Gothic Lolita is a fashion style popular among Japanese
youth. Usually worn by girls, the image is that of a Victorian doll, with
pale skin, neat hair, knee- or mid-thigh-length Victorian dresses,
pinafores, bloomers, stockings and shoes or boots. It can be seen as a
counter-reaction to the ganguro look.
Sub-styles include elegant gothic lolita or EGL (with a monochromatic
palette), classical or country gothic lolita (pastels), elegant gothic
aristocrat or EGA (essentially the same for men) and industrial gothic
lolita (including PVC, leather, zippers, chains and other Punk fashion
elements.)
