Lolita Explained

Hey all,
I haven't posted in a few weeks so I thought
I'll do a new post for ya'll.

So lately on stardoll there have been alot of lolita inspired items, particular gothic lolita.
What is lolita you ask?
Well in this post I will explain all about lolita, and the different types of lolita.

Lolita is a type of fashion that orignated from Japan, the style is inspired by the Victorian-era of clothing and the Rococo (18th century artist movement and style). The fashion was originally thought to have been partly created to react against the growing exposure of the body and skin in modern society. So instead of people presenting themselves as "sexy", it is said that they are actually presenting themselves as "cute" or "elegant".

So if you hear/read someone they love "Japanese street fashion" or typically dress in this style, lolita is also part of that type of fashion.
