Peculiarities
There are many subcultures in Japan, people come up with very original ways of self-expression and unusual outfits will surprise no one. Lolita style is one such trend. Although it appeared back in the 70s of the last century, popularity came to it a little later, in the 90s., thanks to Japanese musicians who came up with original images and then released a clothing line.
The concept of the style is based on a combination of tenderness, fragility, innocence and infantilism. Often this is deliberate childishness, which manifests itself when choosing an outfit and accessories - they resemble things for little girls.
This style is as feminine as possible, it does not involve trousers, jeans and shorts.
