If
you’re going for the aristocratic, yet cute look, then you should
think about wearing Lolita fashion. Lolita is a fashion subculture
from Japan, but is heavily influenced by children’s clothing from
the Victorian and Edwardian era. It also draws inspiration from the
Rococo period. The unique and distinct feature of Lolita is a
characteristic look of cuteness.
Now,
you’re probably thinking, “well, isn’t that for little girls?”
Ordinarily, you’d be right, but in recent times, Lolita fashion and
is now worn by ladies of all ages. In fact, it has reappeared on
fashion shows and catwalks all over the world. No one’s ever too
old to look old after all.
The
style originated in the 1970s in Japan rather quietly, but in the 90s
somewhat merged with urban street fashion and became much more
popular. It signature look includes wide skirts, lots of lace, floppy
bows on the head and so on
Lolita Characteristics and Charm
The
main characteristic of the Lolita fashion is the skirt’s volume,
usually in a bell or A-shape. Other components that make up the
Lolita wardrobe include, a blouse (with long or short sleeves),
paired with a skirt or over a dress. If you’re looking to go full
Victorian, you could go with knee-length or ankle socks, tights,
paired with high heels or flat shoes to enhance that cute look.
Part of
the charm of the Lolita fashion is that sense of class and
aristocracy that comes from Victorian or Edwardian style clothing,
without necessary looking “stuffy” or “old”. With the Lolita
style of fashion, you retain that “awwww” factor that little
girls get when they wear their Sunday best.
Ashlyn Smith, a lover of Lolita fashion, had this to say about the style
“It makes me feel feminine, creative and unique. I’m dressing 100
percent for myself, not necessarily trying to impress anyone else”.
Sounds good doesn’t it?
Classical Lolita
Lolita
fashion has quite a few variants under it, from major substyles like
gothic, sweet and classic, to lesser popular ones like sailor,
country, punk, etc.
Classical
Lolita is more or less Lolita fashion that is more directly related
to Edwardian and Victorian style. It is considered a more mature
style than other styles such as the Gothic or sweet Lolita style. Its
major characteristic is simple print dresses that is relatively
subtle, that means there are lesser frills and lace, enhancing that
mature look. Classic Lolita fashion is ideal for ladies that want to
focus on elegance. The style is all about muted colors, floral prints
and A-line skirts.
Some of
the substyles that fall under the Classic style are the Palace style ,Princess Lolita , British
nobility,Victorian retro and Rococo style.
Palace
style:
Gothic
Lolita is a shade heavier than the classic Lolita style, and most
times, but not always, contains a lot of black. It incorporates heavy
boots, lots of lace and Rococo-era themed models.
Sweet
Lolita on the other hand, is much more girly than the classic
version. It has more lace and frills, but captures the opposite
aesthetic. This style utilizes a lot of pink, parasols, and excessive
embellishments to project a sweet and babyish look.
Princess
Lolita:
Classic
Lolita style features two types of fabrics mainly, patch work and
floral prints. Traditionally, Lolita fabrics feature floral prints,
as well as lace, for classical Lolita however, in the bid to project
that sense of elegance, uses less lace and more of fabrics. Generally
speaking, for classic Lolita, the floral or patchwork fabric is more
or less the base, and then lace is added subtly to just retain that
Lolita look. As more lace is added, the style shifts and tends
towards sweet Lolita. Classic Lolita is also quite tame with colours,
with a focus on lighter and neutral colours.
Victoria
retro style:
