Kamikaze Girls is a great movie. It was nice to see it mentioned here!

lolita is pretty shame it's overpriced. tho a thinner/less ruffly gyaru combo/interpretation would be cool

wonder if they make 'summer lolita' and stuff considering how hot it can get/some cons being during summer but other than some fancy afternoon tea/cafe place i can't imagine walking comfortably in public like that (as well as spilling tho i guess with thick clothes i imagine hopefully it wouldn't be too messy or hot foods would be less of a problem if it's a thick layer)

i wonder if these days if lolita is more or less expensive with all the other trends out there. either it's pricey b/c it's fancy and popular, or even more pricey /because/ not a lot of ppl buy it as much anymore, so ppl have to charge more to make up for the diff, cosplayers/tailors aside. wonder how much the author used refs, be interesting if they got a royalty/paid to use a specific design

Kamikaze Girls is a great movie. It was nice to see it mentioned here!

is that the one with the scene of "i bought something not cute for the first time but i made it cute" and basically bedazzled/made it all pink and cutesy of some dumbbell/gym weight?

The quick synopsis in the translator notes sounds actually pretty cool. I might look it up later.

Chapter's title is pretty much hers

Author definitely not holding back on expressing her love to lolita fashion (something she's been sharing quite a lot on Twitter)

I think you can still get it on American home video from Discotek Media. Good flick, yeah. It was produced by Baby The Stars Shine Bright, one of the bigger lolita labels, and I wanna say the guy who runs the company has a little cameo role.

Diet? Exact weight aside I don't think tummies are fully flat without abs or being underweight but they're pretty skinny by American standards lol even when I was 14 I don't think I ever had a flatter tummy but usually these kinda series have them giving up after two months

Altho some gym yoga outfits would be pretty cute if not some healthy but good looking dishes

Enjoy! Many people (me included) have written college essays on the this movie and its queer subtext.

I do not remember sadly (perhaps a sign I should rewatch) but it sounds like something miss lolita would do.

[keatsta]

this chapter reminded me of this manga, which I really enjoyed: https://mangadex.org/title/a4b8437c-ea32-42f9-96da-b3a6b53dabbd/kitai-fuku-ga-aru

it got nuked off of MD but i'm sure you can track it down.

Oh I LOVE when a manga mentions lolita fashion!! They do a good job mentioning both sides of lolita discourse (wanting to stay true to the rules but also bring in new people) without outright shaming one idea or another, which I really appreciate. I'm not actually a person who dresses in lolita, but I've always been a fan of the fashion and I know many people who dress in the style. This chapter is easily my fav now and the dresses were soo pretty! Also, I peep the Kamikaze Girl's mention and almost squealed!! 🩷
