/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Pic stolen from the sub-reddit. Person insinuates that lolita is racist because she's "never seen" any other lolitas with her exact skin tone (why does this even matter?). Most embarrassing behavior.

My lolita conspiracy theory is that the fashion died when the Japanese secondhand market dried up. If newer lolitas see brand for $500+ secondhand, they'll just take the easy route and run to taobao instead. They'll never develop a sense for quality/style because taobao is all varying amounts of tacky. New releases aren't much better since they are all becoming more expensive but worse quality. I'll admit that if I was starting the fashion in 2024, I probably wouldn't start at all.
