This Troper's friend from school, also a Troper, recently started wearing Lolita to school. She always gets stares while walking down halls, and people frequently stop her to comment. This Troper's other friend, not caring to learn her name, refers to her as "Frilly". On one occasion, an entire area of people, containing somewhere between 20 and 50 people, burst into applause, and she once won an award for "Best Dressed" in her art class.

I've actually started dressing like this around publicly, though in a more milder way. I still get stared a lot and my Social Studies teacher once described me as an aristocrat.

This Troper's friend and fellow Troper does not wear full EGL outfits most of the time, but most of her clothes are definitely inspired by this style.

This Troper's friend, who is the president of the anime club wore this a few times to promote and fund raise.

I've recently taken to wearing EGL outfits to school. Since I always wear long braids, and no chest to speak of, the look works. Of course, I do get stared at. A lot. The usual responses are either: "What the hell are you ''wearing??''", "Who died?" and, of all things, "You look like a mariachi". Of course, that's half the fun. ;D

This troper adores the style, and has a few skirts which qualify. She hates it when people treat it like a costume. ^^"

This troper is very fond of the style, but hasn't quite yet got the funds for a decent full-loli outfit just yet (And no suitable part-time jobs in her area atm either). Doesn't mean she enjoys looking at the fashion. Or wearing a skirt with a more casual outfit.

This troper (3rdpoliceman) would just like to say that he loves ElegantGothicLolitas. I wish I knew some in real life. They seem so much cooler than mainstream girls.

The only way to get this troper to wear a dress is if it is ElegantGothicLolita. And if you promise her that no one will think she's a crossdressing guy when she wears it, but that's besides the point.

This troper is partial to dressing in ElegantGothicLolita fashion, despite the fact that she only owns a few dresses that fit the genre.

This troper is not a follower of the Lolita subculture, rather, the Goth subculture. But I do tend to dress on the more aristocratic side (more period dress from the late 19th-early 20th centuries; basically, a Romantigoth), and I adopt many elements from the Elegant Gothic Aristocrat subset. But I also dress in a "quasi-gothloli" style from time to time. I really like the collared shirts and coats...
