I'm so excited for this print, it's adorable

>>8398627
Agreed. This is literally everything I've ever wanted and more.

>>8398622
Woah, I want to see more of this. I looked on their blog and website and didn't see anything. Where did they post this photo and are there more?

>>8398632
No more pics. She just posted this on her facebook and said soon.

>>8398632
They posted this preview on Facebook about an hour ago. There are no other details yet that I've seen.

>>8398634
I'm going to be stalking her page so hard now.

>>8398637
If she posts anything more, immediately post it to this thread anon. I NEED THIS DRESS.

wish more lolitas thought like collageanon. her guro coords are great but i want to see awesome things on a person with makeup and hair styling...

>>8398644

>>8398651
imagine this one with hardcore candy-red shironuri

burning is underrated

>>8398668
I want to see a drowned themed coord. With blue or purple lipstick, and a little bit of blue powder on your face to make you look drowned. Maybe a blue, sea themed jsk or a sailor jsk. Maybe have a not very puffy petti to make it seem waterlogged. And faux dripping makeup.

This thread makes me giddy. If there could be some sort of coord contest on here to actually make this shit happen and not just be talked about, then I'd be so happy. I feel that not many would be willing to do it, though, in fear of criticism.

I want cause-of-death themed coordinates. Any ideas?
>Asphyxiation= purple makeup(lipstick, eyeshadow, blush) white, rope or bow tied around neck
>Poisoning(?)= No ideas
> heart attack=heart themed accessories (realistic and cutesy)
> and I'm all out of ideas.
Any more?

>>8398732
I'd say sallow green-yellow eye/lip makeup with super pale foundation for poisoning, with print themes with snakes and apples.

>been thinking about that one for a while

>>8398742
Smaart. Thanks anon.

>>8398742
Apples, yes. Snakes is getting a bit too Biblical for me on that one.

Perhaps a print that's comprised entirely of beautiful, but toxic plants? Maybe black and white field guide illustrations?

>>8398749
I like that idea more than snakes, but hey, venomous snakes would be an interesting thing to explore. At least with just snake scales. The toxic plants mixed with scales would be cool.

>>8398760
Snakes for guro would be great. Just not with apples (at least for me, I feel like it would invite more use of bloody Madonna crowns and crosses because old testament imagery isn't nearly as iconic/well known).

There should be a guro dress with bloody weapons printed on it. I'd buy that.

>>8398668

>>8398798
That poor dress

>>8398749
That dress you're describing is pretty much exactly what I want in my life. My boyfriend bought a page out of a field guide book, complete illustrations of different deadly plants that will be used to design fabric, to be made into a rorita ensemble. Now to find a way to do all that.

>>8398622
>people getting excited for this without even seeing the full print or dress construction
If this will be like their frumpy, tassel-tits albino series then count me out from the impending disappointment.

>>8398732
Poison bottles and farmacy themes for poison

>>8399052
She only let this one picture out, so this could be a huge letdown, anon. I'm willing to put my faith in her. Also, tassel-tits? I need to see this.

Captcha: Select drinks. All I had was beer and Listerine.

>>8399052
The illustration style already looks reakky tacky. The construction doesn't look too bad though their bodices seem to have a weird finish.

>>8399038
You sound like you don't wash your dresses

>>8399687
I guess the anon means the tassels on the ends of the bow on the blouses, like in this photo.

Idk, I personally loved the Albino Accord release and thought the dress was well constructed, but eh, to each their own.

>>8399706
Oh okay. I like this, but it's a bit too many tassels.

>>8399712
Yeah, I agree with you. Elegy does everything custom though, so you could have asked her to get rid of all the tassels in your order. I personally asked for no tassels on the JSK!

>>8399714
Do you have a pic of how it turned out? I loved that jsk but passed because of the tassels. I'm sure it's amazing without.

>>8399715
Crap, I'd love to take a picture for you, but I'm not currently at home. I know some other anons did the same with their Elegy releases though, so hopefully another anon could post a photo?

If this thread is still up when I get back I'll try and post a photo for you!

>>8399722
Sure thing! I'll stand by.

>guro lolita thread
YES, oh man this is fantastic, does anybody have any bone motif cords? preferably with dark colours?

>>8399052
Albino Accord looks really pretty to me construction wise. The tassels at the bottom of the skirt are a bit too lampshade but I liked them on the blouse sleeves and ribbon.

>>8400122
not a fan of those tights...maybe if they didn't have the green and purple

>>>8398632
It always bothers me that her toes are cut off because otherwise this photo is really good

>>8400127
I'm not nearly as bothered about them as I probably should be. If she added a bit more green and purple to other places in the coord I think it would look cute in a kitschy sort of way.

>>8400036

>>8400248
>>8400253
Where's this corset from, exactly? I keep seeing pictures of it and it always seems different, I have no clue if they are available to purchase in different designs by the original designer, if they are rippoffs or if people just grabbed that skeleton pic and make their own shit. Sauce? I kinda like it but at this point I have no idea where to find the original or if at this point I could just make my own.

>>8400306
have you googled "skeleton corset"?

>>8400253
>that corset
i love it so much, i'd be very much hype to use it in a coord

>>8400306
restyle.pl
they don't have the skeleton ones anymore. they of the other ones though.

>>8400347
Yeah. When anyone complains about skeletights worn in coords, I always post this pic.

>>8400355
people complain about them? i think they can work if done right

>>8400306
The one that's a belt in the first pic is restlye, the one that's an actual corset is from Louise Black

>>8400389
nice

>>8398732
>>8398742
I never considered adding effects makeup before beyond the obvious fake blood that's always done in guro but now it's all I want in life. I want to do a ghost coord now, make use of the veil trend and do a Victorian mourning veil.

>tfw live near so many closed-down sanitariums and psych facilities because I guess the American midwest is where everybody shipped their sick and their crazy
>tfw current dorm room is former nursing home and psych facility and they didn't even remodel most of the basement so it's still a 1980s hospital down there, even the old signs and employee lockers are still there
>tfw the only thing I'm missing from the ultimate guro photoshoot now is a photographer

On a related thought: what about urban legend/horror story themed coords?
>Bloody Mary in an all white coord with a torn-up face hidden by a big bonnet
>Super-sweet pink hime coord with red accents, maybe one of those OTT sashes that are so popular now that says "Queen" on it for a Carrie coord
>Edward Gorey's Ghastlies themed outfit group
>All-white or all-black coord with single red ribbon tied around neck for "The Red Ribbon" (or an OTT classic Marie Antoinette coord, I guess)

>>8400413
>>tfw current dorm room is former nursing home and psych facility and they didn't even remodel most of the basement so it's still a 1980s hospital down there, even the old signs and employee lockers are still there
>anon has ideas for coords based on awesome horror stories

can we be friends
can i come visit you
i do not live near you but
please

>>8400424
Hell yeah

>are you my soulmate, fellow guro-loving lolita-chan

>>8400429
awesome
i'll be right over

>guro-loving ouji-kun
>now dead set on making a guro ouji coord this year

>emphasis on dead

>>8400413
>>8398732
Cause-Of-Death anon here with more ideas!
> Rotting corpse themed coord= Ripped, old, plain bodyline dress, dirty, dried fake blood in some spots, instead of green painted skin, have splotchy skins, make face look sallow, everything dirty, messy hair, and dark eye makeup
>possessed by demon= White out eye contacts/dead, demonic contacts, pale and veiny skin, claw-esque chipped nails(fake) covered in dried fake blood (ben-nye scab blood would be perfect), ripped, dirty white dress, dirty white socks and mary janes, fake cuts all over skin
>Beheaded= fake blood all over neck, pale veiny face, blood from neck drips onto top of dress, Marie Antoinette accessories, and head accessories in shambles.

Also you have no idea how hard I thought about these.

All I want in my life is some sort of guro manga artist collab.

>>8399700
I'm just thinking about how long photoshoots take, the fact that that water is most definitely warm/hot, that it's red... not just the fact it's wet anon. Be you, just be a little less you.

I think s creepy mushroom coord a-la the last of us or that one episode of Hannibal with the mushrooms would be super awesome
also, cause of death coords
>frozen- white eyelashes, pale makeup, possible shimmer or crystals or something? Pale blue and white colour scheme, one of those longer length dresses and maybe like, classy ear muffs
Not cause of death but 7 deadly sins coords would be cool.

>>8400524
Seven deadlhy sins cords would be amazing I have a few I deas.
>greed= Hime with tons of gold. And all brand if possible.
>Sloth= All white, bonnet, bloomers showing, low puff petti, cute sleep mask
>Glutton= (sidenote; would look good on a fatty-chan)Sweet: Ap candy/food themed dress, candy-esque glitter around mouth, food/candy accessories, Maybe a cake headpiece. Classic: classy silverware/food themed dress, plate and silverware themed accessories, fake food crumbs on face,
>Wrath= Blood-covered black dress, black shoes with fake blood on bottom area and soles, hands covered with fake blood and or ben-nye scab blood, black/red contacts, cat-eye, red makeup, fake sharp teeth, cherry syrup in mouth for blood, fake blood dripping from mouth area, angrily drawn eyebrows
>lust= red cage skirt with black petti, Red corset, black blouse, red lipstick, really thick falsies, dark eye-makeup, red lolita heels, lacy socks, wavy wig, peignoir,
>will continue in another post
Captcha: select all food. All the food I have: Artichokes and a soup

>>8400550
>Envy= all I can think of is green,and not an actual idea
>Pride= queen/royalty themed dress, golden heeled shoes, maddona crown, veil, peignoir, mini-crown, wand, 'kawaii-eye' makeup, maybe a little beauty mark under the lip, pink lipstick, obvious brand, golden bag, cream parasol, white and gold socks.

>>8400524
>7 deadly sins coords would be cool.
h. Naoto's got you covered. a lot of the Naoto Seven/ Seven Deadly Sins stuff is not all that lolita, but items could be worked into a guro coord. they sometimes release sin-specific items (Greed, Lust, etc.) as well.

>pic related, a Greed item

>>8400590
>small print says "greed"
>add cardigan and wildly poofy/frilly skirt for spoiled heiress look

>mfw i really like the idea of a guro themed lolita coord but it rarely is ever done well and ends up looking like hot topic
why even live ;_;

>>8400617
If you like it, do it! I believe in you anon! What theme are you going for? Because making it intricate and very thought-about helps it looks good.

>>8400624
i think the general theme of rot would improve the look? neutrals, marbling, macabre grotesque with little to no bleeding

perhaps it is a matter of taste

>>8400639
That sounds amazing.

>>8400550
I like this..

>>8400648
Thank you!

>>8400550
>>8400524
>>8400584
Envy:
>The most common dream items every Lolita seems to want (Puppet Circus, Cat's Tea Party, Marionette In My
Closet, Misako's Favorite Ribbon, Holy
Lantern, etc) in a complete set (it works more as a concept thing than as a coordinate, though)
OR
>Replica everything
OR
>Twinning with one twin in head-to-toe brand (maybe going as Greed?) and the other in the matching replicas

>>8400316
Yes I have, that's why I said I wasn't sure what was the source anymore, considering I kept seeing different vendors and websites selling it or similar.

>>8400355
Oh, dang. Thank you! I'll check their website nevertheless.

>>8400367
I didn't notice the one in the picture was a belt, the corset is even prettier imo. I had already gone through Louise Black's etsy but the corset's gone as well. Oh well. Thank you anyhow!

This could be toned down a little of course.

>>8403978
Would also make for a great print in my opinion. Source is Toru Kamei.

>>8400486
warm water and a red cotton dress should be absolutely fine anon. I'm sure it lived.

>you will never have drug-fueled sex with any of the wonderful weirdos in this thread

It's a bad feel

>>8403979

I'd be all over this.

>>8403979
This would look so fucking cool.

>>8404000
>>8404002
Yess. Here's another one with less skulls and moons. Sadly I can't think of any brand that would make something like this and not ruin it with the construction (looking at you JetJ).

>>8403978
I would love to try this, but it probably looks like shit irl

>>8403979
want.

>>8403997
Where you live? I think I've got opiates and coke somewhere around here.
I live in Cali, of course I have weed too.

>>8404012
Haha saving this as a background. Have anymore?

>>8404338
Texas, sad day

I really love this cuff, although I have no idea how you'd work it into a coord. Haunted library? Something with medical texts? I don't know.

>>8404411
Looks egyptian.

I started making collages inspired by this thread and now I need to find more occasions guro could be worn for because I want to do all of them.

Drowning-themed coord featuring Ophelia, needs to be paired with hair combed through with a lot of gel to make it look wet and pale blue-purple makeup.

>>8404418
>egyptian
ugh.

Somehow I think something like this would work really well with a rot coord. might just be me though.

>>8404418

>>8400550
>fake food crumbs
>not just taking it as an excuse to eat like nobody's watching all day

>>8404794
deets please?

Guro ouji: 1930s pinstriped silk suit with bullet holes + makeup to look dead

>>8398661
Girl sweet

>>8404973
i do not understand your comment

>>8404987
I typed guro sweet and my phone auto corrected it.

>>8404992
got it.

given how often "ouija" items come up when i search for "ouji" (since people pronounce it weejee), i would like to do a spirit board/seance-style guro outfit. a planchette pendant, perhaps socks like these (but without edgy phrases), and ghostly makeup.

>>8405006
a cobwebby Alice Auaa "statement" item, some white colored contacts, a ratty wig...

>>8404942
Nice
