absolutely amazing pristine piece.

>>9620579
Their name is literally "please consult the price cut "

>>9620567
I want, but I have so much fucking velvet already I already had a problem this summer.

>>9620567
I want to slap the commenter so bad, just buy it already, it's beautiful and worth the money.

>>9620549
Someone's selling this same dress in black on LM
https://egl.circlly.com/auctions/innocent-world-sweets-jsk-in-black

Does anyone have any examples of school/preppy themed coords in oldschool? I have some old meta I want to use for it but need some inspo!

>>9620544
I want this VM apron for a monochrome Alice coord...

>>9622748
not going to spoonfeed you too hard because I'm super tired (go look through the folders and old G&LBs and you'll find plenty), but these are some of my favourites

>>9623174

>>9623175
The rest aren't my faves, but for some reason there were a lot of ties and suit jackets in this issue so I might as well dump them.

>>9623178

>>9623180
Real-life example bottom right.

>>9623183
debatably lolita but def. preppy

>>9623187
Maxicimam really liked ties back then, they put out more than any other brand I can think of.

>>9623189

>>9623194
Bottom left.

>>9623195

>>9623200
bottom right isn't that preppy to me but it's another tartan suit set

>>9623203

>>9623206
this is like...almost exactly the same coord twice except switching models. Misako looks so dead-eyed here.

>>9623207
I hope this dump is also useful to that anon who was asking for coords with ties while the last thread was at image limit.

>>9623209
Interrupting your regularly scheduled programming here: a few threads ago there were like two consecutive threads where anons were dumping photos and information about AP's Cherry Pintuck from different auction listings. Nobody mentioned this, a street snap of it in G&LB 10. The text says Angelic Pretty so I'm pretty sure this is the right dress. If that anon's still around I hope they like this, if they haven't seen it already.

>>9623213

>>9623215

>>9623220
Not sure what top right even is - Jane Marple maybe?

>>9620549
just found the skirt for cheap
https://item.fril.jp/2cfe44db25660fe436f13848cc0b4fb4

this is the most I've ever seen of this print!!

>>9623223

>>9623227
sailor uniform bottom right; Angelic Pretty's Cherry Pintuck again (I think) bottom left

>>9623231

>>9623233

>>9623244
Bored now. You could continue searching from GLB 16 if you want more, OP.

>>9623209
Thank you so much, this dump is really helpful and inspiring!

>>9623207
Is the girl on the left wearing purple Window Print?
Was is released or is it just photoshoot special?

>>9623650
its the black version

>>9623718
I was wondering if it was the case. The shade is just so different from other blacks in the picture it looked odd to me.

Hey all, I found a dress on Mercari and I'm almost certain it's Pretty, pre-"Angelic". I'm not really familiar with anything they released before they became "Angelic Pretty" and Lolibrary is endlessly loading for me so I can't search for anything on there. I'm probably not going to buy it but if any sharp-eyed oldschoolers thing this might be bonafide Pretty, here's the link:
https://item.mercari.com/jp/m88373546490/

I also don't really know how mercari works I was just browsing through, so idk if it's normal to just have one picture for an item or not.

>>9620573
I found a black velvet BTSSB set
https://item.mercari.com/jp/m351246351/

>>9624341
This is neither black nor velvet.

>>9623253
this seems really short for a lolita dress

>>9624446
It's not black but it's definitely velvet, it's in the listing plus you can tell just by looking. Are you OK anon?

>>9624502
That's velour anon.

>>9624502
there's a substantial difference between velour, velvet, and velveteen. don't take offense--this is a fashion and that stuff matters to many of us. the different piling affects how a piece lays and moves with the body, and also what material blouses are best to be paired with it.

>>9624474
A lot of the handmade stuff Nana Kitade (I think that's her? I'm really bad at telling Nana and Moon Kana apart) made or modelled in the early G&LBs was more like her conceptual stage costumes than lolita, this is actually one of the most tasteful ones and isn't that short by oldschool standards. Here's an example of some of the handmade she did that I wouldn't class as lolita.

>>9624594
>>9624672
No need to be pedantic, "velvet" is a commonly used by lolitas and brands as a catch-all that can refer to either velour, velvet or velveteen. It makes sense since velour is often called "stretch velvet"

>>9623253
>>9625042
It says it's Moon Kana in the bubble.
Is there any interest in having these pages translated? I'd be willing to at least do blurbs.
I am currently funemployed and need to use my Japanese somehow, lest I lose it. If they've already been done somewhere or no one's really interested, though, I'll work on something else.
Willing to translate anything any anons request.

>>9625060
I'd love translations, anon! I'm way less interested in the handmade sections than I am in translations of the lifestyle content though. How about this spread on essential gothic brands? I always thought it was funny how they gave instructional transformations, and I like how it (slightly) goes against the idea that Japanese lolitas had literally no idea about what Western goth was really about.

If that's a bit long and dry for you to want to translate, there are some pretty funny sections on lolifying your room I could dig up.

>>9625077

>>9625079

>>9625080
just noticed that I should have said "gothic bands" not "gothic brands" in

>>9625083
It ends with a page of recommended albums from different lolita brands and figures, which I think would be the most interesting page to translate even if you skipped the rest.

>>9625085

>>9625086
Actually, I just realised that this is probably way more interesting to the average lolita than anything to do with bands is, but I'm not sure if it's already been translated - it's an interview with Baby designers I think?

>>9625092

>>9625060
>>9625077
Seconding room sections. You could also do these cheesy goth recipes. I will dump them.

>>9625097

>>9625099

>>9625100

>>9625101

>>9625103

>>9625105

>>9625108

>>9625110

>>9625097
Some of the recipes have already been translated, that's why I didn't suggest them. Some were translated back in the EGL days and may now be gone. I think there was actually an anon in the oldschool thread that wanted to make some of these about a year ago and someone helping her (said they were basically just normal cake recipes), but I can't find it in the archives. I remember someone was posting the drippy penis candles and boob corset cookies to mock in the same thread.

>>9625114

>>9625117
>>9625118
Sadly most of the pics on EGL are gone, and with recent events I think it would be nice to have it in place.

>>9625124

>>9625126
If they are still there, could you link them? I can't find anything.

>>9625127

>>9625129
End dump.

>>9625117
They were also translated for the English GLBs at one point.

>>9625124
>>9625126
>>9625127
>>9625114
>>9625110
Are ones I recall, at least in part. It's likely more of them were in those mooks.

>>9625101
>If only the pastry could be dyed black...
>then it'd be a KUROquembouche

>>9625154
>They were also translated for the English GLBs at one point.
I wonder which issue? I just checked Issue 1 and The Wedding Issue, which are the only English volumes I own, and they're not in either.

>>9625192
As far as I remember they were mostly in the Halloween issue, I think Asumiko Nakamura did the cover art for that volume. Even the corset cookies with the boobs were in it .

>>9625105
I forgot all about that hilarious goth soup! I'm cracking up!

>>9625105
What is the white stuff - cheese? Tofu?

>>9623220
I love how Antique Beast still have a lot of the same/similar stuff on their site now as they did back then in 2002. They actually just updated that JSK design for 2017 (pic related), but if you asked they could probably still do the old one.

(To anyone who missed their site re-opening, my condolences. I snagged some pretty neat things but couldn't afford everything I wanted - did anyone else get anything?)

>>9625192
>>9625204

I have all 5 issues and can go looking for stuff some time later today. Are we just looking for the recipes?

I won't be able to post scans, though, just some quick photos with my phone. I'll try to minimise the reflection on the pages.

Does anyone have any experience dying their frills? I have a black/black JSK that seems a bit faded so I considered dyeing it but I'm terrified of accidentally ruining it. Any tips or suggestions?

>>9627497
Make sure you have the right dye, whether it's cotton or polyester. Check the thread used to sew the dress, it could be a cotton dress and still have polyester thread used to sew it. If it has polyester and cotton I'm not sure what you can do. I've used spray dyes to try and redye fading black green lace with some success, but never an entire garment.

Check all the decorations, scrutinize everything. I would pre soak the garment in water before dunking it into the dye so that it distributes more evenly. Watch a few tutorials before beginning, make sure you have a good space to work in, get a pot from salvation army or value village and do it outside. Try it on something you don't care about first and see how the results are. Good luck.

>>9627497
The basic rit dye is very weak. You would need two to three bottles and let a basic dress soak for a long time before rinsing. If the item is synthetic rit dyemore is decent but you need just as much dye for a dress.

>>9627497
If it's primarily cotton, get professional fiber reactive dyes. Union dyes like Rit aren't particularly light, wash or color fast. It's not terribly hard to mix and use fiber reactive dyes. I wouldn't be tooooo worried about the polyester thread >>9627504 mentions-- you're just redyeing the dress black, not changing the color, right? So your thread should already be black. You need a jar of black, calsolene oil and soda ash. There's loads of tutorials out there but, it's pretty much boils down to hot water in a tub plus your fabric, dye, oil and soda ash. Easy peasy.

>>9626310
Are you still there anon? If you could take photos it would be great.

>>9627504
>>9627514
>>9627629
Thanks for the tips! I'll do some more research before going for it but this is definitely helpful.

>>9628020
Have this exact jsk/op, sleeves are detachable to become a jsk. For some reason I'd never thought of putting a cutsew with it like this.

I scored some really great somewhat old items on mercari, 2002, 2003 type stuff and im super happy about it. far from my oldest piece but i think theyll be really wearable. i found out the OP i got is missing the matching apron, is it terrible to make a very similar one myself? i doubt ill ever find the exact one and im confident i can sew one pretty close in design

>>9629392
Not terrible at all, as long as it looks good of course. Congrats on your finds by the way, what did you get?

>>9623253
Thank you anon! I love suit sets in lolita, you don't see them that much now it seems.

>>9626036
Is it even possible to find anything from Antique Beast secondhand? Seems like I hardly ever see anything show up

>>9627642

Sorry, took the photos but they were accidentally set to max res and 4chan won't accept them. I'll edit them to a smaller size and upload them a bit later today.

I don't see any of the above recipes, though, so whoever wanted to translate them is clear to go. The Halloween recipes are Meringue Ghost and Trio of Cupcakes. The other recipe page is the one with roses (Rose Petal Jam, Candied Rose Petals and Rose Petal Punch).

>>9629406
ill post in the next thread when they arrive!

Baby has their classical series for reserve, their babydoll jsk, Cameron head bow, princess headdress, a bonnet, and half bonnet. In bright green, red, navy, and black and white.

I'm a bit shy so I thought I'd ask here first, anyone who is in the old school community group on facebook:
what type of posts are acceptable to post in that group?
>photos and details of items in old school collection?
>old school coords?
>questions about restoration of older pieces?
>asking for coord advice?

I'd really like to make posts like these but I feel so awkward and shy because the old school group seems very tight knit... I've been collecting old items and I'm very proud of my collection and I really want to share that happiness with everyone there!... Am I stupid to worry this much?

>>9623213
>>9623231
Sorry anon, those both say Meta for the jsk.

>>9630276
I'd like to see all of those posts and would for sure reply. Iirc everything goes except for sales posts, which have to see their own oldschool specific group.

>>9630276
I would love posts like that!

STOP - Velvet time: https://item.mercari.com/jp/m13857644374/

>>9631254
Also: this ridiculous Marble capelet: https://item.mercari.com/jp/m62870419298/

Super excited for cooler weather, what velveteen pieces do you guys own and how much of your wardrobe does it takes up?

>>9631971
I'm also excited. I own a pile of velveteen/flocky pieces (not all old school) that are dying for use. As far as velveteen goes, about 9/28 main pieces are velveteen, plus one accented with velveteen ribbons and one flocked. I've also a pile of accessories to go with the dresses.

>>9628038
What dress is it? I forget where I found the photo and the original caption probably said

>>9631971
I'm passionate about velveteen, velour and flocky so they make up a large part of my wardrobe.
And all of it old school.

I have:
3 velour BTSSB op's
1 velveteen Meta op
1 AP op with velveteen accents
3 velveteen Meta jsks
1 velveteen BTSSB jsk
1 velveteen JetJ jsk
1 velveteen Lief jsk
3 velveteen BTSSB skirts
1 velveteen Meta skirt
1 AATP skirt with flocky print
1 velveteen Lief skirt
2 velveteen BTSSB bustiers
3 velveteen BTSSB kc's
2 velveteen Meta kc's/headresses
1 AATP kc with flocky print
1 AP kc with velveteen accents
1 velveteen BTSSB bonnet

>>9632287
Do you have any pictures, anon? Velveteen is my heart.

>>9633908
Sure!
I just realised I fibbed though cause I'm such a dork, the AP, Lief & AatP Marcia OP technically aren't old school as they were released later but I wear them old school style if that makes sense?

>>9634584
great taste my dude.
I think we already chatted about the Baby velour op a few DD threads ago and I'm dying more every day I don't yet have it in my arms

>>9634737
Thank you.

Yes, that was me.
I've been keeping an eye out for it ever since cause we gulls have to help each other you know?
Hope you find it soon.

>>9634737
I saw it somewhere in white, mercari maybe?

>>9620544
The OP's image makes me so incredibly happy. I just got hit with a huge wave of nostalgia.

A comm member writes articles for KERA style now, she wrote something on the revival of Old School (in our country at least). Thought it would be interesting to share.

http://kerastyle.jp/fashion/9053

They've published an article about the revival of old school lolita on kera style, go old school!
http://kerastyle.jp/fashion/9053

>>9637653
>>9637654
Haha oops, great minds think alike? :p

>>9637653
Wasn't she also wearing old school during the Saturday at DMC in London? I cannot find her full coord pic, can anyone post it and tell me which dress she was wearing? (red with an apron)

>>9637699
Ah I believe I met her! She was wearing Pastel a la Mode by AP

>>9637720
Ah yes, that's the one, thanks!

>>9637654
Aww, this is written by a girl from my comm (Liv), she's a really nice girl irl and I think it's awesome she gets to write articles for Kera.
It seems there are quite a few in my (Dutch) comm that really like old school (myself included).
Next time they hold an old school meet I hope I can go to it!

Anyone know of any good oldschool Lolita instagrams?

>>9637654
>http://kerastyle.jp/fashion/9053
This is so cute and I realize they were probably also going for that old school street snap feel, but holy fuck they have the worst posture ever and it just makes it look bad -3- the girl with the cutest coord (in red) looks unbearably weird in posture.

>>9638338
check the old school tag? as well maybe tags of resellers of older items like wunderwelt maidenclothing etc to see other bought? i post old school daily wear but im not about to out myself b/c comm would no approve

Are the baby babydoll jsk re-releases considered old school? I have one but don't know what year it's from.

>>9626036
The fact that AB's aesthetic hasn't changed all that much is part of why I love and support the brand.

>>9638488
Yes because the design was originally released in 2001, it's inherently old school.

I bought a stained jsk, they were really faint but a lot of them. I got the jsk wet and laid it in the sun on top of a blanket. Flipped it after like 2 hours. Left it a couple more hours and the stains seem gone. That usually works really well for stains that aren't ink, makeup, or deodorant. I usually do an oxyclean soak, but the shoulder strap elastic is already weakened and I didn't want to accelerate that.

>>9638459
We tried to get our grumpiest street snap face one. I'll tell girl in red she looks cute, thanks!

Can anyone confirm the bust and waist measurements of this JSK? Lolibrary is missing this info but I imagine there are gulls who own this dress. Thanks in advance~

>>9625092
I'm pretty fukken sure that second from left in the back row is Fumiko from Enchantlic Enchantilly.

>>9640456
So it is! Most kawaii in the lineup tbqh.

>>9640615
>AP blackxwhite sweet as a gothic lolita example even though the text lists actual gothic brands

Glad you scanned this though anon, sometimes people flat-out don't believe me when I tell them punk was once more relevant than classic.

>>9640624
>Misako wanted to be married by 30
Oh dear.

Also does "one's an S and the other's an M" really mean what I think it does? I've only seen it used for actual S&M in yaoi/yuri manga.

Also Midori wanted to marry Misako? Cute.

>>9640624
curry girl is so charming wth

>>9640741
>"one's an S and the other's an M"

Also in manga, but I usually see it used to mean the "S" is more assertive and outspoken, while the "M" is quieter and passive. Not necessarily that the relationship involves any kind of whips or dungeons or BDSM at all.

>>9640741
>>9640988
S/M is pretty common from what I can tell (in that it's in Japanese pop culture stuff) in a way to tell someone's personality. It doesn't involve actual BDSM at all, it's just a fun personality type thing akin to Type A/Type B, etc.

>>9640624
Whatever happened to Yukiko amyways? She was my favorite model!

Thought you gulls might be interested in this AP JSK and headdress set from (I believe) before 2002:

Someone please buy this before I do:

Found this Cornet OP for 12$ on bid (nobody seems to be interested so far).
Thinking of snatching it up, wdyt?

>>9650935
Is the low price meant to attract bidders, or is it due to damage? It's so cute, if it's in good condition I say go for it!

>>9650935
Beautiful~
Go for it and coord it well! I would jump at this but I have to save money now

>>9650935
please bid on it so I don't

>>9650935
Y!j or LM?

>>9640616
Nah that's An Nguyen. Idk how involved non-American English speaking lolitas were involved in the English GLBs.

Thanks for sharing though. I only got the 1st and 2nd issues, and was reluctant to get the third/wedding issue because it was damaged and overpriced when I saw it at my local Borders (rip). I still wonder who ended up buying it.

>>9651250
Here, have a link. I think I wouldn't do it justice after all!

>>9651265

Whoops, sorry for the misinformation. I haven't gotten around to buying the so pretty, very rotten book yet and don't really know of either girl.

Sometimes I wonder at my past self buying all 5 volumes of GLB. I'm kind of sad it didn't get enough sales to continue, though, I liked having lolita content in English.

>>9620544
Speaking of aprons... The Black Ribbon released several oldschool aprons this week.

Anyone into old school prints?

Congratulations whomever bought this and ripped it from my cart during checkout earlier

Sorry anon that was me :( Will let you know if it doesn’t suit me

>>9656486
That would be awesome! If you do keep it please be sure to at least post some coord phots here so i can at least see it cooRdinated! Its suvh a lovely dress! And the red color has always been my favorite!

>>9639860
If you're in that photo then it's pretty safe to say: holy shit, learn to put make up on better and invest in a good quality (see not pumpkin coloured) wig.

You guys look absolutely god awful. If you guys genuinely cared for each other at all you would have told each other to adjust your hair and face before going outside looking like a convention for Uncle Fester look-alikes.

Going for a "grumpy" look has nothing to go with how bad you guys look.

Leftmost chick, either invest in a hairbrush or a wig and those bangs are just making her face look more square and ogre like. Maybe some makeup can help with that very square and mannish face. The bangs and headress just make it look like her head is too small for her body.

Second from the left: too old? Man? Seriously looks like a creepy ageplayer. Granny's makeup not helping.

Girl in red: good coord but for the love of god, make up. She looks like a blobfish. Also, if you were trying to look grumpy, why did she decide to go for Down syndrome twitch?

Rightmost: again, please learn to apply make up properly, and an orange wig on her skin tone is just not working. Also, grumpy =\= constipated. What is with her face.

In this day and age of makeup and hair tutorials galore, there is absolutely no reason for you guys to look that bad.

Why would you spend so much time on your coords if you couldn't even bother with your faces?

Damn this shit is embarrassing for us.

>>9656538
Nayrt but you realise lolita is clothing and not a costume and you don't have to be plastered in perfect, flawless cosplay tier makeup, and that it's clothes that regular people wear, right? have you even looked in a jfashion magazine and seen all the girls with mussed, wind-swept hair and imperfect makeup because they are regular humans? have you looked at street snaps before which they are clearly taking inspiration from?

I'm all for critiquing lolita but jfc armchair lolitas complaining that lolitas look like regular people instead of photoshopped-to-hell models like risa and misako all the time is fucking stupid.

>>9656584
Stop being a weeb for a second and understand that most normal people take at least a look in the mirror before going out.

If you think running a brush through your hair and covering up under eye circles is cosplay level make up... I don't know what to tell you.

If you look bad in regular clothes, attaching yourself to a niche fashion isn't going to magically make you not look unkempt and fuggly.

Lolita isn't some hug group for the awkward and gross chicks no one lose wants to hang around.

>>9656587
Calling me a weeb because I say lolitas are regular people with flaws like everyone else...
They're all wearing makeup and look relatively put-together. I dunno what to tell you, anon. You have really high standards...?

>>9656591
Because it's weebs that seem to really struggle with taking care of themselves when it comes to even the most basic grooming.

Running a brush through your hair, opting for a more flattering wig, or just using the most absolutely minimal make up to look somewhat put together shouldn't be high standards.

These aren't jeans and a t shirt. Why put on a well coorded outfit then ignore your face? Your face and hair are part of your coord. Ignore those and it reflects on your coord. If your face doesn't look presentable, your coord is not well put together.

>>9656591
Alright, let me correct that, minimal make up beyond smearing mismatched foundation all over yourself and maybe, *maybe* opting for grandmas favourite lipstick.

You can find tones of great tutorials on make up from threads here to Gothic and Lolita a Bible to youtube. There really is no excuse.

>>9656597
They have makeup on though. Where is this weeb stuff coming from? Why are you calling me and also the people in the article weebs?
Have you never been in an unflattering photo?

Grumpy expressions don't necessarily entail hunching over like a gremlin. Get better posture, otherwise you're going to have a bad back when you're older.

Risa and Misako both look good irl tho, you're just pinning other (actually pretty) people down to try and make yourself feel better about a bad pic

just spotted this ancient AP skirt for the petite among us

Didn't the fantastic dolly girl have her dress get damaged, and dyed it to salvage it?

I don't like gobelin or anything but I always appreciate when gulls post their finds.

I looked through all of the pages on Lolibrary, under the search conditions of 'Innocent World JSK Black' and couldn't find an image of it. It may be this one though, as it fits the description, meaning that the dress should be from 2001 https://lolibrary.org/items/iw-high-waist-switching-jsk-0

Whoever got this beautiful thing, please cherish it ;____;

While I'm afraid of owning velvet, this is one of the only dresses I'd make an exception.

Didn't check if it's still avilable but atleast in the morning WW Lacemarket account had Pretty/AP op up. The tag has the bold, simple lettering: not sure if which one it is though. Not my style but I wish old school gull gets it and gives it some well deserved love.

looks like corduroy and not velveteen...

Nope, it's velveteen.
