omg anon same!
I really dislike CLove as a person, but love her 90's looks and Hole's music…
Personally I never got the 'but it's a dated look' argument against alt styles. Just wear whatever and make it work for you. You can also make it look more modern by adding slight touches of current trends if it's a problem.
Don't copy, get inspired and you will be good.

90s/early 00s goth makeup

>wtf anon that's not dead at all


no! you don't understand! goth is popular and 90s revival is popular, but both camps mostly go for modern makeup, just different intensities and color palettes of ig makeup with the thick brows/cat eye liner/precise eyeshadow. i miss mean skinny brows, unfussy smudged eyeliner, and weird brownish red lipstick. i realize it didn't look good on everyone but on some people it looked fucking amazing and i'm not changing mine!

This is mostly talking about male aesthetics but I know girls in this subculture nowadays wear this sort of stuff too when they're heavily into it.

I miss seeing the 80s/90s full blown thrash and black metal get up with long hair, battle jackets, and bullet belts. Too bad metal is just not as big a thing as it was back then. Men who look like this turn me the fuck on for some reason and they just look so cool to me but god are they rare as ever in my area.

I love the menswear too, it just looks so put together all the time. I already dress quite "preppy" or classic and it gives people the wrong impression of me (they think I'm super conservative).

I once dated a guy who had one of these, he told me it's tradition to never wash these and that no proper owner of one of those jackets would ever think of washing them. I find them disgusting now.

>Too bad metal is just not as big a thing as it was back then.

Sure it is, at least in my country.

Wear what you like in your free time. You're young and beautiful, that's your privilege (and even if you're neither of those things, not dressing as you please is a waste of time). You probably wouldn't normally be seeking fashion advice from whoever would talk shit, anyway.

Battlejackets are still well and alive. Thrash isn't though. So a lot of metalheads are basement dwellers or hitler youth looking motherfuckers. Idk, see if DRI or Napalm Death are coming through your town. Or go to some grindcore/power violence/crust punk shows.

It's sad how there are cute styles that don't last very much, maybe because there isn't a subculture that comes with them (like emo, goth, etc)

…am I the only one who instead sees people often associate it with lesbians or otherwise female/female romance? It seemed like an extension of the "lesbian farmers" meme; a nice combination of implied self-sufficiency and pretty yet natural femininity.

Ladies forgive me for being shallow and simple-minded but about six years back when I decided I wasn't going to kill myself, I realized I had to work towards actually making my life one that was worth living. I had to find joy, and one thing that brought it to me is the brand For Love and Lemons, for whatever reason. I'm not a fashionable girl, never owned a handbag, but something about the white lace was so chic to me in a non-fashion way. It was something simple to strive towards. Now I'm 27 and actually have a career and can afford this shit. I bought the milkmaid tops and the little lace dresses and I'm like. Well fuck. I've aged out of this style.

I feel like there's 2 schools of cottagecore: house on the edge of the forest and house in the forest.
House on the edge of the forest is more like you've got a cute cottage with a flower field in front and the style is more pastel and lacey, think pastel Gunne Sax dresses.
House in the forest is more earthy-toned and mori-influenced with lots of layering, knit/crochet pieces, and boots. House in the forest is the aesthetic that everyone's Animal Crossing island aims to be.

ntayrt but if you're worried about weeb vibes or making them look too costumey, I'd try to keep them hemline longer (mid-thigh shortest) and keep the top part loose. Pic related is a pretty safe bet, albeit maybe a touch too short). Skater skirts are just a variation of circle skirts which I think is pretty timeless and fine to wear at any age, maybe with a few adjustments of material/pattern/hemline to fit your comfort/age. As long as you stay away from the tumblr circa 2014 style of a burgundy circle skirt, band tee, and knee socks, you should be fine (altho I still love that style kek) But hey, on your own time if you want to dress a certain way and it makes you happy, go for it anon!

Totally, so in many ways, kinderwhore is a dark half to lolita; where lolita says, "I don't care if you're uncomfortable," kindwhore says, "You should be uncomfortable."
Kinderwhore is a sharp blend of ostensibly childish aesthetic with unpleasant overtly sexual overtones, a blunt commentary on how girls are brought up in our culture and left effected as adults because of it
I get most of my everything on eBay, it's a hot spot for vintage clothes, thrift stores can be good too if you're in a wealthy or older area
Anyway, keep your dress silhouette short and shapeless, some good search terms include "babydoll," "trapeze," "vintage a-line" and "vintage nightgown." You can have a waist, but usually if you do, it shouldn't be much lower than your nips
Leg wear can be straight up trashy, like Leg Avenue cheap black netting-lace even.
Shoes are usually stilettos or flats, an excellent and widely available option is heels modeled after classic childrens' shoes, like mary janes, penny loafers, saddle shoes, and sneakers even
Mini backpacks and stuffed animal purses are pretty classic, but satin pocketbooks also match well, hearkening back to the birthday party aesthetic Courtney Love experimented with briefly
Anyway again, here's a pic I slapped together

you do you but kek. don't forget the atwood quote. "Male fantasies, male fantasies, is everything run by male fantasies? Up on a pedestal or down on your knees, it's all a male fantasy: that you're strong enough to take what they dish out, or else too weak to do anything about it. Even pretending you aren't catering to male fantasies is a male fantasy: pretending you're unseen, pretending you have a life of your own, that you can wash your feet and comb your hair unconscious of the ever-present watcher peering through the keyhole, peering through the keyhole in your own head, if nowhere else. You are a woman with a man inside watching a woman. You are your own voyeur."

The one thing I really appreciate about scene is that the girls (afaik) didn't feel the need to fake tan so much, although this seems to be a thing for the 2000's in general for as far as I can see. Like if I google "scene queens" it's all just girls rocking their own natural, fresh skincolors. Thát needs to be a trend to come back in 2020, no sundamaged skin, orange faux tans and calling pale skin "unhealthy". Let's just leave our skincolor be again.

I looove late 90's/early 2000's edgelord styles. I think mall goth clothes from that time are really fun (tripp, platform shoes, spikes, long baggy clothes, too many accessories, vampirefreaks ect.) and I have been collecting clothing and accessories for years. It's just really fun to look like a wacky edgy freak. It doesn't really bother me when people stare or talk shit because dressing like this makes me feel cool on the inside lol.

It's odd to me that teens are trying to turn "mall goth" into a palatable hyperfeminine thing. The e-girl stuff is repetitive, they all wear the same outfit and copy each other because they don't want to go out of their comfort zone.(E-girl outfits consist of some mainstream band shirt with a striped long-sleeve underneath, a plaid skirt, fishnets, killstar boots, and a studded belt. Or a checkered/flame bandeau instead of the shirt.) I think they'll get bored of it when the next popular aesthetic comes around.

Honestly, I think that when it comes to this fashion, the dorkier the clothes are, the better. The baggy pants and oversized shirts are so fun to wear and if you don't look a bit ridiculous you're doing it wrong.

You totally should! Not edgy aesthetics in my experience but I have started leaning into a realistic y2k, like juicy tracksuits and lowcut jeans cause it’s what I thought I’d be wearing as an adult when I was like, 5, and it’s made me so happy. Go chase the goth dreams of your child self!!

ntayrt but I think they're refering to how styles, that used to have roots that suggested a lifestyle (such as punk and goth being anti-consumerist and diy) have been replaced and watered down by aesthetics that just prioritise making the wearer looking palatable and nice to men/a mainstream normie audience. Like how modern punk and goth fashion has been watered down to egirl fashion and has become rather consumerist

at anons about goth fashion i completely agree, however i’m less so worried about the whole “e-girl” trend because it’s just mostly teenagers being teenagers for the most part, i’m ok with them embracing whatever that is if it makes them happy without being malignant tumors, it’s just another trend imo. It only really annoys the shit out of me when you have grown women acting like 14-15 year olds about it, reclaiming the term “e-girl” like it’s a badge, then it just gets old fast. though honestly it really depends. i wanted to be scene so badly lmao now i’m mostly teetering on the 2000s fashion revival and goth lolita, even though i don’t think i’d ever wear goth lolita and military-esque lolita fashion in public often unfortunately because it’d probably be too hot and much of a hassle enough. i’m just now starting this year to really get in touch with visual-kei, mallgoth, and harajaku. i’m super excited, i’m hoping to get a new pair of boots soon! fashion is probably one for the best things in the world.

hard agree with the other two anons that you should give it a try– obviously most styles look good on slim women, but i think there's wiggle room with this one and it could actually be really cute on a rounder, softer figure. >>153419 suggested a slouchy sweater, maybe you could nip it at the waist with a belt for some definition? and a little beret on top, it might look really cute! do yourself a favor and try it out, it's a lovely style and i for one would love to see more people wearing it

>I'm jealous of people who look good with berets, I guess my head shape is fucking weird
Maybe try out different ways to wear them? I love berets and think they can be flattering on almost any head shape. Some people look better with bigger and more structured ones, while others suit smaller and floppier berets. The placement makes a difference as well. If you don't look good with a beret that's more to the front and to the side (like your pic), try wearing one that's more centered on the back of your head (like pic related, different style but you get the point).

The revival I most anticipate is the period of when Mustaches, PicCollage, obnoxious phonecases and "Stay Calm and X" were popular. I am genuinely curious to see the modern interpretations of these trends, and simply know they will return as the children who were born in the 2000s gain more influence in the mainstream street-fashion.

In terms of past styles, I truly miss early 2010s weeaboo culture. In my experience, this was a true peak, as online culture was genuinely blooming and growing at a rapid pace. The abundance of squishy and fairy-kei tutorials on YouTube, the lack of Japanese fashion anywhere which demanded creativity, reading a lonesome Legend of Zelda manga from the school library, Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, Vocaloid dance cover popularity… Fukkireta!! Oh my… Ah, what wonderful times. I occasionally indulge in these memories by watching videos by the likes of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQlO1h-T0UQ, for instance. So perfect <3 truly a peak in fashion history. Now fairy kei is just a hiding place for uneducated tumblerettes (even if I visit tumblr myself, you know what I mean, ahah).

Another "outdated style" which I have been indulging in recently is the early 2010s tumblr, crafty, photographer indie girl. I am drawn so to its melange of melancholic and artsy, and the spaces between just grown up and teenager, girly and mature, modest and trendy, weird and creative, and of course the very honest nature of tumblr's textposts at the time. I also slight miss when, around this period, legitimate ana's were en vogue. Now it seems to be more "fit" slim as opposed to mentally ill skinny. (this?? >>141034) >>141063 IT WAS



Finally, it really satisfies my past self to see the abundance of legitimate scene and emo girls in real life. The past few weeks I encountered a handful of tweenaged girls during my dailiy commute, who perfectly suited these characteristics, one of whom being extremely pale, sporting a perfect, pitch-black, poofy side-fringe, and wearing something akin to a BVB-shirt, ahah. The second had natural and remarkably choppy bangs which nearly covered her eyes, whilst donning a bunny hat with long paws, a fluffy skirt covered partially by her tee-shirt and socks over her tights– all in mismatching colors, of course.

>>96747
Goodness I dislike the "kinderwhore" style. Perhaps it is the result of the influences modern styles have had on it, but the contemporary expressions I've seen of it appear to solely attract mentally ill fatties, or girls using it as an excuse to appear dirty and obnoxious, excusing their behavior with the style itself! Perhaps I have solely seen misrepresentations of the fashion, however?

Oh dear, I so fondly recall meeting with a friend many years ago, as she showed an interest in Japanese fashion, and I was most willing to teach her what I knew. We would explore her wardrobe, as to discover her style. Subsequently I would coordinate a core outfit, with some alternative options for different days and moods. The result was a "cult party kei" outfit, and I made one for myself as well so we could match, hehe. It was genuinely fun, I wish I still had friends who would like me to style them and vice versa! I love it so much, but none of them are interested lolol

>>96773 I spy Topshop. Yes. I miss what was common 2006-2012 (ish, it's a guess!) British high street fashion, specifically Topshop, which went to shit. Older UK anons should know what I mean. Short, muted floral-print tea dresses, leather jackets, pixie boots, woolly tights lol.

It was perfect for those in-between years, not wanting to dress like a little girl anymore, but not comfortable dressed as a "woman"/sexy. Much better than the thot & "basic" looks of today.

Decent quality, reasonably priced. I have £30 dresses, worn almost daily, that are still in perfect condition.
It's still in demand, second-hand clothes of that era can command far beyond their original selling price.

Idk, I feel like a lot of teenagers used to look like pic related between 2005-2009, whilst the Skins fashion was more of an "early 2010" look. So I thought the Skins characters dressed very well back then (although most of their outfits are hideus today)

I've got same impression, can't stand Skins. But they're not dated at all, unfortunately Skins have a huge revival on Tumblr and spaces like that, every other stupid girl wants to have romantic beautiful drug addiction or anorexia and to be Effy or Cassie.
Also MySpace emo scene shit/early 00's Paris Hilton plastic looks are coming back. You can't escape teenage girls drooling for Anna Nicole Smith, Paris and Lindsey on Tumblr these days. I feel nostalgic for 00's fashion but ever since it turned wanted and not ridiculed it kind of was spoiled for me.
I like 90's rockbands kinderwhore-babydoll aesthetic like other anons mentioned, actually they were having a comeback in 2012-2013. They always look good no matter the year.
Also lowkey miss early 00's loose rock pants/skater clothes/breakdance hiphop style. Mainly because boys and men never wear that stuff anymore. Skating, breakdancing and oldschool hiphop with turntables activities are gone too. Maybe also a corduroy pants, jackets.

I watched it a bit as a young teen and thought it was cool, rewatched it later and found it ridiculous. The storylines were overdramatic even for a drama, the characters poorly crafted, pacing way off. I would have been one of those parents who wouldn’t allow their kid to watch it, but because of the shit quality rather than uncomfortable themes.

I do miss that era of fashion in a way. It was shit, but it was acceptable to look kind of thrown together. Growing up with the current aesthetics and beauty standards must be really tough.

Thank you. This is gonna be a rant but I'm a bit older than a lot of posters here (lolcow is my version of watching reality tv) and I have sold women's vintage online for nearly 25 years. This recent wave of invented style names being attached to stuff is driving me nuts. I can't recall if it was in this thread or one of the other fashion related threads here, but someone posted a pretty generic 1970s blazer jacket type outfit and someone asked "does this style have a name?" and my head exploded. Yeah, it's "everyday late 1970s fashion". Someone else responded it's soft something something. It wasn't anything, and that doesn't exist, shut the fuck up. Your brain is either soft from years of being into japanese fashion or melting from too much time on TikTok. Like other anon said, not everything is a thing. /endrant

Mad Men was mentioned above already, but I hate how at a certain level/in certain professions womenswear has had a very difficult time getting out of the "what a man would wear to work if he was a woman" power-styling of the 80s. I work at a very "black or grey suit" office.

I'm old enough to remember the days when makeup application was easy and simple and even celebrities wore very basic makeup that took 10 minutes to apply. It was acceptable for your foundation not to completely match your skin tone and you could wear one color on your eyelids that you blended for a few seconds. Makeup was often applied with fingers instead of brushes.

Nowadays everyone frowns upon drugstore makeup and you are expected to shell out on Jefree starr palettes and you are expected to do your makeup with professional drag queen, makeup artist tier skill. This is all thanks to YouTube makeup tutorials. You see teen girls with makeup collections worth hundreds of dollars. When I was growing up even adult women didn't own that much makeup.

I really enjoy the fun way in which older women used to dress many decades ago.

Nowadays as you age you are expected to wear boring, shapeless gaudy clothing with cheap floral prints and shark hems. You are expected to embrace frizzy hair with gray roots and crocs with socks and to just disappear.

Older women in the bygone era often looked so glamorous and they never really gave up on trying to look beautiful or trying to stand out.

They would curl their hair, wear intracate fitted dresses and broaches, wear brightly colored lipstick and interesting glasses.

Female beauty today seems to be completely focused on youth and sex appeal and women are expected to just fade into old age and stop expressing themselves in their clothing choices.

I miss fashion blog-culture from the early to mid 10's. Just random girls taking pictures of their outfits and some other things in their day-to-day life and posting it on their blogs and lookbooks.

I get the feeling that as we age, people don't really care if you wear something that is "dated." I think it's more about how appropriate it is for a situation.

Already in college it felt like no one cared as much what trends were "in". Then again, I was not part of a big social scene there.

I think the question is just whether you can carry the clothes. pull it off. and respect some environments. Work is not the place to show skin or look like a slob. Don't look like a frump at a wedding. Stuff like that.

Not the fucking goldfish… I miss snacking on those now. I don't know why it feels like a trend that slowed after that period.
Anyone else remember the "hipster" side of tumblr (hated virulently by the sjw geeky side, forget what it's called even though I was there more)? Kek they didn't even know the seething geeks existed, just kept posting saturated beach, bikini, makeup, and Arizona drink photography. Picrel kind of shit. Back then it wasn't yet known as "aesthetic" I think. This is still how I picture normies deep down

Honestly boho never went away, it's still fairly popular on some normie circles, both young and moms kinda.
But I want the resurgence to happen. I want a more natural and free approach to fashion without it being cutesy and fairytale-like like cottagecore was (I think that was my biggest problem with it). Cottagecore is great in some ways when it isn't styled in a super over the top way. I guess this is why I like dresses like pic rel, it could be styled in a boho way too.

I'm happy boho will come back, it has a mature vibe while still being femenine, playful and carefree. And it will be for all sizes this time, and not just for someone's mom.

I'm not sure if it was just a UK thing but there was a early-2010s revival of 1920s fashion and music - around the same time as boardwalk empire and the great gatsby film came out.

I was really into it and would set my hair etc. There was a semi-famous singer in the UK who'd appear on TV in that style. I was a cringy 16 year old who Tweeted about him and he favourited the tweet. Long story short we ended up in a completely inappropriate BDSM relationship.

Cassie-esque quirky fun diy style. I just love her fashion in season one, especially in her dedicated episode. It reminds me a lot of the playful DIY-snailmail-early-youtube-crafts-tween sphere I was in that emphasised sustainability and mental health awareness around ED's and cutting in particular, since that was rather rampant at the time. Do any fellow Dutch anons remember the "Hoe Overleef Ik" franchise? That's basically what I'm referring to.

Did people around you really dress like that? I never saw anyone wear similar clothes irl even though I was like 16 when it first aired so definitely the target demo. I always felt like Skins way exaggerated the kitschy quirkiness of the outfits (or the edginess in Effie's case) to the point of just being a hot mess. The casts were gorgeous so I liked the aesthetic overall but teenage me wouldn't have been caught dead in most of the stuff they wore.

It is exaggerated but not in a "disney kid" way. The awful 80's fashion revival created some kitschy ass outfits.
Tony (from the outfits to the haircut) and Sid styles were tamer and a bit more accurate. Weirdly enough Effy and Cassie were more relevant in a mid 2010s context, they were dressed like indie Tumblr browsing kids. Effy was prime mid 2010's soft grunge and Cassie was more "quirky weeb"

Had to come from the front page when I saw Strawberry Switchblade, they're my favorite band! Definitely early pastel goth, really innovative at the time. Their music is also basically that - bubblegum goth. Really one of a kind. If I saw you dressed like that anon, I'd cheer!

Same. That time period was long ago enough that I feel nostalgic for it, and it is sort of bittersweet when styles from your youth come back around as “retro”. But I feel like I’ve barely had enough time to revisit my favorite looks from the 2000s and experiment with a new silhouette. Hopefully this is just a micro trend like coconut girl or fucking twilightcore kek.

>>226174
My prediction is that once we cycle through the 2010s (probably by the end of this year honestly, seeing as how fast things are moving), we’ll get to the 2020s and realize the decade so far has just been a rehashing of old looks. Then we’ll finally get to wear some futuristic shit. My guess is that this will happen when zoom zooms get nostalgic for the late 2010s synthwave era.

I just want to wear a skirt with thigh high socks, but I also want to wear those stupid ass sailor uniforms with funny prints. I feel like all kawaii fashion always looks somehow outdated because I honestly can’t find a reason to wear pic related that isn’t for just some pictures that only I will see from time to time.
I miss wearing kinderwhore outfits, I didn’t know that was the name of that style, I just used to wear whatever seemed closer to Lolita because I wanted to wear those cute Lolita outfits with lots of frills, not those that depends on the print to look nice.
Something else I’ve always wanted to own was galaxy printed shit, I had a time in my teenhood in which I wanted to be like some sort of cool universal being with lots of eyes that could see everything. this was before gravity falls btw I was already an adult when it got released
Another thing I’ve always wanted to wear was arm warmers and leg warmers and things with a shitload of zippers, sadly, I never found something like that, but if you want an idea, pick a Kingdom hearts character with huge shoes and put a bunch of zippers on her clothes, then give her leg warmers and arm warmers and voilà, a 2000’s anime character and my dream outfit as a teen but that I wouldn’t get caught dead wearing nowadays because that shit would make me look like the shortest and stubbiest tree stump.

Yeah, the soft grunge-sky ferrera stuff is already back. Doesn't surprise me though, it's versatile unlike others Tumblr trends.

I miss that Hipster inspired casual fashion that was popular in the early 2010's. I love how there was a big focus on patterns. I miss the more earth-y tone colours(I love girly and frilly clothes but I can't stand pastels).
I miss it's overuse of accessoiries and hats. Back then I thought the accessoiries looked dumb and tbh I still kinda do but I would be lying if I didn't say I'm nostalgic for it.
The fashion also seemed non-sexual. Men didn't really find it appealing. And make up wasn't such a big focus. After how sexualized the fashion of the 2000's where it was nice to have something that focused on layers and leggins while still looking cute. Also since the fashion focus on layering it meant that people would often reuse the same pieces rather than constantly buy hauls.
This style also had it's own mini subculture where there was a focus on liking "geeky" stuff like books and sitcom TV. But it never really became about consoomerism. Sure, it was bonus point if you wore merch but it was not expected to have a huge collection.
Also girls who where part of this semi-subculture seem more interested in connecting with other girls of the same hobbies rather than seek out male approval. I feel like today in geek circles girls seems more interested in showing their collection of coomer figures of to men or dress sexy because of empowerment or whatever.
The hipster style wasn't without it's flaws of course. There was some nlog behaviour, but that's standard for any teen girls and there was an anachan problem. But looking back this style seemed way more down to earth than whatever ia going on now

Pretty much everything Carlie Chaikin as Darlene in Mr. Robot ever wore. She looked like a mess but in a way that was much more acceptable in the 2010s than it would be now. Women's fashion silhouettes spent a decade being top-heavy and now they're back to being bottom-heavy and as someone who doesn't like emphasizing my torso I want to go back.

This isn't an aesthetic in the fashion sense but idk where else to post this, so here we go. Have you guys seen Kewpie artwork from the early 1900's?

Kewpies are comic strips characters that were extremely popular in the first half of the twentieth century. These days Kewpiemania is completely extinct outside Japan and it breaks my heart.

Ayrt, late reply but what I meant was when 'metal fashion' was just wearing a band shirt/hoodie with a battle vest and combat boots. It felt much more genuine to me, I miss the simplicity of just casual/practical with some merch. And yeah of course metal doesn't come with a look, but you can't deny that there are some trends within metal (bullet belt, army pants, combat boots). Also I was ONLY into metal when I was 12-16ish, I still like some bands a lot. Difference is I enjoy other music now too, big fucking deal kek. 'Never really into it', this annoying kvlter than thou shit is why I stopped keeping up with metal influencers in general.

if that anon were to say that about any other genre they would sound equally insane kek most people branch out and listen to other music. I get a kick out of metalheads who latch onto their weird hierarchy when no one else brought it up. Most people know you can enjoy different types of music without dressing the part, only tweens need that distinction. Nothing says authentically enjoying something like measuring up everyone else's musical intake. And yes metal fashion is culturally a thing, no matter how hard you sperg about the musical differences it will continue to exist- there's no reason to get bent out of shape. Music breeds subcultures, subcultures breed aesthetics. I'm sorry if an edgy e-girl looked at you sideways. I don't even dress alt I just find it spergy behavior in a fashion thread

Being refined and subtle wasn't exactly the point.


Scene and emo girls get compared to e-girls because of the whole "edgy subculture widely popular with teens of today" thing, the comparison is interesting for cultural reasons mostly, but comparing the apparel itself outside of this scope and according to an abstract idea of elegance is useless, especially considering the more subtle e-girl look from >>146938 first and third pictures is pretty much only worn by pickmes and e-whores who need to pander to moids to get more traffic to their onlyfans.

IMO the only type of e-girl that should be compared to scene/emo is the type that has split dyed blunt bangs, red make-up with graphic liner, layered outfit with a bunch of chains and larps as Misa from Death Note. I'm not saying they're free from coomer shit because far from it, but at least there is a little bit more to it and there are actual girls who genuinely like the style and hanging out with each-other like normal subculture kids.

I think the idea of wanting to look cool to your peers rather than to normies is an important point of alternative fashion styles. Something purely made to look hot to regular pedo scrotes is uninteresting.

No. 298248

and that's why it looks like shit. Liking blush and subtle makeup is not "purely looking hot to appeal to pedo scrotes"

This whole look came about when egirl pickmes started doing that ahegao trend, that gross hentai cum face where there is a harsh blush line straight across the face.

I think I miss it because it exemplified a lot of early 2010s trends like the loose tanks with the bandeau.


Come to think of it, that era in general was oddly unsexual. Cropped flounce or swing tops obscured your bust and waist. Yes, people could see your bandeau, but the looseness of the tops made it unclear. Cropped tops were only getting back into style and they weren't tight, they were loose and still obscured your actual body type.

These are all streamers right ? It's the point. It's a base of conventional beauty make-up mixed with anime blush and various elements that are meant to make facial expressions look more "lewd" and cartoony.

>>298266
Didn't say you weren't allowed to have personal tastes nona, I just don't understand judging something completely besides its actual purpose, it's like judging a coffee table by its ability to mow the lawn kek. What I mean is that the streamer/OF brand of e-girl style exists for appeal and to look good online, and not as an actual alternative fashion, so comparing it to something like "Instagram makeup" or even douyin makeup that also have a purpose of looking good on camera and being generally appealing would be more relevant.

Obviously scene looks stupid to a majority of outsiders (same with the alt flavor of tiktok egirl I described), I don't even think it looks good either tbh, but it did its job at being an edgy flashy subculture look for teens and young adults.

I really miss that aesthetic too nona. Like the crystal castles and skins tumblr era from like 2006-2012 right. It was really big here in the uk and iirc the east coast of the US.
People had messy textured hair (either natural and wavy like a mermaid or flat ironed and poker straight and choppy, sometimes jet black, bleach blonde, sometimes with washed out pink or pastel through it) and wore lots and lots of stuff from topshop and thrifted things/stuff from grandmas closet. I remember there was lots of shiny stuff and sequins. Smeared heavy eyeliner, sometimes glittery eyeshadow, with neutral or bare lips. Skins really made that wild party aesthetic popular, lots of rips in stockings, bottles of vodka, pills, cocaine, shirtless guys etc.
