Gothic Lolita
Gothic Lolita (Japanese: ゴシック・アンド・ロリータ/ゴスロリ 哥特洛丽塔) is a fashion subculture that originated from the European goth subculture and is also a branch of the Japanese Lolita fashion. It was originally based on traditional European clothing and then adopted by the Japanese street culture in the 1980s. Gothic Lolita combines the loveliness of Lolita and the darkness and mystery of the gothic style and is renowned for its abundant use of black elements such as lace, ruffles, and straps.
