Beautiful dress! But looks like something a woman with badly dyed black jair and a pierced eyebrow wears with black combat boots, sorry

I want a girl who wear that thing, and she can't afford it I'll buy this to her !

I think Imgur community would would let pass a selfie of you in that dress.... Just saying
Raz0rking
One of the few moments of my life i regret not beeing a woman...THIS is one of them. it looks great
shorr
Psssst, EGA style ;)
Raz0rking
EGA? I am afraid, i do not understand
shorr
Elegant gothiv aristocrat, usually EGA. It's a bit of an counterpart for this kind of thing and for both men and women
Raz0rking
uuuuh...fancy fancy (just googled it) *_*
NoneMorePale
I could see my character in Bloodborne rocking the shit out of this
Iamverymucharousedrightnow
You're on the money there. This style is very Victorian Romania so it's the sort of things you'd see the doll wearing.
NoneMorePale
Haha I was thinking that exact thing
SmokedtheChair
It's beautiful. I'm a seamstress, and i'd love to try making this
carolinaguuurl
Hardest part has to be the lapels. Other than that, not toooo hard.
carolinaguuurl
Apparently people would pay a lot of money for them. Let's start a business! :)

I would if i thought i could attempt this sucessfully

Yes. I was quite surprised no-one else had thought of her either. Great minds, eh?

CatOnARoomba
Yay! Lolita on the fp! if people are interested of learning about it I'd be happy to write something up. It's one of my favorite fashions.
TheWorldsGreatestPlagueDoctor
Is there such thing as lolita but for guys?
CatOnARoomba
There are a few different styles that would be considered the 'guy' version. Kodona or Elegant Gothic Aristocrat are the two I see most.
ladypenguin
Yes! Do it! I always thought about it but have been out of lolita for to long x33
CatOnARoomba
I've been wearing it more casually as I've gone into the work field, but I still love my jsks and ops too much to sell them. ;__; 1/2
CatOnARoomba
But if you have any particular topics you'd think would be good, feel free to pm me! 2/2
Dramacian
EGA. Magical letters. Out of production ? You might want to check Japan for Elegant Gothic Aristocratic.
nananashisan
Yeah but I don't see any that looks almost exactly like this.
BakinBaconBaked
I hate you for getting my hopes up
cocoakoumori
Yahoo Auction and Closet Child are good places to look for out of print stuff @op. Not sure if they have English support, though.
shorr
Closet child has some. They also ship internationally
cocoakoumori
tbh you're better off waiting for something to go onto Closet Child than trying to use a shopping service to get stuff 1st print.
shorr
Very likely. I never bother with services so second hand markets or handmade it is. Or €€€€€€€
cocoakoumori
Absolutely! I try to use livejournal to find local lolis/aristos selling their old stuff ^^;
Dramacian
I usually shop at Fanplusfriend.
cocoakoumori
Yeah f+f are pretty good. My only grievance is that they don't clearly label what's intended for cosplay orz
Dramacian
What would be the difference ? And there is a part "Costume" where you can choose anime/video game etc.
cocoakoumori
1 But they lump a lot of their "costumes" in the other categories. The difference is that you may buy a costume and wear it to an event
cocoakoumori
3 moment to tell me. It would have been embarrassing. I'll find an example...
cocoakoumori
2 without realizing. I almost ordered a Lady Red costume from Black Butler before I had watched it but my friend stopped me at the last
Moose445
It reminds me of Angela from the office
thebosstweed
I think this is actually kind of ugly. I SO appreciate the talent and craftsmanship needed for this piece, but it's not for me.

ewokpilot
This is great. Where can i get one? I...my...wife. Yes! Wife! He, no she, needs one.
Iamverymucharousedrightnow
If you are a man and you want to wear this then wear it with pride, god damn it!
cocoakoumori
I found the original listing for it @op. Since it's out of print, search for "別珍コルセットジャンパースカート" to find it on sale elsewhere. Links in reply
nananashisan
That translates to "velveteen corset jumper skirt" and doesn't have the lapels. It's actually "フェンサー・ジャンパースカート". I got the info from (1/2)
cocoakoumori
Oh? I actually linked the entirely wrong thing. Sorry, then ^^; So it's the "Fencer Jumperskirt"? (I do read Japanese though ty)
cocoakoumori
Ah, I couldn't find the second half of your comment but I got it through your profile.残念だけどね・・・closetchildは今乗ってないけど時々チェックしてみてね。maidenも (^^)v
Yeterel
I think it's from the Japanese brand, Mary Magdalene
RandomAccessMarshmallows
My initial thought as well.
shorr
Nope, not MM. But they or Victorian maiden have somewhat similar stuff
Akumabunny
You may be able to find something similar through chinese cosplay/goth loli seamstress shops... like http://www.fanplusfriend.com/
Akumabunny
They often can make them to whatever size you want.
Mysuperlongimgurusername
Great username
Akumabunny
Thank you

LOLITA ON THE FRONT PAGE!?!? AMAZING!
shorr
Yes!
ladypenguin
Haha jup suprised me as well!
Plurbie
Go to a tailor and nicely ask if they can make a pattern for you ^_^
FearThePepper
I must be the only one pissed off that a walnut and this dress can grace the front page but I'm not allowed to.
SmellyPotatoMan
All I want is a nice home and a lady who will wear things like this that match my suit with top hat and coat tails. I'm a simple man.
shorr
Intriguing.

Markond
I though it looked more like something Lutece might wear, perhaps for the fancy events Comstock would have made her attend.
kaylakunnymuffin
Exactly what I thought too!
ElegantKitty
She's not the first, or last, to wear something such as this. It's been around for ages. :P
tysker86
Also, I am not the one who downvoted you, just so you know. I respect the truth in your statement.
ElegantKitty
No worries~ I've gotten used to it because people cannot express themselves so they feel like they do something with silly imaginary points.
tysker86
Yes, while that statement is true, it does not change the fact that she is who i thought of.
ElegantKitty
Yeah! It wasn't meant to be mean or anything. ;3

Iamverymucharousedrightnow
As a seamstress, HNGGG! However, I'd put a couple of high quality plastic bones in the bodice just to prevent that warping around the waist.
ExperimentKraj
Why plastic?
SuckItBlue
Because whale bones are frowned upon.
ExperimentKraj
Well, I mean, there's also steel bones.
Iamverymucharousedrightnow
Steel would shape the body and is sturdier but that isn't really necessary for a dress like this. Plus plastic can be washed regularly.
ExperimentKraj
Aren't plastic bones prone to getting permanent bends? My S.O. had a Fredericks corset that was painful to wear because it got bent.
Iamverymucharousedrightnow
Most bend but there are some high quality brands that are designed for garments like this. I wouldn't use plastic in a corset though.
likethekeyonthekeyboard
Was thinking the same thing! I am a costume student. Where do you work?
carolinaguuurl
Ooh, I would love to go to costume school!
likethekeyonthekeyboard
how good they are. My program is well structured & has a degree and diploma option. http://www.broadwayworld.com/studentfield/Costume-Design
likethekeyonthekeyboard
I go to Dalhousie in Halifax, NS. I assume you are in the US. There are some programs in the US according to this link but I'm not sure(1/2)
carolinaguuurl
Wow... the whole school looks interesting as hell.
likethekeyonthekeyboard
I honestly love going here. It has it's problems as all uni's do, but the art school is well funded and the prof's are amazing.
Iamverymucharousedrightnow
Oh cool! I'm actually waiting to hear back from some customers in the theater industry about an apprenticeship.
Iamverymucharousedrightnow
*costumers
likethekeyonthekeyboard
I checked out your Etsy store and see you're in Australia. What theatres are you looking into? I have no idea what to do after graduation
Iamverymucharousedrightnow
Yessss, my imgur advertising is working!
Iamverymucharousedrightnow
At the moment I'm waiting to hear back Uni SA, Playford and Tee Tree Gully.
likethekeyonthekeyboard
So are you looking to go to school or work at the theatre in uni SA? Playford and Tee Tree Gully look really small.
greenbeanraneen
Where did you learn to be a seamstress?
Iamverymucharousedrightnow
I get a reasonable amount of work from friends and family but you need proper qualifications to earn a living as a seamstress.
Iamverymucharousedrightnow
I'm entirely self taught (online courses) but I'm waiting to hear back about an apprenticeship with a professional. /1
greenbeanraneen
Cool! Would you mind sharing where you took the online courses? I want to try my hand at it.
Iamverymucharousedrightnow
Sure. I recommend SewSchool, Open Collages and Craftsy for in depth courses but for individual skills and techniques... /1
Iamverymucharousedrightnow
Angela Clayton on YT - historical pattern making and techniques. RalphPink, LucysCorsetry, Sew Curvy, SidneyEileen - Corsetry /2
Lonecoon
I must know where I can get one. The wife would look adorable in this.
shorr
This one is sold out, but the brand is Excentrique. You can find similar in EGA, lolita and steampunk styles. They are pricey though!
SomethingAwesomer
Seriously wish that this was still an appropriate way to dress... And I'm the type of woman who normally hates dresses...
Calcifiera
Dud I wear a warm ass cloak my grandma and I made together. I live in northern Illinois so the extra warmth is great and it looks nifty.
sukerpunch69
I dress like this all the time. I love dresses and skirts and the compliments I get arn't too bad either. Do what makes you happy
Surrealle
I can't help but wonder what people would wear if we could wear anything without judgment. I'd dress ren-fair all the time (or go naked,tbh)
likethekeyonthekeyboard
It's completely appropriate to dress like this. You'd look amazing if you worked in an office and wore this.
shorr
Eh, just wear it. I don similar stuff occasionally and while you get stares, grandmas also compliment your style
ToastedVanilla
"Is it Halloween already ha ha ha ha" is the usual response... Even when it's nothing too fancy.
Britishchick17
That NEVER gets old.......
shorr
We don't have halloween so I'm usually going for masquerade or good old classic bachelor party. Sigh.
quicktochuckle
I WOULD WEAR THE FUCK OUT OF THIS. I WANT ONE.
tomyironmane
Of course it's out of production, you can wear it without looking like a skank-ho. I'd get shot down by women who could pull off this look.
RobotJock
I WOULD RESPECT YOU SO HARD IN THIS DRESS!
DrMurloc
Would like to know where to throw my money. Need for... christmas present. Totally not for myself.
backet
I'll buy you one. It might be a few years, but it'll happen.
Sqwuid
NO, ME. THEN YOU CAN WEAR ME.
SapphiraKitten
YES THIS, ALL OF THIS. AAAAAAAH!

TheWorldArriving
As a Muslim girl, I love the coverage and cute details.
shorr
Have you seen the Japanese street fashion called lolita? Excentrique makes dresses (like this) for that style
GothRainbowPotato
I love Muslim lolita girls <3
TheWorldArriving
I've seen some people dress up into it but they seem to put a lot of effort into the look, I'd rather be dressed read to go in 15 mins.
shorr
Yeah, it takes some time. That's why it's mostly indulgence for me to dress up, not every day. Also, there are some muslims lolitas too
TheWorldArriving
But it seems fun to dress up and imitate the style with the way I practice modesty in mind :)
fueledbytea
Read an article about this Muslim lolita blogger, some of her looks were amazing!
