Casual lolita keeps the lolita silhouette but turns everything down. The dress is simpler, with a solid colour, a small print or gingham, and the petticoat is light or skipped. Accessories are reduced to a clip or a small bow, and shoes are comfortable flats or loafers.
Pieces that work best
- Simple lolita dresses in solid colours with a little lace at the hem.
- Skirts (SK) that can be paired with plain blouses, knitwear or T-shirts.
- Cotton and linen-look fabrics that are easy to wash.
- Shorter, A-line shapes that do not need a full petticoat.
Chinese brands release many of these as "daily" pieces at lower prices than their print releases. They are also lighter to ship.
A first lolita dress
If you are new to the fashion, a simple dress in black, navy or a muted colour is the most versatile purchase: it works casual today and fuller tomorrow with a petticoat and headdress. Read what lolita fashion is and our types of lolita overview before choosing.
