Lolita fashion is quickly gaining vast popularity within Japanese street style and is constantly evolving with the addition of numerous sub categories. One of these is the Male Lolita, and although commonly promoted in fiction, comics and animation, the style is still relatively unpopular within Japanese street style. However it is a growing sub category of Lolita fashion and is known by several different names.
These are Ouji, Kodona, Aristocrat, Dandy, and Brolita.
Ouji
Ouji, meaning 'prince' is a Japanese fashion that is considered the male version of Lolita fashion and takes its style from the Victorian era and young boy's clothing at the time.
Kodona
Kodona is a word used by people outside of Japan to describe gothic and Lolita clothing. The literal meaning however is 'someone being at puberty age who is neither an adult nor a child'. It is recognised as a fashion outside of Japan, but not so much in its country of origin.
Aristocrat
Aristocratic style is a lot more mature than pure Lolita style, however it does link to the male Lolita style when considering the gothic elements and colour palettes. It does link strongly with the Western 'Romantic Gothic'.
Corsets, fitted jackets with tail coats, frilly shirts, top hats and veils are some of the more common items of clothing worn.
Dandy
A Dandy is a man who finds physical appearance to be of high importance. The style was mainly around in late 18th and early 19th century Britain, and can now be linked to the male Lolita style with the jackets, knee high socks and frilly shirts.
Brolita
Unlike the more masculine forms of Lolita above, Brolitas are the ones who go the extra mile to look more feminine by wearing outfits including dresses and wigs.
Just like the female Lolita, they enjoy dressing in very fine Lolita clothing.
