Ega + Egl

For those who don't know it's EGL (Elegant Gothic ******) and EGA (Elegant Gothic Aristocrat). It's a style mostly known in Japan.

Now for those who know what it looks like and what not. I need help finding websites that I can think of coming up with new Long Skirts to make (I am a guy btw) And if possible a companie that sells patters to buy.

Okay, first of all, are you looking to cross-dress, a la Mana? ...Or are you looking for male fashions?

If you're looking for male fashions, that should be easy, seeing as the look for EGA is basically the same damn thing as Western goth's "vampire" or "Victorian" looks. Capes, hats, old-fashioned 3-piece suits...whatever. You could also go the "Dandy" route, and get a little fancier.

For boys there's a counter-point to EGL, called "Kodona". That look is basically somewhere between Oliver Twist, and what an English schoolboy would wear up until the 1930's. Think grey or black, knee-length shorts, penny loafers, knee-socks, button-down shirts, and a Newsboy hat.

Actually I found out "kodona" is not a real Japanese fashion, but more of a western word that arrose from the cosplay culture. It seems to be a western contrraction of two Japanese words that escape me at the moment. However, I won't crap on anyone for using it as that's how the term comes to have a real meaning. As for the "style" think little boy goes punk/goth. And you can find male ******s too.

H. naoto and atelier boz have some intersting things if you have the cash for it.

I'm sure if you took some time to alter some patterns you could make some very interesting things. I alter store-bought patterns myself, they never seem to be quite what I'm looking for, but they do help if they are being used as a guide.
