Do you think overweight girls or thinner girls...
Pull off the lolita style better?
Do you think overweight girls should just stop wearing lolita? Do you think brand should be made in bigger sizes because thin girls don't look as good in it? I always hear a lot of comments by people saying they hate seeing overweight girls in lolita |
I don't think a style should be limited to one's weight.

Well technically styles aren't limited to a certain body type because they're made in different sizes, however that's not to say that a certain body type looks better in certain styles or that a certain style was created for a certain body type. As far as Lolita go, i think it's usually the slimmer the easier it is to pull it off but I don't doubt those that aren't as skinny can also make it look cute and attractive.

I don't think you shouldn't wear whatever style you want just because of your size or be put off from doing so, but there's ways of doing it that will work better if you're larger, and ways that will work better if you're a stick. It's the same with any fashion; sorry, skin-tight leggings will not suit you if you're over a certain size, it'll only highlight your weight and look highly unflattering. Knee socks are dodgy at the best of times as they cut your legs in half and make your calves look balloony. Layers of lace can look bulky and lumpy regardless who's wearing it if it's poorly constructed. The kind of dress that comes with a kimono type top? A floor length victoriana skirt? Totally looks better on larger girls. So do I think larger girls look worse in Lolita than skinny girls? Only if they're doing it wrong. Too many (round here anyway) seem to try and go for the twagic goffic consumptive look and it neither flatters nor can be taken seriously.
But then a lot of skinny girls look god-awful in Lolita too. |
I love overweighted girls.

In my personal opinion, bigger girls can't pull off most styles. But that doesn't mean they shouldn't be able to wear it.

let's put it this way, everyone has different body shapes, some girls, skinny or fat will pull it off better than others depending on their body shape. ;)

i think the worst thing a girl could do is to put on too much weight.i shouldn't talk though,i'm a beerboy myself.i know it's hard to give-up the things you like best.:vsign:

Style is about how pieces look on you. Some cuts do not look good on all people. Clothes should be tailored to even out disparity between body areas.
I am sure gothic lolita can be worn by everyone, just the pieces in question need to be properly cut and tailored in order to present a coherent look. The biggest mistake we can make stylistically is to wear clothes that are too small or too large or don't fit right across our frame. The clothes may look great alone, but they'll always look wrong if they're not the right fit. |
