  3. Lolita Garden and Fashion Show!

Lolita Garden

Lolita is a popular fashion substyle which started in Japan, heavily influenced by Victorian, Edwardian and Rococo eras.  Essential elements of a lolita outfit are one pieces, jumper skirts, blouses, petticoats, lace, frills, ribbons and a fine attention to detail.  The Lolita lifestyle doesn't stop at fashion and there are many activities to partake in.  Otakon's Lolita Garden is a place for fans of the fashion to gather and relax, as well as have some fun!

DimMoire

DimMoire is a fashion brand from Tokyo, Japan designed by Colomo. You will be able to see original DimMoire pieces in Otakon's Fashion show, featuring a special guest model.
With a concept of “clothes that’ll make you want to show off,” DimMoire embraces monotones as the underlying theme and suggests an original outlook of “applying gothic elements to everyday life”. In 2020, DimMoire launched their online shop which immediately sold out. Via social media, the brand is gaining more and more popularity every day.
