It's an expensive, frivolous, completely aesthetic based luxury hobby. I don't understand what is so wrong or controversial about this concept. I don't understand this entitled attitude. You can't out-coord poorly made pieces. There is nothing wrong with being looking out for pieces by brands who consistently put out good quality items. Something tells me you don't actually appreciate the small detail work like laces and buttons.

Taobao blouses aren't "similar." They look like it from a distance sure but up close, they don't compare. If you just want to dress up like a princess for your photo shoot where you can work the camera I guess they work. But in real life, everyone is going to notice this cheap, sloppily sewn on lace. Lolita is not a costume and we should not be wearing things made with costume quality materials.

Most of all, it's sad that you think all the time, skill and materials put into designing and creating these beautiful items are only worth $20 at best.

and if all you care about is "coording skills" and you're one of those that complains about how every plain, well rounded lolita oufit isn't experimental enough for you, please leave and do some other alt-fashion
