Sweet Lolita
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sweet Lolita or amaloli - (あまロリ) is a subcategory of Lolita fashion that takes its main inspiration from Victorian girl's fashion, but is also influenced by Rococo and Shōjo manga. It focuses on the child-like aspect of the fashion and features pastels, gingham, lace and ribbons emphasizing cuteness. Colours are light pastels, black paired with white, also colourful prints with cute themes are widely used. The garments worn are one pieces (dresses), jumper skirts, cutsews, blouses and skirts. The shoes worn usually have lower heels than shoes worn with the other styles of Lolita. Common accessories are hairbows or headdresses, berets or miniature top hats and purses. Sometimes a doll or plush toy is carried. A popular example of this fashion style appears in the movie Shimotsuma Monogatari (下妻物語 - Kamikaze Girls in the US), worn by the protagonist Momoko.
Angelic Pretty is a Japanese Lolita fashion brand that carries sweet by sophisticated Sweet Lolita clothing. Less common colors in Lolita such as green and purple sometimes appear in their designs. Some items in the Angelic line would be considered Country Lolita.
