DOLLY TEA PARTY II

The GothLoli style has its roots in the 70's but consolidated itself in the 90's as a strong subculture that nowadays is impacting the West as well as its homeland, the East. It's influenced by Victorian and Edwardian children's clothing, mixed with Rococco and 80's Gothic, giving the style a unique and recognizable pattern of dressing up. The Gothic Lolita, being a subgenre of the Lolita Style uses darker clothes and make up, but still in a delicate way, and that's what differences it with Western Gothic Styles. It never loses purity and inocense, or at least, it is always playing with these concepts.The style has been portraited in many Mangas and Animes in Japan and there are many Online Stores where you can order your own outfit and garments. You can visit: http://www.lacarmina.com/ where you'll find an online shop, galleries and information about the style.
