Gothic Lolita is a subcategory of the Lolita fashion, a street fashion among Japanese female teenagers and, to a lesser extent, men and young women.
Lolita fashion emphasizes Victorian-style and Edwardian fashion girl’s clothing and often aims to imitate the look of Victorian porcelain dolls. The Rococo period has also been defined as an influence of Gothic lolita. Gothic Lolita applies the aesthetics of Gothic fashion to the childlike, pretty Lolita fashion.
Gothic Lolita style is usually a combination of black and white, often black with white lace and typically decorated with ribbons and lace trims. Skirts are knee length and may have a crinoline or petticoat to add volume. Over-knee socks or stockings are popular and white or black tights are also common. Child-like shoes or boots such as Mary Janes, complete the look. Frilly, ruffled or lace-trimmed Victorian blouses are also popular with Gothic Lolitas and designs are usually modest, sometimes with long lace-capped sleeves and/or high-necked blouses.

Why is Mana not mentioned in the description? He’s obviously not the original face behind Gothic Lolita but he’s definetely an influence to the fashion in some way or another.
Well, there are pictures of him on the description.
omg mana
Mmmm hmmm. :)
i find them cute and unique..
Yey mana! ^ gothic lolita is so pretty ^_ i wanna get my hands on those pretty dresses.
Me too!
Nice pictures.
I heard that it was a crossdressing Jrocker who started this fad. Or so I read when I was reading up on current Jrock bands. I never really understood where this style came from, so I looked it up.
MANA DID IT!! MANA DID IT!!! yayayayayay.
Absolutely… it was Mana.
Eh no. Mana did not do it. Mana made it mainstream and brought alot of publicity to it, but did not invent it.
Hmmm…dunno who Mana is but all those pics show gothic loli styles straight from Kitade Nana's closet. She's the Gothic Lolita icon of Japan and Rozen Maiden was practically patterned after her.
I am going to get one for my prom and scare all the boys in my year. That is a fact!!!
Ha! (I will love the look on Hannah Maslins face!!!
)
