Welcome to Gaia! ::


Welcome to Gothic Lolita Picture Post and Discussion

Announcements


idea The Gothic Lolita guild is now made and has gained more users than the other 3 lolita guild in one night. It seems to grow everyday. It's going so well and everyone is excited weee. Guild is here.

idea First of all I am tired of noobies posting in my thread that they are gothic and blah blah, 666, I r Lucifer as mentioned on page 28. It's funny how the teen goth stereotype post just because they see the word, "gothic" in the title. Gothic can be many more things than a teen label, This Discussion is GOTHIC LOLITA only. If you don't know what gothic lolita is, don't post here. If you would like to find more information on it, read the first post then post here. So please understand before posting anything that Gothic Lolita is a fashion, not a teen label/stereotype.

idea After a while battles worth with a mod and admin, I had to make a slight change within the whole purpose of thise thread. This thread was recently moved to Chatterbox just for having the words "picture post" within the title. So, now the title has been changed to be more focused on discussion. However, you may still post pictures of GL to help give us something to discuss about, like the different types of clothing brought in part by GL.

What is Gothic Lolita?

"Popular style with the teens of Harajuku.There are two types main, EGL and EGA. This fashion was first started/popularized by Mana of the then famous band Malice Mizer that later disbanned. Gothic Lolita clothes have a sometimes very dark (as seen by Mana's clothing label Moi-Mem-Moitie) or sometimes very kawaii (demonstrated by Baby The Stars Shine Bright). The clothes sometime seem to have a fantasy world or Alice and Wonderland feel to them. The most popular Gothic Lolita magazine is a Japanese publication called The Gothic and Lolita Bible.
She donned a frilly bonnet, an apron, a lacy shirt, and a poofy skirt before stepping out of the house. Even though we knew what she was trying to dress like a girl in The Gothic and Lolita Bilbe, she still looked like a child."
(quoted from urbandictionary)


Enjoy. ^^

F.a.q~

What are the Lolita sub-fashions?
Elegant Gothic Lolita

Classical/Country/Sweet Lolita

Industrial Lolita

Elegant Gothic Aristocrat

Is Lolita a "girls" only fashion?
Nope, it doesn't have to be!

Where do you get your lolita clothes?
Most of the clothing is bought online, browse through our clothing links. Some Lolitas even create their own outfit, for sewing tips and tutorials, browse through our How-To links. Links are provided in the Links Sticky.

I would like to purchase a dress from a Japanese online shop but I don't know how to convert Yen into Dollars, help!
A currency converter is
here!

Where do I find Gothic Lolita Bibles?

Please note the following:
"Lolita fashion and the porn Lolita industry have absolutely nothing to do with each other. Not even their target audience, since Lolita fashion is mainly for girls (plus Western/outside of Japan boys) and the lolita porn industry is for sick men.
Lolita fashion and the book/movie about Lolita does not share anything but a common name and maybe a bit of borrowing by the Japanese pop-culture of the name. Other than that, the book/movie Lolita has absolutely nothing to do with the fashion. Yes, I will repeat it until it's driven home to some ignorant people who insist that they are the same."
