Gothic Lolita

    A Gothic Lolita outfit, like any other Lolita style, is very modest. It’s commonly seen with a bell-shaped skirt and puffed sleeves (but not always). The colours are usually made up of dark, rich colours such as the traditional black, burgundy, purple and dark blues. Black and white is a very familiar coordination choice.

    The makeup for this style can range from a simple, natural look to something a bit darker and more dramatic such as having dark eyes with red lipstick, depending on your coordination. A very common mistake, especially for beginners, is the use of black lipstick and a very white face. The reason why this is usually frowned upon is because it takes the elegance away.
    A few common motifs for this style are religious imagery, roses and architecture.


    Some brands of this style include:
Moi-meme-Moitie (also known as MMM and Moitie. This is probably the most known Gothic Lolita brand.)
Atelier Boz 
Antique BeasT
