Milwaukee’s lovely lolitas express sophisticated style and fashion

    When someone mentions Lolita, your first thought might be about a novel written in 1958 by Vladimir Nabokov. However, the Milwaukee Lolita Society portrays a different sub culture. As stated by Dabrali Jimenez, of The New York Times, “While the term Lolita is usually associated with Vladimir Nabokov’s ground breaking novel, ‘Lolita,’ about a 12 year old temptress, these Lolitas insist there is no connection between them and their namesake.”

    Dressed in elegant fashion, they are a group of individuals who may surprise your senses. “The style which emverged from the Japanese street fashion scene in the 1990’s, has many incarnations and subjects” states Jimenez.

    Much like the house of royals in Europe, they display poise and prestige.

    Their manners are timeless. Interested in more information? You can find them out on Facebook, just enter Milwaukee Lolita Society in your search engine.
