But today on my channel, we are going to be talking about lolita fashion

今日はロリータファッションについて話します！

But before we do that we need to get out of this decora style

その前に

And into lolita style, so we will do that now!

ロリータファッションに着替えなきゃ！

Hey! We are back! In lolita fashion

ロリータファッションに変身！

We are! Look at that!

みてみて♪

I need a bow actually

リボン必要だね

So cute!

可愛い〜

I kept the same makeup as before

メイクはさっきと同じです

It kinda works with all the pink sweet lolita fashion that I have on

このドレスと合うので

It looks gorgeous, so make sure to check out the video where we did that transformation

その変身動画も見てね！

We also just did another video on Cathy Cat's channel

キャットのチャンネルにも動画アップので

So please watch that! After you watch this one, of course

そっちも見てね〜この動画見終わってから♪

So we're gonna talk about the rules of lolita fashion

ロリータファッションのルールについて話します！

And all the details that I have no idea about

私は全然詳しくないので

I thought that was really interesting, so I figured you guys would too

面白いと思って

So yeah could you go over some of the important basic rules

基本のルールね

If you're just getting into lolita fashion, what do you need to know

ロリータファッションを始めたいと思ってる人のため

So that you don't totally screw up

失敗しないように

General rule is: Don't show too much skin

ルール＃１：肌をあんまり見せないこと

Right, it's a very modest fashion

そうだね！

As you can see I'm wearing a full blouse

長袖のブラウスを着てます

And the skirt is right down to my knees

スカートもひざまでで、

And I've got socks covering my legs completely

靴下が長くて足まったく見えないです

Really the only skin you can see is a little bit of neck!

見えるのは首ぐらいだね！

You're wearing a jumper skirt right now to go with the blouse

シャーラが着てるのはジャンパースカートと言って

I'm wearing an OP (One piece)

私はOPを着てます （ワンピース）

My shoulders are pretty much covered, there is a bit of arm

肩が見えないけど、腕は見えてます

But if I was wearing it like even more OTT I should wear something frilly to cover my hands

本当はレースの手袋など付けた方がいいかもしれない

And again, my skirt is really long as well

私のスカートも長いです

No one can see this even if I jump, but it's really long!

ジャンプしても見えないけど、長いですよ！

I feel safer in this than other fashion

他のファッションより安全ですねw

It's a style that many girls like

女の子に人気なスタイルですよ

Even if you're very self conscious, like you have big hips

ヒップがデカくても

You can cover that up! No one can see my hips in this humungous dress!

ドレスで隠せるよね！

It's not sexy! Not at all!

セクシーじゃないです

It's not a fetish, and it's not supposed to be sexy

フェチではないし、セクシーではない

I mean there are many other things about lolita fashion

まあ、ロリータファッションは色々あるので

If you're really interested, be sure to look that up online

興味あればネットで調べるのもいいと思います！

There's the EGL community and there's a couple of YouTubers who talk about lolita fashion

EGLコミュニティもあるし、ロリータファッションのユーチューバーもいる

I'm one of the YouTubers who talk about lolita fashion

私がその１人です

And yeah get lots of information going

そこでいろんなこと学べます

Don't forget to wear a petticoat under your dress

ドレスの下にペチコートを着るのも

That's another one, very important

大事です

You need to look like a cupcake!

カップケーキの形を目指せ！

Should be nice and poofy

ふわっとしてほしい

So we have lots of layers under our skirts

レヤーいっぱいです！

Lots and lots of layers

いっぱいいっぱい！

Usually one will be enough but we layered it up a little bit because we did decora

本当は一つでいいけどね

What are some common mistakes that you see people doing?

ロリータファッションでよく間違えることは何？

Common mistakes... like wearing something that is not lolita fashion

ロリータファッションじゃない服を着る

Something that's too short, or wear a jumper skirt without a blouse

スカートが短すぎるとか、ブラウスを着ないとか

Oh so to wear this dress without anything underneath

ジャンパースカートの下に必ずブラウスを着ること

Yeah that's a really big mistake

それは大変ですね

Some people go "I got this lolita dress!" and they got the right brand and everything

ジャンパースカートを買って、それがロリータだからそれでいいと思って

Then they don't wear the blouse underneath

下にブラウスを着ない

That's one of the things that people will point out

それはよく人に気付かれるよ

Oh no! Omg! That much skin :O

肌見え過ぎー！って

Are there any rules about which colours to wear?

色のルール何かありますか？

Like say I'm wearing a pink dress should I be wearing all pink accessories

例えば、このドレスはピンクなのでアクセもすべてピンクにしなきゃとか

It depends on which style you're doing

スタイルによります

Sweet lolita was a big thing and it was like bright wigs and circle lenses

スイートロリータはすごくカラフルウイッグとか、カラコンと

and fake lashes...

つけまつげを付けます

And that style is actually slightly decreasing recently

でも最近あんまりスイートロリータを見ないです

And there's a classical lolita fashion boom that's coming on right now

最近はクラシカルロリータが人気なので

So many girls decide to wear normal hair

普通の髪型が多いです

and more browns and greens

色は茶色と緑が多い

So it really depends on which style you're going for

なので、スタイルによりますね

And obviously you try to keep a balance with your dress

後はドレスといいバランスを取るのも大事です

So I wouldn't put bright green on you

例えばシャーラに緑のアクセを付けるのはダメ

The obvious colour clashing

そうだね

Generally what all the big people (Aoki Misako as well) say is don't be afraid

青木美沙子など有名なロリータがよく言うのは

to do something wrong in lolita fashion

「失敗することを怖がらないで」

Many people are afraid and they won't do it

怖いからロリータに挑戦しない人が多い

Of course the community can sometimes be cruel

時々ひどく言われるけど

But if you don't brave it, you're never going to create a new fun style

それを無視しないと新しいスタイルが生まれない

And you'll learn, if you make a mistake and people point it out you'll know next time to wear a blouse

ブラウスを着ないで、何か言われたら次は絶対着るから勉強にもなりますね

Exactly!

そうそう！

Be nice to each other, that another thing I wanna tell, be nice to each other girls!

みんなに優しくすることは

It's important

大事です！

What are the different lolita fashion styles?

ロリータってどんなスタイルありますか？

Sweet. Very very sweet, very OTT sweet

スイートロリータ

Pastel colours, and the prints usually have sweet patterns or candy themes

パステルカラー、ドレスはスイーツ柄が多い

And the circus, which is what I'm wearing, it's more rare

私が着てるのはサーカスロリータ

It has a circusy pattern on as well, and you can see the bow tie here

ドレスがサーカス柄でボータイも付けてます

Lots of stripes, oh and show your socks!

シマシマが多いね！靴下見せてあげて！

Gothic lolita obviously, most people know gothic lolita

ゴシックロリータはみんな知ってますね

But that's kinda really died down a lot

最近あんまり見ないけどね

It's all classic now

最近はクラシックばっかり

You don't see much at all

見ないよね

Punk lolita you were mentioning

パンクロリータ

Wa lolita you see

和ロリータ

Wa lolita? Like super Japanese

和ロリータって？日本っぽい服？

Yeah you have like Japanese sleeves

そうそう、着物みたいな袖とか

We don't see it as much

あんまり見ないけど

There's also ero lolita

エロロリータ

Oh what's that like?

エロロリータはどんな感じ？

Ero lolita is a lot shorter, and a bit more sexy

ドレスが短くて、ちょっとセクシーなスタイル

It's like the thing where people wouldn't wear it to a lolita meet

ロリータが集まるイベントとかに着ないけど

But it exists

時々見ます

And there's guro lolita

グロロリータ

Again you only see that around Halloween

ハロウィンでしか見ないです

Like you have that pink dress but you would splatter it in blood

そのドレスに血をつけたりして

What would you recommend for someone who is just getting into lolita fashion?

ロリータを始めたい人へとアドバイスありますか？

If you are just starting out with lolita fashion

始めようと思ったばかりの時は

many people say they don't have enough money

お金があんまりないかもしれない

Usually those dresses range from 20,000~30,000 yen

ドレスは普通２〜３万します

Once you get the bow and everything it gets really pricey

リボンとかも買うとけっこうします

Many people get discouraged by that

多くの人がそれでやる気をなくす

First get to know your community, see who's in your area

まずはコミュニティを知ることが大事です

And then sometimes the community will sell things

物を売ったりするので

Second hand is the way to go girls

中古で買うのはすごくいいですよ！

You can A. Get brand B. Have people that can give you advice on how to wear that brand

ブランドが買えるし、前に着てた人からアドバイス貰えるし

Sometimes you can also see someone who's already worn that brand

前に着てた人の写真とかが見れます

And then you can start and slowly work around it

そこから自分の好みも入れて

If you just start out and you don't have much money, I'd say save up for a skirt

最初はスカートを一個買うのはいいと思います

That way you have one lolita skirt

スカートを一個買って

And then just need a blouse with a nice round collar

ブラウスも買って

Then you're already there! Get some nice socks that match your skirt

合う靴下を買えば

and you're pretty much on the way

だいたい出来上がりです！

and get some accessories that mirror what's on the skirt

その後スカートとマッチするアクセとかを買えばOKです！

That'd be the easiest because then you'd only have to buy one brand item

それが一番いいと思います。ブランドのもの一つだけ買うので

And then from there on you can build your way up

そこからどんどん増やせば

Once you earn a little bit more, you can go one step up and buy a JSK

お金は少しあれば次はJSKを買います

Which is mine!

これですね！

So usually JSK is a like jumper skirt

JSKはジャンパースカートのことです

So you wear a blouse underneath

下にブラウスを着ます

Mentioned that earlier, don't forget to wear the blouse!

ブラウスを忘れないようにね！

JSK is really nice because it's easier to wash as well

JSKは洗いやすいからいいです

Once you get the makeup, lolitas usually wear quite a bit of makeup, so ew

メークとかが服に付いちゃうので

So it's easier to wear, to wash, to take care of

こっちはブラウスだけ洗えばOKです

So you get the full lolita look, but you don't have the hassle of hand washing it

手洗いとかしなくても大丈夫です

And then yours is called an OP, a one piece

キャットが着てるのはOP

So all in one, a full dress

そう、ワンピースです

Sometimes OPs are not that popular because you go Oh god, how am I gonna wash this~

OPは洗いにくいからそんな人気ではない

They usually give you the best style

着やすいけど

But also they sometimes give you less freedom

あんまりカスタマイズできない

Because now you can be like "Oh let's take a pink blouse!"

JSKだとブラウスの色変えたりできます

Yeah you could switch it up a bit

そうだね！

What kind of hairstyles are best for lolita fashion?

ロリータファッションはどんな髪型がいい？

Like are twin tails pretty common?

ツインテールとか？

Anything that's cute and innocent

可愛ければOKです！

Many girls just have their hair open, long hair

普通の長いストレート髪よく見ます

Curls, long curls sometimes braids

カールや三つ編みも

They only thing I don't see that much is short hair

あんまり見ないのはショートだけ

Like a bob, really short hair you don't really see that much in lolita fashion

ボブスタイルとかね

But doesn't mean that you can't wear lolita fashion

でも絶対ダメってことじゃないですよ

If you accessorise nice and have a cute hat with it, could totally go for it

可愛いアクセとか、帽子とか使えばショートでもOKです

Why do people enjoy dressing in lolita fashion?

みんなはそれぞれの理由あると思います

Everyone has different reasons for wearing lolita fashion

プリンセスになりたい人もいるし

Some girls wanna have that princess look

ロリータファッションを着ると気分が上がる人もいるし

Sometimes it's just the way it makes you feel when you wear it

このファッションを着る時自分に自信が付く人もいるし

Some people just say it gives them so much confidence to wear the fashion

こんな可愛い服を着てるから

To be that way, to look that cute

私はロリータと原宿ファッションのコミュニティが好きです

I actually like lolita fashion and harajuku fashion for the community

いろんな人に出会えるから

and the people that you meet, because it's such a nice mix

金曜日にオシャレして出かける人と同じように

And how other people will go out and dress up on a Friday night

私たちはこの可愛い服を着て

That's what you do, you dress yourselves up together and make yourselves look pretty

一緒にティーパーティなどをします

and you go out and have cups of tea and talk about stuff

それがすごく素敵だと思います

So I think that's a beautiful thing, I like that

すごく勉強になりました！

Alright guys, well I hope you learned something! I certainly did

ロリータファッションを着るのは初めてでした

This is my first time ever dressing in lolita
