Hello everyone
I guess you might have noticed that most of poker cards have a well done art of the ace jacks, kings and queens. (Sometimes the jokers) but I was thinking, have you seen a deck of cards that is poker mixed with the lolita style.
I would like to see them and think about a magic routine with them.

I've seen artwork done for such, but never an actual deck of playing cards. I did once see a "gothic lolita" deck of tarot cards, but they were a horrible representation of the fashion and actually rather hideous. It might be worth it to look into whether or not any of the Japanese brands have released a novelty pack at some point [they put out things like towels, mirrors, bento boxes and the like, so why not playing cards?]. Another idea might be looking up illustrators from the G&LB or brand ads to see if they've released anything similar.

If not, I'm sure you could find a suitably "lolita" deck of cards in another way.

Thank you very much. You know, the closest thing to an elegant-looking tarot deck is the one called "Casanova Tarot" it has elegant, but erotic artwork in every card.

Can you please help me with some lolita brand names please? I can be considered a noob when it comes to this style.

There's an FAQ that has a links list at the top of the main page for the guild that has the URLs for the sites, but the brands from which you're most likely to find those sorts of novelties are Angelic Pretty, Baby, the Stars Shine Bright, Metamorphose, or possibly Innocent World.

BtSSB and AP release novelty items rather often, so they might be the best ones to poke around.

You may also want to check with the EGL community on livejournal; there may be someone there who has information about a particular deck.

Thank you spunty, I'll check those brands and the links here.
You've been very helpful.

sorry for the double posting but, I just wanted to let you know that I can teach you how to elegantly pull out things like a long fan from a small purse. Just in case you want to impress your other lolita or non-lolit friends
