>>10912604I had color transfer like this except it was a black jsk that transferred color to a white blouse.I never got it out, but that was a long time ago. If this happened now I would use a specific laundry product that claims to remove color bleed. I have seen it at the local drugstore, just never tried it. It's called laundry SOS or something.
Poly from sheglit and BPN feels so good why did no one tell me polyester could feel so nice?
>>10902439I wanna start dressing like a guy from a magical girl anime. Do I just go full visual Kei?
I really like lolita styled boots and was wondering what would be a good brand to purchase from. I know that brand shoes aren’t necessarily good quality (i.e. synthetic leather). Here’s a reference of what I’m looking for;
What kind of j fashion would work best with this hair style/color? Let's assume the person can not change their hairstyle to fit the look better.>I think mori kei is super pretty. But I feel like the hairstyle might not be feminine enough for it. >Amekaji looks neat. I kinda like the gaudiness of it. I don't know popular it is though. Like if you saw that outfit in America, would you be able to identify it at all. >Don't know if you would classify Sex Pot Revenge as punk/goth, or if they're considered Japanese Hot Topic. I generally like their designs though.I've also thought about kogal and egl. But I feel like the short hair disqualifies it from egl. Kogal might work though. Any suggestions?
neither
I find that after wearing a costume to a con or other event I don't know what to do with it. When the next event rolls around, I want to make a new costume. This means I have a closet full of old costumes basically just sitting there...What to you do with your costumes when you are "done" with them?
>>10905540Personally, I eat it. I don't like wasting carbohydrates.
>>10905540I put it away in my closet until it calls to me.
I usually take a large bag, fold the cosplay up, and throw in all the accessories. Then I put all those bags full of cosplays into one of those large plastic tubs. I store the wigs and shoes separately though, because those can sometimes be used for future cosplays. Here and there I pull out an older cosplay to wear again. It’s nice knowing that they’re there if I don’t finish a cosplay in time for a con or if a friend ends up cosplaying from a series, then we can be matchy
I like to work on upgrading my existing cosplays in addition to making new ones. Sometimes I ran out of time to finalize all the fine details, something didn't come in the mail in time, or time has passed and I got a better wig or have improved my crafting skills. When I repeatedly cosplay a character over the years I find I can get dramatically better at makeup, posing, and other details of them that I simply can't nail on a first try.Oftentimes it's just something small, like replacing buttons or adding another accessory, but there are one or two cosplays of mine that I've done a full "ship of Theseus" slow remake on.
>>10912282Lol I love the ship of Theseus analogy. That’s something I’m in the process of doing with my cosplay of my favorite character

NEW THREAD>>10912266
>>10910226Westernshitters at anime cons are still uniformly worse than any other group that isn't explicitly IRL-focused (IRL Streamers, actual LARP participants, wannabe LARPers, etc.). VTuber simps are cringe, but they are the old kind of cringe that is at least socially focused, and they have an extremely easy time bonding as long as you're kind-of a fan of whichever VTuber they're presently dumping hundreds of dollars into for superchats. You're never going to find a Teen Titans/Avatar/Hazbin/etc. fan who isn't going to enter every single social engagement with every scrap of Twitter/Tumblr baggage you can imagine, and you can rest assured that all of them will expect you to be caught up with their present pool of trending headaches, or they'll be smarmy and short with you every time you engage with them. The only reason why these two are even comparable is because there are tons more VTuber simps now than Westernshitters, but I assure you I'll take 100 VShitters over even 1 more Homestuck/SU lobotomite at a con. At least we're not talking about Power Rangers or Comics fans though, they're about as bad as any group theoretically can be.
It really really really sucks when you find a cosplayer who is genuinely cute (left) but then photoshops their face into looking like aliens (right)Please please please for the love of god rely less on editing
>>10909869Id bang an old lady.
>>10909869didn't know shoop works irl too. What a time to be alive.Also if you can't tell if something is shooped to hell and back you deserve to be disappointed by reality.
>>10909866On the other hand, there's a tendency for people to overblow how edited Asian cosplayers are on Western media. North-east Asian cosplayers obviously have the superior facial features to match the appearance of typical anime girls, so a big part of that is self comforting/cope from those with Caucasoid features that don't want to believe it. Understandable, since if you ever go to a cosplay event in East Asia, the difference in authenticity is very stark. Some of those cosplayers look literally like an anime girl come to life, something that you will basically never see in the West.
>>10911914well, looky here if this isn't bait
>>10909883no it's because she doesn't look like a Grey Alien
Old Thread: >>10886934Featured Idols: Signals (WOMP WOMP)
>>10914484This being said, I’ve seen in the past people comment on groups just being bad performers. This is a pretty good explanation, but when you are watching a kaigai idol what do you think they absolutely need to do to be a good performer and what are your performer red flags/things that make them look shitty ?
>>10915262good performers look prepared and confident on stage. they don't look like they're thinking about the moves and they don't look like they're being held at gunpoint being up there. They look happy and you can tell from their energy that being an idol means a lot to them. Even if they make a mistake, they can laugh it off. singing and dancing skill can be improved overtime. if a person can sing well but struggles with the above, it's not my favorite kind of performance. tldr; idol magic and charm is #1
why are some idols so obsessed with berrybeanpie? seems to me like theyre hysterically hyping her up because shes fat, conventionally unattractive and not a strong performer. this community is lost
>>10915807It's pity support. The people that make fun of her boost her into the algorithms and then she gets an overwhelming amount of pity support following it.Also, off topic but if I see one more strawberry trapper guilty kiss cover at an idolfest I'm gonna yeet myself off a building. I wish people would move on to some new or different shit.
>>10915828Seems like the only ‘idol’ stuff people ever mostly perform are Love Live and ProSekai. There’s WAY more other stuff than just those franchises, but people don’t like actual variety lmao. Wish other idol franchises could be recognized for once.
