Today's Anti-Kawaii Character of The Day is Cyn from Murder Drones! In her "worker drone" form, she wears maid-themed Girly Kei, as "Cynessa" her outfit is more akin to Dark Girly Kei! In her fused and Eldritch forms, she fits into Gurokawa imagery!

This character was requested by @saplingheaven and anonymous!

Hi again, just wanted to say one thing I'm really looking forward to seeing is your rendition of Helena's S2-S9 outfit. Always loved it so much more. :)

It's very interesting trying to translate it into my style. I'm not sure which direction to go in yet :D

some editorial examples of the 90s doing the 60s.

reminds me of the 70s doing the 50s (grease, happy days) and before that, the 50s doing the 20s (singin’ in the rain, some like it hot)

interesting to notice what is kept or thrown away, what is exaggerated & what is downplayed, how certain retro aspects coincide with the contemporary fashion trends.

@tokibuns

If there was a Inside Out spinoff about Fear and Disgust instead of about Dream Productions....

...would you watch it if Pixar even tried to make it?

Hmm, would I...? As one of the biggest supporters of Disear?? 🤔

(yes. the answer is yes lol)

In all seriousness, a spinoff series of Fear and Disgust sounds like it has a lot of potential. I believe these two have enough chemistry to carry an entire show together (assuming the rest of the cast is moot). I'd definitely love to see these two in wacky scenarios outside of their roles as emotions in Headquarters. ^^

GUIDE TO LOLITA VS HIME GYARU

I’m going to break down the differences of Sweet+Old school Lolita and Hime Gyaru for any J-fashion enthusiasts In this post.

At first glance these styles can look very similar with the joint goal of looking like a feminine “aristo doll” in rebellion of social norms of conformity when it comes to getting dressed but appearance wise they are different.

( I’m only going to talk about the visual differences here but there are other great sources for history )

Silhouette —

Lolita: What makes Lolita fashion so recognisable is the cupcake silhouette of the petticoat underneath the skirt, how the skirt has lots of volume at the top and stops 1/3 down leaving the the rest of the skirt’s curve to slow down.

Hime Gyaru: Hime Gyaru dresses and blouses do not have petticoats or if they do they are thin and flat. Because of the babydoll style of the dresses they have a more loose fit.

Colours —

Lolita: In Sweet styles the colour palette of most coords are pastels with pink, blue, yellow, purple and some green, Old school has more bold colours with darker reds, greens, pinks, whites, blacks and blues but with white accents with lace.

Hime Gyaru: Colour palettes are relatively the same for every Hime Gyaru coord with cold pinks and white with occasional accents of black.

Modesty—

Lolita: Most Lolitas wear a blouse underneath their dresses but in summertime some Lolitas wear their dresses with out a blouse. Their skirts tend to be above knee height and will wear knee or thigh high socks or patterned tights.

Hime Gyaru: Hime Gyaru tends to show more of the shoulders because of low necklines. The skirt normally reaches its end before the end of the hand and socks normally aren’t prevalent in Hime Gyaru fashion.

Prints —

Lolita: With Sweet Lolita prints you can find florals, animals, food, drinks and sometimes buildings. With Old school you can find prints like plaid and tartan. It is important to note that it’s mainly split down the middle with Lolita dresses having prints or being plain.

Hime Gyaru: Almost every Hime Gyaru dress will have a floral print ( this being roses ).

Misc —

Lolita: While some Lolita’s wear colourful wigs it isn’t needed for a Lolita coord. Makeup can vary from rather subtle to pink blush and gloss.

Hime Gyaru: Hime Gyaru is known for their dirty blonde Goldilocks wigs. Will commonly sport a fake tan although it may not be as dark as other Gyaru sub styles. Lipstick and blush is a light cold pink and they wear large false eyelashes. Long acrylic nails are a must.

Please note that there are exceptions to all of these and there are no rules to these styles and the most important thing is having fun! :))
