The thread before last was a pretty good containment thread and even had a decent discussion going. Let's see if we can do it again and keep sissy derailment to a minimum.

Yeah good luck anon. At least you started with a better image I guess.

>> No.8713656

I'll start off with a question I asked in the last one to the anon in the mouse au chocolat(?) coord.

I find it quite hard to get a feel of size proportion in terms of lolita fashion just by lurking in shops or finished coords since males have different body proportions in most cases.

My question:
What are your meassured sizes: bust-waist-hips, height, shoulder width and maybe your weight?

How do you deal with your individual proportions to pass as a lolita as good as possible?

Where do you buy for your size? Did you encounter any specific problems?

Feedback on finished coords?

Reference pics appreciated!

Musee du chocolat

99-78-95 5'10 175lbs. I'm kinda a fatty-chan

Buy stuff that fits. Honestly the shape of lolita is pretty flattering to guys bodies because it offsets our large shoulders.

I fit a lot of brands. I've got a lot of AP, a couple btssb, lief, krad lanrete, and elegy stuff. Blouses and boleros are taobao or innocent world. Shoes are taobao. Unless you're huge lolita is pretty forgiving with sizes. Except for OPs anyway.

Feedback?

>How do you deal with your individual proportions to pass as a lolita as good as possible?
In terms of sizing I just avoid OPs with super fitted sleeves and cuts that are shorter than 95cm because there are some things that underskirts can't lengthen without looking awful. Generally I avoid dresses with any detailing around the shoulders or going horizontally across the bust. Honestly I'm more concerned about my face and feet at this point. Lolita-appropriate shoes in Sasquatch sizes are hard to find.

>Where do you buy for your size? Did you encounter any specific problems?
Most of what I have right now is Baby, but I'm slowly adding in more VM and MM. Blouses are mostly taobao/vintage because I'm cheap. Being relatively thin helps, because my only real concern is length and whether or not I like the design.

Oh and for the remaining questions:

I avoid OPs and skirts, they tend to not look very good on me. I like Innocent World long-length JSKs, they usually look pretty good on me. Otherwise, I wear underskirts to lengthen shorter pieces. I also use wristcuffs to "lengthen" the sleeves of blouses which have sleeves too short for me.

As for things which fit me, I love longer IW pieces, and anything from Taobao which can be custom sized. Sleeve length tends to be the biggest problem for me, so I've stopped buying non-custom-sized blouses.

>> No.8719315

If you have broad shoulders, get things that emphasize the center or bottom like legs/shoes or wear a cardigan or something. High waist looks frumpy and fat on me so I go with low waist, but just try it out for yourself.

I recommend experimenting with what looks good and flattering for your body/build type and building around that first, instead of forcing a dress because you like it.

Where do you guys buy your underskirts? I need to get one for myself.

Cardigans are a terrible idea. Knits cling to the shape of whatever it's put on and that's the last thing that a broad-shouldered person needs. Fitted sleeves and details that break up the shoulder are your best bet.

>>8719894
From personal experience and from looking at things like pic related. Cardigans aren't generally structured enough to not conform to the sharper angles of male shoulders. Boleros could work if the fabric has no stretch, but as a general rule I'd stay the hell away from knits.

Also finding lolita-appropriate cardigans that actually fit a man's shoulders properly (i.e. not stretched to hell and back) isn't that easy.

I would echo all the advice previously about staying away from OPs, especially short sleeve OPs. Unless you are super lucky with your build, the arms and hands can really stand out if you are a guy so short sleeves usually aren't flattering at all.

I'm a bit lucky where I can actually "fit" some unshirred AP and BTSSB, but it definitely isn't comfortable for extended periods. Most 1/4 shirring JSKs are super comfy though.

Blouses are my biggest problem because the arms are almost always too short. I do have a blouse from AP in a size L that fits my arms well but most blouses that fit my shoulders and bust never are long enough for my arms.

The struggle is real.

I would say that at first, I wouldn't purchase any mid to high end products other than things like eyeshadow and maybe a few lipsticks (you can get most of those things at the drug store to begin with; I like Better than Sex mascara but imo mascara is mascara)-things that you really want to have nice color pigmentation. You should also look into getting lipliner, bronzer (or a contour/highlight kit), highlighter (if you go the bronzer route), an eyelash curler, depending on your eyebrows-eyebrow pencil/eyebrow grooming tools, and false lashes. Imo, false lashes are a really important part of my look, because they really help feminize the entire thing.

If you want stuff from Sephora, then I recommend just sticking with Sephora brand items to start. You'll get good quality, but the price will be lower so you can learn with it more and not waste the good stuff (that's usually what they have gift set sales on, too). However, there are plenty of cheap brands that have surprisingly good product. I have a lot of high-end lipsticks, but I will say with complete confidence that the Rimmel Kate series lipsticks work better than most Mac lipsticks, and are only $4-5 each. Do some research for lists that people have compiled of "cheap" stuff that is surprisingly good to use. Nyx is another great one to play around with before you jump into more expensive stuff.

Hi /cgl/. I don't post much on here, but I need some dating advice about a brolita.

I've been dating a guy for the last two months and he's invited me to come along to an event called International Lolita Day on Saturday. He texted a coord he's wearing for International Lolita Day and I blushed. I didn't know that he was into this lolita stuff though I should have known about it since he has girl stuff such as a Sailor Moon compact and Rilakkuma stuff in his bedroom.

I feel extremely put off by this and I want to dump him in a not very nice way. What should I do?

Just give it a shot, at least. It might be embarrassing to go dressed normally so ask him if he's got a spare dress for you. Try your best to have fun with it and see how it goes.

Is he at least cute? If not, just don't make much of it and laugh at how funny he looks. I dunno, as someone who isn't one, a brolita seems like a rare catch and I'd at least give him a chance.

Don't do anything rash, that's terrible.

you need a proper blouse but avoid anything with puffed sleeves and a high neck. A smaller peter pan collar or collarless with 3/4 sleeves is ideal for minimising broad shoulders. Failing that, use a lolita appropriate bolero.

It's pretty all over the place. I have a few great lolita friends, but I get the feeling that a lot of people in my comm view me a bit suspiciously, no matter how long I'm there or how many burando coords I show up in. Within your comm, SJWs can be great or terrible, depending on how much they believe the words coming out of their mouth. I find it best to just talk to lots of people and let them talk about themselves, and eventually I find people who I have things in common with.

Like many lolitas, I'm a weeaboo, so that helps. Otherwise, not really.

Yup, but only with a small number. I don't think that's really unusual though, most lolitas seem to find a regular group and stick with it.

Hey everyone, maybe you can help me.

I'm after something similar to picture related but not really sure where to start.

I've had a look around Taobao, but haven't had much luck finding what I'm after.

Currently I'm considering getting the L087 from Bodyline as it seems like a decent place to start but I'm 1-2cm out on some of the measurements on the 2L, but my girlfriend thinks she could easily pull some of the stitching out and adjust it to fit.

What do you all think?

>> No.8794299

>>8793245
The fabric on that Bodyline piece looks suspiciously shiny, and that wouldn't be very good. Maybe find some worn pics?

Have you considered ordering from Surface Spell on Taobao? I think they do custom sizing, and their pieces look great in person.

Alice and the Pirates has also made some nice OPs and JSKs you could use for this, and might fit someone who is a 2L in bodyline. Keep an eye on Closet Child and Y!J.

>> No.8794835

I've had a look on a few Taobao stores but I don't seem to be able to find anything I'm after - though I might be doing it wrong.

Seems like a good start. :)

Yes, I like clothes lolitas (I'm not gay). The lolita style for boys is interesting. I like bloomers and petticoats and many ties. What is the problem? I'm 20 years old, I can still use lolita for 5 years. My size helps me be a lolita imperceptible.

Other than that I'd recommend working out your measurements and seeing if there is anything on Bodyline that fits (everything item has its measurements listed on its page, there is no consistency to M, L, 2L etc.). They're really easy to buy from and the prices aren't too bad so they make a good start.
