- Lolita is a japanese street style inspired by the clothing of the Victorian periods. There are many different types of Lolita and most are about looking cute.
- Lolita was discovered in the 1970's - 1990's.
- Lolita was created because the fans of Malice Mizer(Japanese band), wanted to dress like the band members who wore that type of clothing and because people wanted to dress like they did in the Victorian period but with a modern twist.
- Lolita first originated in Japan.
- The name Lolita was originally a girls' name of spanish origin derived from Lola.
- Lolita has roots that stretch much farther back than 1955. The Lolita dress is inspired by the romantic images of the Victorian era (1837–1901) and the Edwardian era (1901–1910), with influences stretching as far back as the Rococo movement, which reached its height under the reign of Louis XV in the 1730s. However, the Lolita we speak of in terms of fashion differs greatly from its historic ancestors. Our Lolita lives for innocence, luxury, and a life of elegance.
- It was Mana, of the band Malice Mizer, who truly gave rise to the fashion. Although a man, Mana was able to dress convincingly as a beautiful Gothic Lolita female, and he is credited for helping make the style popular in
Mana of the band, Malice Mizer.
