Lolita Fashion Show

[alice]

*Grins* Yup yup as you've heard I will be helping out tons. =^__^= I'll be working on an introductory video, picking music (I will need everyone's input), timing and spacing on stage, backstage direction, helping with scripts, modeling, and other odd jobs. Suggestions greatly appreciated. It'll be much easier once I've actually met faces.

Meeting at my house at 10 AM for all who can make it on Sunday! I'm pm-ing my house address and phone # to participants

I POSSIBLY POSSIBLY POSSIBLY will be able to show up, but I'm not sure.
I'm fairly busy this weekend and my mom doesn't really want me loading too much more onto my schedule...

But, if you can fill in details about what happens at the meeting, that'd be great! ^^

[flyingwind66]

yup, will update on meeting stuff afterwards. Meanwhile, the meeting is supposed to basically 'get the ball rolling' I'll be grabbing sewing measurements, getting to know everyone, showing Aya's patterns and all that jazz.

I plan on doing some makeup mock-ups. Some hair mock-ups maybe, figure out what to do for accessories. Shoes too...

[alice]

I just want to meet everyone. It'll be easier to plan things once I know everyone. I'll bring books too and talk about what I have planned so far and run it by everyone.

Sorry Crono (Adam I would assume with Rubba_Chikn's comment) Lolita not Lolicon We do not encourage sexual fetishism of children in *this* show, not to mention I'm thinking there won't be many childrens. You may want to bring that one up with the hentai panel though and see if they can't set you up with some Shota there. ;D

Actually, in the same way you're talking about loli not being lolicon, I'm talking about Shota in a sense other than Shotacon. Shota is also not necessarily sexual: "It can also apply to postpubescent (adolescent or adult) characters with youthful neotenic features that would make them appear to be younger than they are." My comment had nothing to do with sexual fetishism, moreso the fact that a lot of people tell me I look young for my age, at least when I shave.

I understand that many people would misunderstand or be confused about what the panel is about, but I'm not one of them. I should have been more specific in my post.

Ah, very sorry. May we call a broken joke now? Far too used to the calls of shota and loli when in reference to <insert specific> complex. I can sympathize as well in respect to age-ignorance as I can easily pass for 15-17 which I am not, solely for the fact I'm very slight.
However, if you are still interested in being shota... that would really have been kodona. We could always do a secondary kodona to help the ladies walk on or something.. *shrugs*

[Crono]

Haha, no worries! I was mostly just kidding around anyway! I remember at the Sakura-Con lolita fashion show they actually had like, one or two guys. Not sure what style it was though. Maybe aristocrat or something?

[RuBBa_cHiKN]

You mean like Oz Bezarius or Ciel Phantomhive?

[flyingwind66]

Ok, update on what happened at my place today.

Natasha has essentials for people like she has 3 petticoats (can lend 2) and 5 socks (can lend 4 if you take care of them!) I'm lending a skirt to Natasha and she is lending a kimono and Obi to Megan. Alex has all accessories and just needs a dress. Elsa has corset & shoes , might need stockings....

I have measurements for bloomers from Natasha, Elsa, Alex. I need measurements from Alli, Nikki, Cait, Chessie, Yuna, Jackie & Megan for bloomers.

Designed the dress for Alex.

[Aya]

For Elsa, Sharon, are you planning on having bloomers from under the skirt showing? Are we kind of following Kana for that one?

Also why is Cait only showing at 90% for her outfit? I thought she HAD a dress.

Your percentages are confusing me. Please explain them to me in a detailed list of who has to get what done, etc.

Also I'm thinking Alice can take care of Jackie and Kyle.

Nikki is taking care of herself under my suggestion/ guidance.

Also Sharon, can you take care of petticoats as well? Or perhaps Alice.

We need coordinators to have a separate email correspondence ASAP, this is rather frustrating for me currently.

[flyingwind66]

yup Elsa is following Kana in the whole 'bloomers showing' bit.

Cait is 90% because she has no petticoat, she said she will have bought one by the time the con rolls around though.

Alice is doing Jackie for sure... I'm doing all the bloomers, Kyle we were going to buy a maid outfit from Value Village.

I'll see what I can do about petticoats... If Alice can do them it would be great! and I'll send you offline messages about any new developments.

[Aya]

On a lighter note now that I've had my daily cluster

ed [I'm a terrible fluff-ball] moment, I realize I don't actually have that SEVERE a sewing load on me, but January still seems more reasonable than December (SHARON YOU BETTER NOTE THAT!) I can do about a third (equal division!) the petticoats I think?
I will definitely be at the next meet, this last one I missed as I have a 12 page term paper due on Wednesday and hadn't started it. Im also far too lazy to sign into my account so that's why I'm only a "guest" right now.

Further. Le Chateau has some lace topped stocking this season which are really cute. I already bought a pair of white ones. When I last checked they were 15. However, it is not hard to add lace to stockings if one gets good quality lace and stockings.

Right now I'm waiting for Alli to reply if she will still do Punk. We'll find out soon- she and another one of my models that I'm bringing in have been having issues. Stupid stuff, really but I will not be biased or rude enough to disclose details.

And have we discussed _ACCESSORIES_ to go with outfits or are we still looking at designs? Quick reminder to those models who are still looking at footwear, if you need to match say a pair of cheap black mary janes to say... a shiro dress- spray paint, ribbons, flowers, etc = love.

[flyingwind66]

I put December because Alice said that... But honestly Aya, if you have patterns for dresses, I'd rather you do all the dresses and I be responsible for all the pettis that need to be made. Alice is planning on doing the hair stuff... not sure if she's doing all of them though... I just picked up 2 tiny top hats for anyone who doesn't have any hair accessories at the moment!

[alice]

Here is a good brief history that Sharon wanted me to put up. Sorry about the bad scan I did it in a hurry.

[alice]

Another quick note. I just got the winter issue of the Lolita bible today. It has a very good guide to hair styling in it. I will bring it for next meeting.
