A little history about the goth subculture in Japan...
It's generally NOT similar to what we think of as "goth"
as far as what we see goth followers wearing in the USA.
This particular style of dressing, called Elegant Gothic Lolita
has many different aspects, but one of the "looks" of the EGL (Elegant Gothic Lolita)
generally consists of babydoll dresses with tons of ruffles and lace
lots of tiny bows are also not unusual
tights or knee-high socks are generally worn
along with big clunky Mary Jane type platform shoes
Hair is usually the natural black
but also sometimes in shades of brown, and actually
NOT in all the crazy shades of colors we normally associate
with the term "goth", though wigs are sometimes worn,
and is worn either straight with bangs or in sausage curls ala Shirley Temple style.
Headgear is usually some sort of lacy and ruffly bonnet
but can also be a cute little top hat worn askew
and a big oversized purse is also a must-have.
