If you are probably wondering what is lolita fashion, we got you. It is a Japanese-born style inspired by Victorian fashion and clothing from the rococo period. The style came to be when young women had a desire to dress in a way that discounted men’s opinions. Lolita style is characterized by a particular silhouette achieved by wearing petticoats as undergarments underneath sweet dresses or skirts.
As many people don’t know how the name lolita fashion came to be, it is believed that it complemented the eccentric and feminine fashion it is. The style was introduced in the Harajuku streets back in the 90s and had its appearance in magazines like Kera, The Gothic, and Lolita Bible. The dress patterns and clothing were worn by Visual Kei style bands, especially Mana of Malice Mizer, which was the first gothic band in 1999.
There are a number of aesthetics related to the dollish clothing, such as Kawaii fashion with its cute imagery and brightly-colored babydoll dresses. We also have pastel goth fashion that takes the dark elements of goth and mixes it with warm pastel colors like pink and purple. So whether it is a pastel or a kawaii dress you are looking for, or one with a Victorian-era twist, find simple dresses to style an over-the-top outfit.
