> Ranting incoming
I'm into sweet personally, but I have fond memories of punk lolita because it's what my sister was into. Modern punk just doesn't feel "punk" anymore. Like earlier in the thread, punk has just become tartan+black and maybe studs or spikes. There's a sort of punk attitude that is just gone from lolita, whether it be because lolita fashion is just about looks nowadays (in comparison, minimalist fashion usually incorporates transparency in clothing manufacturing, and most minimalists are marie kondo enthusiasts) or because lolita dresses are now a status symbol, with people wanting the newest AP release just because it's the newest thing. I don't think I'll see anyone in lolita going off the walls to dress punk and yell at the government, but modern punk lolita feels a lot more like pic related: more refined in the details, a mixture of gothic and ero, and less about tartan and more about breaking lolita "rules". Dismiss this rant from the crazy old lolita, but it'd be nice to see someone fresh in the punk grounds instead of imitations of old outfits.
