JAPN411 meeting 24

Another classmate (and a fellow member of Anime Club) made a presentation about lolita fashion in Japan. She claimed, as far as I can gather, that the name had nothing to do with Nabokov's novel, but originates from Victorian and Rokkoko dress fashion. Also, she listed various versions, such as ama-loli ("sweet"), goth-loli (most familiar in America), guro-loli (injured), hime-loli (orientalistic "princess"), and even "ouji-loli" (sex-swapped, from "prince").

Other than that, it was just practicing the shades of "~noni".
