New Larme thread
Anyone have the latest episode issue?
Aside from that, any and all Larme but winter pics especially appreciated.
Also I want to address anon's concern about Risa because I genuinely like the girl and I haven't seen her irl like this anon
>>>8773709 (You)
>That's a very old pic. I saw her irl and she's very skinny, her face was looking a little gaunt too. But she's still stunning, her makeup was on point. I follow her since 2011 and it's crazy how her face changed.
>>8790291*Furisode not episode, spell check sabotage.
>>8790293
This is what my face and cheeks look like right now... Gives me inspiration to lose some weight and be as gorgeous as Risa is at the moment
I'm getting married y'all. can you gulls post some lolita or kawaii wedding inspo?
usually, when you make a thread like this, you have to do a pic dump.

Post tutorials or questions about general sewing
I have a rokku dress I want to take up, however its knitted with fairly chunky wool, how do i go about this with out it unravelling?
I was thinking of sewing a line of zig zag before cutting but would this work?
>>8808685
How would you alter the middle one for shirring? Do you have a graphic for this
>>8808685
I have a fairly general question about sewing - tried /diy/ earlier but they mentioned that /cgl/ might be a good fit:
I was wondering how much of an investment, time-wise, it would be to pick it up as a skill. I buy clothing quite rarely - part of the reason being that reasonably priced stuff either a) fits terribly, b) falls apart in under a year, or c) both.
I'm not really at the income bracket where I can afford to pay a tailor for practically every piece of clothing I own, so I figure this could...

I think we could use another one of these.
General discussion on fabric suggestions, fabric care, and where to purchase different types of fabric can go here.
OP here. I will start:
Where do you guys buy wool? The fabric stores where I live are shit.
100% wool would be ideal but I can settle for blends as long as they are good quality.
How expensive is it to work with leather? I want to make leather boot covers instead of using vinyl but I'm kind of a poorfag.
I can probs afford the leather itself but tools etc. are another story.
>>8806898
All I have is JoAnn and there is wool in only two sections in the store: wool felt and a few of the suitings. Some of the wool suitings do go up to 100% and they are super nice (compared to the other scratchy stuff), but colors are very limited (black/navy/brown/gray only) and I can't think of any project needing it.
New Undertale thread!
Previous one >>No.8804783
So anons, how are your cosplays coming? What cons are you all going to wear them to?
And just how deep does the bad MTT cosplay go?
Oh woops link to old thread is being a dope.
>>8804783
There's the old thread. Also anons I have seen a lot of bad undertale cosplay... a lot of bad MTT's especially. But I think what gets me the most is the bad Sans cosplay. I've stared into the void /cgl/, and the void stared back... with this.

found a video of that one papyrus from Ikkicon
It's a little hard to understand him because of the mask, but he was pretty cool in person.
>>8822814
I'm so surprised as how many people paint their faces for Sans and Papyrus. I honestly expected more people to go the Halloween skeleton mask route.

I feel like shit right now because I just spent $120 of birthday money on an OP and a bolero when I am supposed to be saving money for College, which starts soon. What do?
>>8832713
regret then either have a closet cleanout or stick your non-essential money in a proper savings account that you can't get it out of
it's ok to occasionally impulse get shit just don't let it become a habit
Just had to share this:

Who's going? Any gulls cosplaying despite the huge cosplay restrictions? I'm hoping my sailor Jupiter skirt isn't too short
>>8824177
What cosplay restrictions? Last I heard there were no restrictions except maybe nudity.
They really want to be "family friendly" this year for some reason. Skirts two inches from the knee, no bare shoulders, etc etc
>>8824177
Can I see your cosplay?
I was recently looking through some old cosplay pictures on my computer when I got reminded of this.
>Had been out of cosplaying for almost 3 years
>Decide to make super-eleborate costume as a comeback, worked on it for almost a year
>Pretty damn proud
>Contact photographers from back then, almost everybody quit or asks big amounts of money now

Why did you want to shoot at the convention wouldn't it be better to shoot outside at a better location that represents the character you are cosplaying. Con photos arent always the best. I mean I've had one or 2 bad shoots before but didn't give up.
Hunger Games cosplay thread? Bonus if book inspired.

This thread is for ouji and aristocrat (aka "boystyle") discussion. Boystyle refers to the masculine counterparts of lolita and aristocrat fashions. Google ouji, aristocrat, EGA, etc., before asking questions here.

I need to find more indie brands, gulls. Please help!
>>8835818
If I had the time I would make a list or a link to a list of indie brands.
Pic Related is Strawberry Witch from Taobao (no charge for custom when through taobao's SS)

I'm sure there must be an indie list somewhere right?
