FAIRY LOLITA
Fairy
Lolita is a mix of Fairy Kei and Lolita Fashion. It takes the general
silouhette of a Lolita outfit as well as the doll-like appereance, combined
with the general aesthetic of a Fairy Kei outfit.
Silhouette:
In
Fairy Kei fashion you wear loosy clothes, so there is no difference between
bust, waist and hips. But for Fairy Lolita you have to keep the typical Lolita
silouhette of a small waist and a poofy cupcake-shaped skirt. Though the skirt
can be shorter than knee-length.
Aesthetic:
In
short, the look of a Fairy Kei can be described as a young fairy with an 80's
twist.
First
you use elements of 80's fashion. That means cartoon prints like Care Bears,
colorful leggins, legwarmers, sneakers, bow belts in loud colors, scrunchies or
big glasses.
Then
you make it look fairy by using only pastel colors, adding a lot of chiffon and
tulle to your outfit, and wear a lot of ruffles and cute prints.
Why
is the fairy young? Because toys and plushes are also basic accessoires for a
Fairy Kei. You can wear them as a bag, pin them to your clothes or tie them to
a necklace.
Accessoires:
So
the aesthetic is all about Fairy Kei, now how to add Lolita? Of course wear a
typical shaped dress or skirt. Then add headbows or bonnets, wrist cuffs,
knee-high/over-knee socks, Mary-Jane shoes or lace gloves to your outfit, to
give it a dolly look.
Styling:
Go
for a dolly eye make-up and typical Lolita-styled hair. When it comes to hair
colors, pastels and blonde are most common to look more fairy-like.
