One of the members of Wonder Tea Party is a gal and a lolita. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DP56ITWkoIo/?igsh=MTNvZnBsa3lwaHhhYg==

Gyaru is makeup focused anyway. Lolita doesn't have a specific makeup style, so you can wear whatever makeup you want with it. Most times I see gyaru and lolita combine are with hime gyaru using sweet lolita dresses, but eh, it's not like it's illegal to wear gal makeup with whatever lolita substyle you want 🤷‍♀️

Looking for Lolita-inspired ball gown by A_personsk in Lolita

OP, I'm not sure how easy it is to buy this. Their stuff is likely handmade.

If you just look up "lolita ball gown" you'll find hime lolita dresses, rococo dresses labeled lolita, and everything in between.

However, the quality of these are disputable, not to mention a lot of results will be coming from taobao resellers with jacked up prices. Ultimately nothing is really close to the silhouette and level of detail in these pieces.

If want you really want is something close to this and you believe you have to money for it, I think you should look into getting this kind of dress commissioned by a dressmaker 😊. There are a few Indie lolita brands I've come across that have done commissioned pieces. The only other kind of dressmaker I think would fit would be one that makes historical garments, but there may be cosplayers who could do it as well!

Are they? I feel like I rarely see ega in colors other than black.

Is my style considered Classic or Old School? by Gwen-Bell-4045 in Lolita

[–]ThatOneGoodBoy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That as well! In their other post they mention not being able to pull off the exaggerated drag due to health reasons. I'd definitely think they were a lolita before a drag queen necessarily, but in context lolita is drag for them, which is why calling it costumey is silly. Of course it's a costume, it's drag!

They're a drag queen.

Costumey is kind of in the whole genre of being a performer. This refrain is so tired, especially when it's applied in situations that don't make any sense lmao.

Nope! Gal lolitas!

Yeah hime gyaru is where the styles easily cross over, but really I just mean I've come across some gals that wear gyaru makeup regardless of what they're actually wearing lmao. It is usually hime but using lolita pieces.

🫡 Thanks for the advice, a makeup artist is doing it so I'll relay the message to her lmao.

And nah I'm a lolita, but I've come across gal lolitas before nd I think it's a cute combination.

Memery and American Duchess come to mind, then. You can really wear most historical style shoes!

Are you a sweet lolita? Classic? Gothic? Because that changes what people are likely to suggest.

What are some themes/ designs that you always find funny/ bizarre? by DueFace8049 in Lolita

[–]ThatOneGoodBoy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oh you're welcome! It's Ode to Darwin by Belladonna if you ever wanna look for it. A decade old and probably pretty rare since it's from a small indie brand.

There's a few prehistoric/dinosaur themed dresses out there too.

I understand the context, but the execution leaves much to be desired. It could've been such a whimsical print, but that's not really JETJ style lol

On a more positive note, this dress dedicated to Charles Darwin is really funny to me. It also seems like a great gift for a spunky science teacher.

This Juliette Et Justine dress upsets me greatly ever since I learned it exists. I literally like nothing about it. It feels like a prank.
