i'm sick of all these maxi length dresses.
>>10930239wow, the Oshi No Ko IW collab falls flat for me. it's so bland, I really wish they added more details to the jacket and skirt. I dropped the ONK manga bc of the sibling situation but I hope they collab with meta or baby or something and make a lolita appropriate version of one of Ai's stage costumes.
innocent world used to be the best, now the dresses are all way too long and the designs 9 times out of 10 are extremely boring. like they couldn't have added lace trim to the ONK collab skirts or something? or even a braid detail? so depressing, man.
>>10930315they've also gone the mostly-polyester route, too. IW used to have such nice cotton, but their most recent cotton release felt like cheap quilting fabric, and their poly feels costume-grade. sad. at least they still make good socks, i guess.
>>10930323the socks are gorgeous designs but they stretch throughout the day and fall down on me if i'm doing a lot of walking, unfortunately. i never have that problem with baby but baby's stuff doesn't always go well with classic. ugh
>>10930326strange, they stay up well for me. maybe you should get sock glue.
>>10930326none of my IW socks have ever stretched out like you describe and I'm very tall, is it just one pair or multiple that this has happened to?
>>10930289nayrt, I don't dislike maxi length but I just think it doesn't work with the large majority of the designs shown here. Like they got a knee length dress design and just kept going.The dress that misako is wearing in this picture >>10930242 is the only one I really like and I would still ditch that petticoat/underskirt.>>10930315I love most of the old school IW designs. Who decided to change direction and why I wonder. There is obviously a demographic for this, just not in the western comm afaik.
>>10930494supposedly the long length is popular in japan, which is why so many brands are doing it.
