“Although the Gothic Lolita scene has various fields, currently the word which refers to “Gothic Lolita” feels as if it is going in one direction. If you are just wearing any black clothing, with black lipstick and eyeshadow, unfortunately this can be seen as Gothic Lolita… I think the outward appearance has changed to be a little too flashy. My idea of Gothic Lolita, disregarding popular opinion, is that those who have a mysterious outlook on the world will eternally like it, and the scene is for these types of people. This is not only fashion, but that all of the things they like (books and movies, for example), all of it has a deep meaning. When I was younger I loved mysterious things, and I still love them. To be truthful I don’t believe I have changed at all since then. Isn’t it best for people like this to continue the scene? Originally, Moi-Même-Moitié did not include clothing which people with this outlook could wear all the time. Fashion is a part of everyday life, and it expresses my desired view of the world. I also wanted everyone to wear this general worldview. Gothic Lolita is every day. When I return to my essential nature, it is my eternal style. I don’t think I became Gothic Lolita, it was simply natural for me.”
