Where can I get lenses that are orange/yellowish?
Picture related.

i want to see more like this- less costumey, more "real" cosplays. where the dresses are intracate and the wigs are multi-toned and look more like real hair. is there a name for it? historically accurate? grounded?

I'm torn, OP.
I like seeing some more realistic costumes sometimes, especially when done well/right but far too often people try to do this and just end up adding a bunch or unnecessary bling to make the gowns 'fancy' or 'real-life' instead of tackling the (more difficult) source material.
Examples I'm specifically put off by being the style popularized by homestuck's FancyTier bullshit and hoards of inaccurate disney princesses.
I find that the above groups typically...

The only animal bag I've ever liked is Dolly Cat, which I have coming in the mail to me. I've never been partial to teddy bears on bunny rabbits.
>>8709055
I own two Usakumya bags, a mini mini black x blue and this Ivory version of Usakumya. I love the early Usakumyas. I've used mine occasionally but would like to use them more, they do look nice in a room though.
>>8709055
I never have, the ones like pic related are just ugly. If baby or AP would release a cute, cartoony animal bag, not one that looked like a possessed stuffed animal, I'd buy it
Is anyone planning on attending AkibaExpo? It's a first year con hosted in Anaheim, California. I wanted to go since it's about a 20 minute drive from my house but I'm double thinking it because there's been some shady business practices and drama surrounding the event and it's CEO. Anyone heard anything about it? The facebook event page is trying to do damage control as we speak
>shady business practices
>drama

Didn't see one.
To start the thread what's the word on Arda's Silky fiber? I'm trying out my next purchase but I want a ponytail wig which Arda doesn't have in Silky and their regular fiber is a bitch to untangle.
wtf happened to lockshops mermaid wigs?
>>8701632
I'm quite the noob when it comes to wigs. Any gull happen to have a list of wig vendors? Any help is appreciated.
Im usually such a tight-ass when it comes to wigs and just cant bring myself to pay more than $20 for one..
Though I just bought this

(would love to know if anyone else has it/ reviews)
But also, what are DreamHolics wigs like.. they look stunning in the pics, but are they actually decent/ good quality??
We have a regretsy thread, so how about an Etsy one?
Lolita/ jfash/ cosplay Etsy stores that got dat good shit.
Will dump some things I'm following

Why do people think this sort of thing looks good?
>>8662956
Because insecure girls think it's sexy and confident to morph themselves into sex dolls for validation when actually what they really want is respect yet they won't get it going down that road. Vicious cycle. Look what happened to Charms, after all.
>>8662956
fucking lost it at "gerard way's realdoll"
also ahripop or whatever is just one trainwreck after another. she's 100% white but does her makeup and Photoshop herself to look "azn desu"
>>8662956
because it does? you know, different tastes and what not.

I am going to second this actually. It is a turn off because for people complaining about not getting cool looking photos from photographers, they post stuff in groups saying 'ANY' photographer. They get settled with a guy with a shitty commercial Nikkon. Instead of, you know, looking up photographers or asking what photographers are going to be attending and then looking up their work to see if you are interested in shooting with them and their style.
Its lazy for cosplayers an this is coming from...

>I am going to second this actually. It is a turn off because for people complaining about not getting cool looking photos from photographers, they post stuff in groups saying 'ANY' photographer.
From what I see, "Any" is just what people say because no one would normally ask to shoot said people. Big cosplayers don't need to do this, considering the fact that photographers are getting in line to get shoots with them.
>>8700663
replace "photographer" with "cosplayer". same deal. step off your high horse, Martin.

all that brolita is making me cringe... and the badly dressed...
>>8711784
I watched it, it was so fucking cringeworthy. That brolita tho
>nobody knows that I'm male
I'm sure they do, judging by your ugly masculine face, and I'm pretty damn sure no one tried to have sex with you because you look like a little girl.
I'm surprised xylia-x is in this, I thought she'd be above cringey documentaries, but I guess I was wrong.
>http://www.sbs.com.au/news/thefeed/gallery/secret-lives-lolitas
an article for it, so many inaccuracies holy shit
and i thought sbs would be different
This wasn't that bad compared to others that make us seem crazy, but it made lolita seem like a secret recluse club.
Bad cosplays, try to post OC and not pasta. Gonna start out with a "Mr Meseeks" cosplay from Rick and Morty

Let's discuss new and upcoming indie brand releases! What do you guys have on preorder?
I have the Death Angel print reserved, but I can't unsee the penis thing now, fuck

They should call their company "CocksFeathers" because nice dick print.

It was the first thing I noticed when I clicked on the image above
CPK general.
Does anyone have any ideal outfit photos that you feel just completely represent CPK?
Any good ebay/aliexpress/taobao shops?
How often do you dress in CPK?
Not really an ideal outfit but I don't think any cpk coord is complete without a cross. I'm thinking of making my own like this one I like the plushy look to it.
that red tho
>>8695995
I bet you dont think any cult party coord is complete without a peignoir either.
