Oriental Lolita style
After the original emergence of this subculture, influenced by historical events, culture, music, and movies, Lolita experienced changes and created new directions. That way, the palace doll fashions in the movie "The story of my next wife" had a profound influence on the Oriental lolita. And it was way more different compared to the traditional Lolita. Here are some differences.
Traditional lolita is simple, reduced, elegant. Already established patterns are used, white lace details and layers are present, accessories like headdresses, knee-length socks and more. Knee-length dresses and skirts, blouses, are all that outlines of the traditional lolita style. From this style, all other lolita styles evolved. Most traditional lolita kits stick to the basic Lolita mold. Shoes and accessories are more functional than extremely looking. Makeup is simple, with calm and natural colors and jewelry is complicated and unique in design.
On the other hand, Oriental Lolita is vibrant, brings in a floral design, plenty of lace of various colors and embroidery. There is a mix of Chinese and Japanese culture, so you can find a glimpse of traditional costumes in Oriental Lolita dresses. Long sleeves with plenty of material and lace, waist straps, high collars, These are all novelties that oriental lolita style brings in. The palace dresses and gowns were no longer long, now lavish with knee-length length, finished with a layer of elaborate lace embroidery. So Japan's lolita dresses got a new upgraded look.
Although it is not a practical or casual outfit for young people, every proud Lolita will wear her kits in every possible situation, at home or while going out with her friends and boyfriend for a walk, a movie, shopping, even for coffee or dancing. Also, each of them will make it clear that this choice of clothing is not cosplaying, but the usual style of clothing.
