Elegant Gothic Lolita

Elegant Gothic Lolita, or EGL, is Mana's version of the lolita style. To an extent, elegant gothic lolitas are Mana's idea of the perfect woman. EGL really only refers to clothing from Moi-Meme-Motie.

It resembles Gothic Lolita, but often more grown up looking, and EGLs put more of an emphasis on mannerisms than most other types of loli, trying to act aristocratic, sweet, mesterious, and deadly. Think Femme Fatale, but in a frilly dress.

Generally speaking, Elegant Gothic Lolita is usually black and blue. Although it sticks to most of the lolita guidelines, EGL may include fetishy things such as vinyl in an otherwise non-ero outfit. This style also often involves heavier makeup. Both of these changes stem from the style's roots in Visual kei.

Although no Lolita style is strctly for women, there are quite a few more male EGLs than any other type of loli (True loli; EGA, Kodona, and other male oriented styles not included), due to the fact that Mana himself is a dude.
