How you know about Lolita? Whether you are wearing a
Lolita dress correctly for a really proper Lolita instead of cosplays Lolita? So what is your idea?
The proper Lolita fashion represents elegance and modesty like a porcelain doll from Victorian and Rococo period. Coplay Lolita combines the elements of proper Lolita fashion and cosplay. It is usually adorned by people who wish to dress in Lolita as more of a costume during anime, sports or other event gatherings. This type of Lolita dresses are normally different from proper Lolita dresses.
1. Cosplay Lolita dress is usually designed by using a kind of satin which is decorated with lots of scratchy laces. It features shiny fabric and are always very short to display quite a lot of skin. The primary reason is the image of nurse or maid characters inspired from anime art. However, a proper Lolita dress needs lightweight cotton of high quality.
2. A proper Lolita dress either has a good balance between the lace and open part or chooses not to use lace embellishment, which depend completely on your preference. But cosplay Lolita dress is swallowed in lace.
3. There is a lack of appropriate undergarment in cosplay Lolita dress. Lolita cosplyer can wear a hoop skirt, a square dance petticoat or no petticoat at all. Hoop skirts can be worn in Lolita, but it is rarely worn well. The Square dace petticoat gives an outward flare shape to the skirt but it can not create the flare with the skirt shape. In this case, you can wear a petticoat or some similar type of padding over the hoop. A proper Lolita normally wears a style of petticoat called a pannier or bloomer. The panniers are composed of two or three layers of crinoline netting worn under Lolita skirt to create a cupcake-like shape. Bloomers refer to lace-trimmed short pants which do not have to wear for a Lolita dress. But it is important to know the bloomer should be worn above the knee.
