classic lolita is dead

The "fashion point" are the RHS because they are the only thing saving this outfit from becoming a full-blown tradwife cosplay.

The "fashion point" for this coord is the overdress that I made out of a vintage peignoir that I hadn't been wearing recently.

The "fashion point" was blue florals that ended up giving 青花瓷, which was kind of fitting because we went to a new afternoon tea place.

The "fashion point" for this coord is the tiered ruffles on the cardigan mirroring the tiered ruffles on the skirt:

The "fashion point" for this coord is "Florals? For Spring? Groundbreaking."

The "fashion point" for this coord is the beadwork along the lapels and hem of my bolero:

The "fashion point" for this outfit is layering my blouse collar over the lapel of my blazer:

The "fashion point" for this coord is layering for the cold weather.

The "fashion point" for this coord are the boots. Which are honestly more of a "function point" because they are the only lolita-appropriate winter shoes I own.

The "fashion point" for this coord is recycling elements of recent Classical Doll coords because I decided half an hour before I was supposed to leave the house that I didn't like what I had originally planned to wear for my comm's ILD tea party.

The "fashion point" for this coord is the 短襖 that I randomly found in a local secondhand shop. I tried to mix elements of the style of clothing that Han women would wear during the late Qing Dynasty with lolita fashion.

The "fashion point" for this coord wearing lolita during the first snow of the season (against my better judgment). And also to a lesser extent my jewelry:

The "fashion point" of this coord is dressing in greyscale. I've been gravitating towards black a lot recently. Something about the weather getting colder probably ┐(´ー｀)┌

I was really inspired by this particular look from Gucci's 2020 F/W collection and wanted to try to make a more "wearable" interpretation of it with stuff that I already own. The "fashion point" for this coord is the harness layered over the sweater layered over the OP:

The "fashion point" of this coord is the necklace and the vest's hardware all being round and sort-of-matching shades of antique bronze. And I guess to a lesser extent Alice and the Pirates accessories more broadly:

The "fashion point" is the Victoria's Secret gold label "corset cover" that I randomly found in a thrift store.

Hat: vintage Laura Ashley

Frill Cap: Pink House

Gloves: vintage

Bag: Axes Femme

Parasol: Alice and the Pirates

The "fashion point" of this coord is (functionally) recycling a coord I wore earlier this year, except in black.
