Lolita for plus-sized people?

[Raine Dragon]

Bodline has some things that are available in larger sizes and Maxicimam's Lovely line goes up to at least 120cm in the bust in most pieces. I found conflicting charts on what the measurements for the size you mentioned would be, so I would suggest taking your measurements with a measuring tape instead of relying on a set size (especially since when you are buying internationally the sizes are measured differently anyways)... Tokyo Rebel might carry some Maxicimam Lovely; I can't remember off-hand if they do at the moment. If they carry Maxicimam MAM, then they can probably order it at the very least. 3nodding

Thanks a lot for the info. I'm a 20/22 in US sizes. I'm trying to get into a workout routine to tone up and get rid of a lot of my..fat. xD Just to put it into perspective. xD

Thank you all for the wonderful suggestions, I will look at the sites. I've been wanting a Lolita dress for a long time, especially with Halloween coming up, I could wear one, feel great, and not get a ton of stares. x.x I'm not good when people stare at me.

Anyone here wear them on a regular basis? Do people stare?

If you are planning on losing a bit of weight, maybe you can look into getting something custom made. I'd suggest looking at Lady Sloth if you like gothic or classic styles. I have her Clock Jsk and it's extremely flattering, beautifully made, and fits like a glove. It was only $70 after shipping too. OoJia on Facebook also does custom stuff. Even if you don't want to go the route of replicas, she can make non-print original design dresses to your specifications and it's not too expensive to commission her either. smile That way you can get a few items to wear and not worry too much about fit! :3

I wish I could wear Lolita on a regular basis, but my husband thinks it's cosplay (probably because I often like to wear OTT sweet, but he swears it's cosplay even when I just wear a simple skirt without a petticoat. I also work full time and have to wear a uniform. So I only have a little time each week, and sadly my stuff stays in the closet unless I'm going out with a friend and wearing casual or going to a meetup or convention. ;_;

But when I do go out with it,l I often do get stares. Most reactions I've gotten however have been either neutral or positive. Then again, I've only been doing this since June of this year.

It's affordable and most items can be made-to-order in any custom size.

I always hear stories like that about boyfriends. I'm jealous of your tolerance. I couldn't deal with that myself.

Look for 'opera' or '1800's' outfits, or even costumes. They're expensive as hell, but you can find a few pieces that are lolita, cute, and designed for women between 140-300 lbs. (depending on height).

If I had a husband like that, I'd divorce him. rolleyes (This is probably why I'm 29 and still not married. lol)

Fan plus friend has a bit of a history of screwing up custom sizing, so just be careful. It's always best to order a set size if they have one that fits.

I think the only way I'd date a guy would be if he was into dandy or classy goth. Something cool like that. It's never going to happen though. More likely that I'll die alone with 25 cats and I'm totally ok with that.
