The name Lolita comes from Lolita written by Vladimir Nabokov. Lolita means "impure child". The book is about a middle-aged man having sex with a little girl named Lolita who is only 12 years old. So "Lolita syndrome" refers to pedophilia.
But the meaning of this word in English is very different from that in Japanese. Lolita clothing in Japanese refers to clothing based on Gothic and ancient clothing. This kind of dress is based on the old doll skirt, with lace, but not only that. Another feature is that the skirt is particularly short, probably over the knee.
Lolita has the following styles:
Gothic Lolita: the perfect combination of Gothic and Lolita. Black and white, knee-length lace skirt, lots of lace.
Classic Lolita: fluffy style, bright colors, a lot of decoration, lace is its characteristic.
Elegant Gothic Lolita: Traditional classical style, very close to Gothic Lolita, a little vampire feeling.
Elegant Gothic aristocratic (elegant Gothic aristocratic) men's wear style, including long skirts or trousers, and shirts or coats with buttons at the neckline.
Of course, this is only a relatively large classification, and it really doesn't stop there. There are many types of both. There is also a kind of Lolita that is terrible, such as white clothes covered with blood, bandages, skulls and so on. There are also some noble designs such as crosses and crowns.
Basically, Gothic and Lolita can be said to be a style of clothing.
Just like punk, 109 spice girl and board clothes, it is the general name of a clothing style.
In Hong Kong, there are very few people who like Goth and Lolita.
Because ordinary people rarely have the opportunity to understand this kind of clothing culture,
I don't know. It's not surprising,
So when you wear goth &; Lolita will be stared at with strange eyes when she goes shopping.
Some people will put Goth &; Lolita looks like Cosplay, absolutely not! ! ! ! !
Gothic & Lolita is a dressing style, and Cosplay is a dressing activity. Don't make a mistake or get confused! !
It is not ridiculous for some people to have this misunderstanding, because many comic characters wear Goth &; Lolita took it,
Like the wisdom in The Magician of Connor and Cupid,
Are very popular characters, so maybe others will take Goth &; Lolita and Cosplay are confused.
Goth and Lolita are different:
Gothic culture has a long history abroad, but it can't be introduced in detail because of lack of information.
Elegant Gothic Lolita (EGL) is composed of Mana (the Knotter Mana (Malic Mizer),
It means elegant Goethe doll, which is familiar.
According to Mana, EGL is not an ordinary doll. She has angels and demons in her heart.
EGL dolls give people a sense of death, but death is not a complete death, but a rebirth from here, which has eternal significance.
Living is not living, but living in a static state.
Many people like EGL, on the one hand, because of its charm, on the other hand, it may give people a sense of fashion.
EGL is mainly black, Mana usually wears EGL, and she also has a Gothic and Lolita clothing store.
Lolita can be interpreted as sweet love Lolita, which means lovely doll, just like dolls in ancient Europe.
Besides, Alice-style clothes are also very popular.
Lovely Lolita is mainly white, pink and pink-blue, with a lot of gel.
It is a doll image full of innocence, innocence, sweetness and super cuteness.
After the washing of Japanese culture, Goth &; Lolita & Punk are often mixed together.
Some Goths smell like punk, or Lolita smells like death. Some people may not like mixing them together.
But personally, as long as you don't forget the basic culture and background, how about changing your style! ?
Invariance will not create more beautiful things.
Gothic & Lolita is a dress with a strong sense of existence.
