/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Last one was fun, let's keep it going.

Some interesting topics brought up in the last thread

>Is Lolita too strict nowadays in regards to pressure for coords to be extremely matchy-matchy and photoshoot-ready instead of wearable fashion?

>Old western designers/known lolitas/blogs/sites

Feel free to share coords, old photos, or whatever.

Does anyone have more examples of the early stages of the fashion, pre-2001 photos seem to be rare as hens teeth.

Have some 1998 lolita (this is even much too far back for my decrepit oldfag self). I also love how it shows that the 'new interpretation of the oldschool headdress' look that people mention that we see now is a bunch of baloney.
