Hi Hi! I have been REALLY sick all of November. I'm still recovering and trying to make my way back online and back into the content groove. Part of my sickness is a double ear infection so if the sound is off in this video I apologize. Hoping for a full recovery soon and I still have things to edit and more to work on! I hope all of you are well!
cutsews are any clothing gamrent in lolita that is made from a like strechy t-shirt material, cotton jersey most likely, brands make cutsew dresses as well sometimes not just tops , I used to be obsessed with them bc they are more casual and can be more comfy bc of the strechiness, I didn't know they're constructed mostly with a serger tho that bit is news to me but i just checked my cutsews to see for myself, you live and learn !! A serger is a type of sewing machine, mostly used for finishing the raw edges of fabric but you can sew seams with it as well, if you look inside a t-shirt at the seams you'll see watch a serged edge looks like
Specifying the serger in the cutsew question is odd. Yes it will most likely be sewn with a serger, but so are most clothing items. While sergers are handy sewing stretchy fabric, I could still sew a stretchy frilly shirt with my regular sewing machine and it would not be less of a cutsew.
I’m a beginner sewer and a fan of Lolita fashion since 2019 (I discovered it via Safiya Nygaard’s video and been obsessed ever since) I’m currently working on my first ever lolita dress! I’ll try to post it when done if anyone’s interested, I’ll update this comment when finished 🤞🏾💕🎀
I'm glad I stopped the video to take the test! I got everything right except for when Closet Child opened, but...I am also 60 and I bought GLB#1 when it first came out, so don't feel bad. :) The cutsew thing is a trick question, btw. A stretchy top made on a serger is the lolita-specific definition. "Cutsew" is a term of art in sewing for any casual top created by cutting and sewing, but obviously that's not the lolita term! I would mess up the Bath and Body Works quiz because I don't like Bath and Body Works, hahah. BTW, "margaret" is a loanword that means "daisy" in Japanese, that's why it's in so many print names. It is also the name of a long running manga magazine :)
I tried the first test and I got 75/100. I just entered the fashion like early 2010s. Not familiar with old Lolita facts, so I made a mistakes on that part.
I was a bit shocked you didn't know who Heart--E was, but then I thought about it a little and considered it might not be common knowledge for people who started in the late 2000s or later. Like usual I was terrible at the prints because my wardrobe is mainly old school and print questionnaires usually focus on 2010 or later. I own one borderprint and it's from 2007. For the general quiz I got the question about Closet Child wrong. My first answer was 1998, but then I remembered reading they were already open throughout the 90s so I guessed 1992. Both wrong of course. This kind of content is really fun imo. I hope you feel better soon.

Oh, I 1000% failed the hard test, but the bath and body vs print test was hilariously difficult.
A Thousand Wishes is a classic B&BW scent
this was really fun :D
