>This bothers me a lot, and I am always upset to try something on and realize the vest is made to fit a skirt under it; the waistline is extremely unflattering for men unless they can pull off some sort of shota coord. We need a better name for that,
you could just say "childlike," it is how lolitas refer to certain sack dresses. it would be 100% better to keep "shota" far away from ouji discussion. lolita suffers enough from its loli connotation.

as for the waist, i think the prime periods of mens fashion that ouji designers draw from (Rococo, Regency, Victorian) have defined waists. ideally, i think a jacket or long gilet for ouji would have a subtler flare than one made for lolita, but i enjoy swooshing too much to do away with it and just have a straigt, tight line.
