Classic thread? I've been contemplating getting back into the style, convince me with your best pics.
Especially looking for darker classic. Reds, greys etc.

Sorry, don't have a lot of darker color palettes, I lost a lot of pictures recently. I'll see what I have though.

this borders on gothic/classic, sorry if it doesn't count
>>8731503
same with this one
>>8731505
>>8731503
Don't worry, I have a huge weakness for anything on that border.

Well coorded classical is so beautiful and elegant. I know everybody has their own tastes - but to me classic will always be the truest form of Lolita. It's nice to wear Hyper-Cute sweet stuff sometimes, but Classical just warms my heart.
I love this thread.

Her head looks like she is nearly touching the roof oh my stars
>>8731643
That's funny because she's short irl.
I'm sure the photo was taken from a low angle, the way standing portraits are supposed to be taken.
>>8731489
Who is this? She's so pretty.

Yes, she's pretty well known for it (I think louvrianne is her name?)

What are your guys' thoughts on bare legs (or nude nylons?) in classic? My wardrobe is finally starting to get defined as more classic-leaning, but I'm so used to wearing printed OTKs or tights that bare legs feel strange to me, and i worry I'll be judged, even if I feel they suit the coord, like in this.
>>8733507
I'm eh on it, personally. I think they only work in outfits like the quoted where it could reasonably be worn as a 'normal cocktail/formal event dress'. In which case... you're not necessarily going for lolita anyway, it just happens to crossover.
In almost every situation I think a simple pair of tights is preferable- or if for summer, simple tights or crew socks.

Trying to contribute a bit more so thread doesn't die
>>8736966
Apologies if there's any repeats, I don't remember what I've dumped already. Might post some collages too for lack of worn coords.

>that blackface portrait
>>8736969
Really beautiful. What skirt is that?
>>8731503
This honestly looks like straight gothic to me, but it's nice either way.
random RuffleCon classic coords

>>8731486
This is actually one of the shittier coords I've seen Choke do, but I love the background.
>>8738402
>>8738405
never mind, the photographers seem to have focused on portrait shots rather than full-body ones.
>>8738403
None of her coordinates are very good though
Since the co-ord thread has gone to shit, anyone know how to fit a sweet dress into a classic co-ord?
Bodyline because yeah, really.
>>8739923
Use an ivory/cream blouse instead of white, and play up the browns with shoes and accessories. This really only works with toned down sweet dresses though, so I don't know how well it'll work in practice here because that print is pretty sweet.
>>8739923
I don't really think that's a dress you can make classic. You might be able to get away with more mature-sweet styling but not classic. Try a blazer, some cute heels and a beret or cloche hat in browns and pink. Long sleeve, toned down blouse like a bowknot or round neck blouse in offwhite.
>>8742817
this Excentrique dress and detachable collar are perfect
Excentrique needs more love
>>8731486
what is this dress? I've wondered for so long and it's so autumnal and lovely.
>>8731505
not to start a debate, but this is gothic
still v pretty though
>>8731576
ero classic?!?!? much love for this
>>8742883
yeah, the makeup/pirateness throws me as they aren't typical for gothic.

Not going to say 'get out,' but for the love of everything good can you lurk just a tiny bit more.
