My friend and I went to Anime Banzai this year and had a ton of fun! I taught two Lolita Panels (I was soooo nervous since this was my first time) and I think everything went fantastically. A few of the local lolis came and showed their support. It was so nice to see everyone, and great to be able to talk to those studying Lolita fashion. I love to talk to people who have a genuine curiosity, and had fun answering questions. Hopefully I made everyone feel at ease!
Here are a few pictures from my time at the convention:
Ghostbuster loli! Who ya gonna call?
Teaching the panel.
This guy put a steampunk look together that was understated and very cool.
One of the local lolis in a skirt she made herself. She's great!
AND a bonus pic of my cosplay during the con:
Shiemi from Blue Exorcist. Yay!
To the reader: Have you ever been to a Lolita Panel or Class? What would you like to see in one?
Both your coordinate and cosplay look great! You're awesome since you've put on two lolita panels.
ReplyDeleteI've been to one or two Lolita 101 panels. I am usually in the Fanime lolita fashion show that is paired up with the info panel so I've never hosted a panel myself--just participated as a model. I like the idea of fashion shows paired up with lolita 101 panels. It helps give the audience an idea of all the styles and personality in person versus just a powerpoint.
